Description

本発明は新規なアンモニアの合成方法に関し、特に、化石燃料を原料とすることなく、空気と水からアンモニアを合成する方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a novel method for synthesizing ammonia, and more particularly to a method for synthesizing ammonia from air and water without using fossil fuel as a raw material.

アンモニアは、窒素と水素から合成するハーバー・ボッシュ法によって合成されており、現在重要な肥料の一つとなっている。しかしながら上記の合成方法は、原料水素を化石燃料から製造しているため、化石燃料の枯渇が懸念される現在、化石燃料を使用しない新たな方法が望まれるに至った。またアンモニアには、環境負荷の小さい水素に対する、安全なキャリアガスとしての需要も高まっているため、今後アンモニアの需要は、現状より更に高まるものと予想される。   Ammonia is synthesized by the Harbor Bosch method, which is synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen, and is currently one of the important fertilizers. However, since the above synthesis method produces raw material hydrogen from fossil fuels, a new method that does not use fossil fuels has been desired at present when there is concern about the depletion of fossil fuels. In addition, demand for ammonia as a safe carrier gas for hydrogen, which has a low environmental burden, is expected to increase further in the future.

原料水素を化石燃料に依存しない新たな方法としては、窒素とハロゲン化水素とを反応させた後、得られたハロゲン化アンモニウムを分解してアンモニアを得ることを特徴とするアンモニアの合成方法が既に知られている(特許文献1)。しかしながらこの方法は、ハロゲン化水素という特殊な原料を使用するために、作業性が悪いだけでなく環境負荷を悪化させ、また、装置の腐食防止も必要となるため、製造コスト的にも有利な方法ではないという欠点があった。   As a new method that does not depend on fossil fuel for raw material hydrogen, there is already an ammonia synthesis method characterized by reacting nitrogen and hydrogen halide and then decomposing the obtained ammonium halide to obtain ammonia. Known (Patent Document 1). However, since this method uses a special raw material such as hydrogen halide, not only the workability is bad, but also the environmental load is deteriorated, and it is also necessary to prevent the corrosion of the apparatus. There was a drawback that it was not a method.

上記の欠点は、(1)窒素ガスと炭酸ガスをプラズマ反応させて一酸化窒素と一酸化炭素を生成する第1反応、(2)プラズマ反応によって、炭酸ガスから一酸化炭素と酸素を得る第2反応、及び(3)触媒反応によって、水分子と、得られた一酸化窒素及び一酸化炭素を反応させてアンモニアと炭酸ガスを製造する方法によって大きく改善された(非特許文献1)。本発明者等は、上記の方法について更に検討した結果、炭酸ガスからプラズマ放電反応によって一酸化炭素と酸素を得、得られた一酸化炭素に水分子と窒素分子を加え、これを熱化学触媒反応させた場合には、化石燃料を原料とすることなく、二酸化炭素、水及び窒素ガスを原料ガスとして用い、2段階反応でアンモニアガスを製造することができることを見出し本発明に到達した。   The above disadvantages are as follows: (1) a first reaction in which nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide gas are reacted to generate nitrogen monoxide and carbon monoxide; and (2) carbon monoxide and oxygen are obtained from carbon dioxide gas by plasma reaction. This was greatly improved by a method of producing ammonia and carbon dioxide gas by reacting water molecules with the obtained nitrogen monoxide and carbon monoxide by two reactions and (3) catalytic reaction (Non-patent Document 1). As a result of further study on the above method, the present inventors obtained carbon monoxide and oxygen from carbon dioxide gas by a plasma discharge reaction, added water molecules and nitrogen molecules to the obtained carbon monoxide, and obtained the thermochemical catalyst. In the case of reaction, the present inventors have found that ammonia gas can be produced by a two-stage reaction using carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen gas as raw material gas without using fossil fuel as raw material.

本発明のアンモニア合成方法は化石燃料を原料としないので、化石燃料の消費抑制に貢献するだけでなく、作業性及び環境保全の観点からも優れているので、将来のアンモニア合成法として有望である。   Since the ammonia synthesis method of the present invention does not use fossil fuel as a raw material, it not only contributes to the suppression of fossil fuel consumption, but is also excellent from the viewpoint of workability and environmental conservation, and is therefore promising as a future ammonia synthesis method. .

