Abstract

Zinc titanate sorbents were prepared and regeneration of used sorbents for high temperature desulfurization of fuel gases was studied. Zn/Ti molar ratio of prepared sorbents was 1.5 and quartz fixed-bed reactors with 1 cm and 3 cm diameters were used. Regeneration of zinc titanate sorbents at high temperature is exothermic reaction; that brings about deterioration of sorbents. Therefore, we experimented regeneration reaction of zinc titanate sorbents for the purpose of obtaining the most suitable regeneration conditions by changing experimental parameters such as reaction temperature, oxygen concentration, flow rate and steam content. $H_2S$ and $SO_2$ breakthrough curves were obtained during desulfurization-regeneration. Also, properties of the sorbents before and after regeneration were analyzed using SEM, XRD, Hg-porosimetry and BET method. From such results, we obtained the most suitable regeneration conditions including regeneration temperature of 650$^{\circ}$C, $O_2$ content of 5% and steam content of 10% in the gas stream.

Zinc titanate 탈황제를 제조하여 연료가스의 고온탈황에 사용된 탈황제의 재생에 대해서 연구하였다. 준비된 탈황제의 Zn/Ti 몰비는 1.5이고 반응기는 내경 1 cm와 3 cm의 석영관 고정층반응기들을 사용하였다. 고온에서 zinc titanate 탈황제의 재생은 발열반응을 수반하여 탈황제의 물성을 저하시킨다. 따라서 zinc titanate 탈황제의 가장 적합한 재생조건을 선정하기 위해서 반응온도, 산소함량, 유량변화, steam 함량 등을 변화시키면서 재생반응을 실험하였다. 탈황-재생의 실험동안 H2S와 SO2의 파과곡선을 구하였다. 또한 반응실험 전후의 탈황제의 물성을 SEM, XRD, Hg-porosimetry 및 BET로 분석하였다. 이런 결과들로부터 zinc titanate 탈황제에 가장 적합한 재생조건은 $650^{\circ}C$, O2 함? 5%, steam 함량 10% 이상이라는 결론을 얻었다.
