초록
촤-가스화 반응은 반응온도, 반응가스 부분압력, 시스템 총 압력, 입자크기 등 운전조건뿐만 아니라 촤의 화학적 조성 및 물리적 구조의 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 두 종류의 역청탄 촤를 이용하여 반응온도 1,000~1,400 ℃ 에서 CO2 가스화시 입자크기의 영향을 관찰하였다. 실험실 규모의 고정식 반응기를 이용하여 대기압 하에서 실험을 수행하였으며 반응가스인 CO2(40 vol%)가 반응기에 공급되면 촤와 반응하여 CO를 생성하였다. 촤의 탄소 전환율을 측정하기 위하여 비분산적외선 방식의 CO/CO2 센서가 장착된 실시간 가스분석기를 이용하였다. 실험결과 동일한 온도에서 입자크기가 감소할수록 가스화 반응성은 증가하였으며 온도가 증가할수록 반응성에 미치는 입자크기의 영향은 더욱더 크게 증가하였다. 또한 반응성이 낮은 촤에서 입자크기의 영향은 다소 적게 나타났다. 입자크기와 석탄 종류는 반응모 델에도 영향을 주었다. Shrinking core model은 반응성이 낮은 석탄을 잘 묘사했으며 반대로 Volume reaction model은 반응성이 높은 석탄을 잘 묘사하였다.
Char gasification is affected by operating conditions such as reaction temperature, reactants gas partial pressure, total system pressure and particle size in addition to chemical composition and physical structure of char. The aim of the present work was to characterize the effect of coal particle size on CO2 gasification of chars prepared from two different types of bituminous coals at different reaction temperatures(1,000~1,400 ℃). Lab scale experiments were carried out at atmospheric pressure in a fixed reactor where heat was supplied into a sample of char particles. When a flow of CO2(40 vol%) was delivered into the reactor, the char reacted with CO2 and was transformed into CO. Carbon conversion of the char was measured using a real time gas analyzer having NDIR CO/CO2 sensor. The results showed that the gasification reactivity increased as the particle size decreased for a given temperature. The sensitivity of the reactivity to particle size became higher as the temperature increases. The size effects became remarkably prominent at higher temperatures and became a little prominent for lower reactivity coal. The particle size and coal type also affected reaction models. The shrinking core model described better for lower reactivity coal, whereas the volume reaction model described better for higher reactivity coal.