以下、本発明を詳細に説明するが、本発明はこれらによって限定されるものではなく、当業者であれば本願明細書の記載に基づいて容易に設計変更して実施することが出来る発明を包含することは当然である。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and includes those that can be easily modified and implemented by those skilled in the art based on the description of the present specification. It is natural to do.

下記式(1)で表される放電反応は、室温〜200℃の炭酸ガスを、印可電圧8〜10kVで、約1mmの距離を設けた電極間に、安定な放電が可能となる圧力である約1atmとなるように約1L/minの流速で流すことによって容易に行うことができる。なお、マイクロ波キャビティを用いてマイクロ波放電を行わせる事も可能である。
1.5CO2 → 1.5CO + 0.75O2 (1)
本発明においては、2つの電極間に純度99%以上、厚さ約2.5mmのアルミナ板を誘電体として挟み込み、陽極と前記アルミナ板の間に約1mmの間隔を設け、該間隔によって形成された空間内で放電反応を行わせることが好ましい。また、陰極側の電極にはアルミニウム板を使用することが好ましい。陽極側の電極としては、約1mmのアルミニウム3003の板に、下記1〜4の処理を行って調整したアルマイト電極を使用することが特に好ましい。
1.処理を施したい場所以外をマスキング材で覆う。
2.約20質量%の水酸化ナトリウム溶液に約3分、約30質量%の硝酸溶液に約1分浸して前処理する。
3.被処理アルミニウムを陽極とし、約50A/m2の電流を流した約4質量%のシュウ酸水溶液に約16時間浸して陽極酸化処理する。
4.マスキング材を剥がし、空気中約350℃にて約1時間焼成する。
The discharge reaction represented by the following formula (1) is a pressure at which stable discharge is possible between electrodes having a distance of about 1 mm at an applied voltage of 8 to 10 kV with carbon dioxide at room temperature to 200 ° C. It can be easily performed by flowing at a flow rate of about 1 L / min so as to be about 1 atm. It is also possible to cause microwave discharge using a microwave cavity.
1.5CO 2 → 1.5CO + 0.75O 2 (1)
In the present invention, an alumina plate having a purity of 99% or more and a thickness of about 2.5 mm is sandwiched between the two electrodes as a dielectric, and an interval of about 1 mm is provided between the anode and the alumina plate, and the space formed by the interval is formed. It is preferable to cause a discharge reaction. Moreover, it is preferable to use an aluminum plate for the electrode on the cathode side. As the anode-side electrode, it is particularly preferable to use an alumite electrode prepared by performing the following treatments 1 to 4 on a plate of about 300 mm of aluminum 3003.
1. Cover the areas other than where you want to treat with masking material.
2. Pretreatment is performed by immersing in about 20% by mass sodium hydroxide solution for about 3 minutes and about 30% by mass in nitric acid solution for about 1 minute.
3. Anodizing is performed by immersing in an aqueous solution of about 4% by mass of oxalic acid at an electric current of about 50 A / m 2 for about 16 hours using aluminum to be treated as an anode.
4). Peel off the masking material and bake in air at about 350 ° C for about 1 hour.

本発明においては、前記した放電反応によって一酸化炭素が生成した下流側に、水分子及び窒素ガスを添加し、Pt、Ru、及びFe等の中から選択された少なくとも1種の触媒が充填された熱化学触媒反応管を通して、下記式(2)で表される熱化学触媒反応を実施し、アンモニアを製造する。本発明においては、生産効率の観点から特にPtを使用することが好ましい。
1.5H2O + 0.5N2 + 1.5CO → NH3 + 1.5CO2 (2)
熱化学触媒反応管を通過した反応ガスを水に通せば、炭酸アンモニウム水溶液として容易に、生成したアンモニアを取り出すことができるが、本発明はこの方法に限定されるものではない。
In the present invention, water molecules and nitrogen gas are added to the downstream side where carbon monoxide is generated by the above-described discharge reaction, and at least one catalyst selected from Pt, Ru, Fe, and the like is filled. Through the thermochemical catalyst reaction tube, the thermochemical catalyst reaction represented by the following formula (2) is carried out to produce ammonia. In the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use Pt from the viewpoint of production efficiency.
1.5H 2 O + 0.5N 2 + 1.5CO → NH 3 + 1.5CO 2 (2)
If the reaction gas that has passed through the thermochemical catalyst reaction tube is passed through water, the produced ammonia can be easily taken out as an aqueous ammonium carbonate solution, but the present invention is not limited to this method.

