PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN FROM WATER USING A THERMOCHEMICAL COPPER-CHLORINE CYCLE |
摘要 |
<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/><br/>A system for producing hydrogen gas from water decomposition using a <br/>thermochemical <br/>CuCl cycle, the improvement comprising the use of an insulated hydrogen <br/>production <br/>reactor comprising a reaction chamber and a separation chamber; the reaction <br/>chamber <br/>having a hydrogen chloride gas inlet and a solid copper inlet; one or more <br/>levels provided in <br/>the reaction chamber, the number of which is dependant on production scale and <br/>pressure <br/>drop; each level comprising a perforated plate with associated filter media, <br/>the perforations <br/>of the plate and media being of decreasing size from top to bottom of the <br/>reaction chamber, <br/>and being sized to permit downward flow of the hydrogen gas and molten CuCl <br/>products, as <br/>well as the HCL gas reactant, and to prevent entrainment of solid copper in <br/>the molten CuCl; <br/>the separation chamber being located below the reaction chamber and being of <br/>greater cross <br/>section than the reaction chamber and comprising a first hydrogen removal and <br/>entrained <br/>copper removal zone and a second molten CuCl removal zone; removal of the <br/>reaction <br/>products being controlled so as to substantially decrease the amount of <br/>entrained copper in <br/>the molten CuCl; and the first zone having outlets for removal of hydrogen gas <br/>and<br/>entrained copper particles, with the second zone having an outlet for removal <br/>of molten <br/>CuCl.<br/>
