Abstract

Effects of $Ca(OH)_2$ concentration (0.16~0.64 wt%), surfactant concentration (2~16 wt%), total volumetric flow rate (3~6 L/min) and $CO_2$ volume fraction $(0.3{\sim}0.6)$ on morphology, crystal structure, mean particle diameter, aggregation and specific surface area of the precipitated $CaCO_3$ were investigated in the slurry bubble column reactor. Experiments were carried out in acrylic reactor ($0.11\;m-ID{\times}1.0\;m-high$) with a internal tube ($0.04\;m-ID{\times}1.0\;m-high$h). The reaction time of $CaCO_3$ synthesis decreased with adding Dispex N40 of the anionic surfactant. The reaction rate of $Ca(OH)_2$ increased with increasing the volumetric flow rate of $CO_2$. From SEM images, the single crystal of $CaCO_3$ increased with increasing the reaction rate in the saturated concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$ (0.16 wt %) and the concentration of Dispex N40 (2 wt%). The mean particle size of $CaCO_3$ varied with adding Dispex N40. In addition, the specific surface area of $CaCO_3$ increased with adding of surfactant (2 wt%) from $35m^2/g$ to $44m^2/g$ at the volumetric flow rate of $CO_2$ (0.9 L/min) and the concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$(0.64 wt %).

슬러리 기포탑을 이용하여 수산화칼슘 농도(0.16~0.64 wt%), 계면활성제 농도(2~16 wt%), 총 부피유량(3~6 L/min) 및 $CO_2$ 유량의 부피분율(0.3~0.6)이 탄산칼슘의 morphology, 결정구조, 입자의 크기, 입자 간의 응집화, 비표면적에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 실험에 사용한 반응기는 높이가 1.0 m이고 직경이 0.11m, 그리고 중앙에는 직경 4 cm인 튜브가 들어있는 슬러리 기포탑이다. 실험에 사용한 음이온 계면활성제 Dispex N40은 탄산칼슘 합성에 있어 반응 속도에 영향을 주어 반응 종결 시간을 감소시켰다. Dispex N40의 농도가 2 wt%일 때 수산화칼슘의 포화농도인 0.16 wt%에서 이산화탄소의 유량에 따른 침강성 탄산칼슘의 morphology를 살펴보면 반응 속도가 증가할수록 결정의 형태는 단일 결정으로 존재하는 입자들이 많아졌다. Dispex N40은 탄산칼슘의 crystal의 성장과 입자와 입자간의 응집 현상에 영향을 주어 탄산칼슘의 평균 입도를 변화시켰다. 또한 $0.9 L/min\;CO_2$ 유량에서 수산화칼슘의 농도가 0.64 wt%일 때 2 wt%의 계면활성제 첨가로 인해 비표면적을 $35m^2/g$에서 $44m^2/g$로 크게 증가시켰다.