前記式(2)の反応で使用する触媒は、触媒金属(白金、ルテニウム、鉄など)の硝酸塩水溶液を、活性炭やアルミナ粉末等の担体に含侵させ、乾燥空気によって乾燥し、水分が少なくなった時点で、約80℃の乾燥機に入れて約12時間乾燥した後、約2時間水素還元して得ることができる。本発明においては、得られた粉末状の触媒を反応管に充填して使用する。なお、担体に担持された各触媒の金属割合は、白金が約5質量%、ルテニウムが約1質量%、鉄は約10質量%であることが好ましい。 The catalyst used in the reaction of the formula (2) impregnates an aqueous nitrate solution of a catalytic metal (platinum, ruthenium, iron, etc.) with a support such as activated carbon or alumina powder, and is dried with dry air, so that the water content is reduced. In this case, it can be obtained by placing in a dryer at about 80 ° C. for about 12 hours and then reducing with hydrogen for about 2 hours. In the present invention, the obtained powdered catalyst is used by filling a reaction tube. The metal ratio of each catalyst supported on the carrier is preferably about 5 mass% for platinum, about 1 mass% for ruthenium, and about 10 mass% for iron.

前記式(2)の反応で使用する触媒反応管は、例えば、ステンレス管に触媒を緩く充填した後、入口側及び出口側にガスが通過できる程度に石英ウールを詰めることによって、容易に調製することができる。また、反応温度は、熱電対を反応管に差し込むことによって容易に測定することができる。   The catalyst reaction tube used in the reaction of the above formula (2) is easily prepared by, for example, filling a stainless steel tube loosely with a catalyst and then filling quartz wool so that gas can pass through the inlet side and the outlet side. be able to. The reaction temperature can be easily measured by inserting a thermocouple into the reaction tube.

ところで、前記式(1)で生成されたCOの殆どは、下記式(3)で表されるシスト反応によって消費され、式(2)の反応に有効に使用される量は少ない。
H2O + CO → CO2 + H2 (3)

しかしながら、200℃の反応におけるCO1モル当たりの自由エネルギーの変化は、式(2)では-20kJ、式(3)では-21kJであり、両者は殆ど同じであるので、触媒を選択することにより、式(2)の反応を主反応にすることができる筈である。
以下本発明を実施例によって更に詳述するが、本発明はこれによって限定されるものではない。
By the way, most of the CO produced by the formula (1) is consumed by the cyst reaction represented by the following formula (3), and the amount effectively used for the reaction of the formula (2) is small.
H 2 O + CO → CO 2 + H 2 (3)

However, the change in free energy per mole of CO in the reaction at 200 ° C. is −20 kJ in the formula (2) and −21 kJ in the formula (3), and both are almost the same. It should be possible to make the reaction of formula (2) the main reaction.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by way of examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

反応器を通過したガスを分割採取し、分光光度計((株)日本分光製のV-530)にかけたところ、NOの生成は確認されず、アンモニアの生成が確認された。
また、反応器を通過したガスを濃度0.1mol/Lの硫酸水溶液中に30分間バブリングさせ、インドフェノール法によって定量したところ、式(1)反応で生成したCOの約3%が式(2)反応に寄与し、式(2)反応によるアンモニア生成の選択率は約2%であることが確認された。

In addition, the gas that passed through the reactor was bubbled into a 0.1 mol / L sulfuric acid aqueous solution for 30 minutes and quantified by the indophenol method. As a result, about 3% of the CO produced by the reaction of the formula (1) was expressed by the formula (2). Contributing to the reaction, it was confirmed that the selectivity for ammonia production by the reaction of formula (2) was about 2%.
