摘要：A homemade K2CO3-doped Li4SiO4 sorbent was applied into the sorption-enhanced steam methane reforming (SE-SMR) system. Both the activated K2CO3-doped Li4SiO4 sorbent and the Ni/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst showed good activity and stability. The result shows that the application of the activated K2CO3-doped Li4SiO4 sorbent into SMR system can remarkably enhance the process. High-purity hydrogen (H-2 yield >95%) was obtained at relatively low temperatures (500-550 degrees C), which was 100-150 degrees C lower than that of using the calcium based sorbents. Furthermore, the effects of different absorbent-catalyst coupling methods and particle sizes on the reactant diffusion were also discussed, finding that in situ enhancement and moderate particle sizes (20-40 mesh) were beneficial for the reaction system. Finally, a reasonable sorbent regeneration strategy was proposed. It is found that steam enhances the regeneration rate of sorbent and has little negative effects on the activity of sorbent and catalyst, which makes it possible to obtain high-purity CO2 directly and simplify the subsequent separation process for the sorption-desorption operation design.
