CO shift catalyst, CO shift reactor, and method for purifying gasified gas
View Patent ↗A CO shift catalyst according to the present invention reforms carbon monoxide (CO) contained in gas. The CO shift catalyst is prepared from one or both of molybdenum (Mo) and cobalt (Co) as an active ingredient and an oxide of one of, or a mixture or a compound of, titanium (Ti), silicon (Si), zirconium (Zr), and cerium (Ce) as a carrier for supporting the active ingredient. The CO shift catalyst can be used in a halogen-resistant CO shift reactor ( 15 ) that converts CO contained in gasified gas ( 12 ) generated in a gasifier ( 11 ) into CO 2 .
1. A CO shift catalyst that reforms carbon monoxide (CO) in a gas, comprising:
an active ingredient of both of molybdenum (Mo) and cobalt (Co); and
a carrier for supporting the active ingredient, wherein
the carrier is either one of the following:
(a) a complex oxide of cerium (Ce) and titanium (Ti);
(b) a complex oxide of cerium (Ce) and zirconium (Zr);
(c) a complex oxide of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al);
(d) a complex oxide of silicon (Si) and titanium (Ti); and
(e) a complex oxide of zirconium (Zr) and aluminum (Al);
an additive amount of molybdenum (Mo) is 6 to 18% by weight, and
an additive amount of cobalt (Co) is 3 to 9% by weight.
2. A CO shift reactor comprising a reactor that is filled with the CO shift catalyst according to claim 1 .
3. A method for purifying gasified gas comprising:
removing soot and dust from gasified gas containing halide by using a filter, the gasified gas being obtained by a gasifier;
causing a CO shift reaction by using a CO shift catalyst;
cleaning the gasified gas by a wet scrubber after the CO shift reaction; and
removing carbon dioxide from the gasified gas after the cleaning, wherein the CO shift catalyst includes:
an active ingredient of both molybdenum (Mo) and cobalt (Co); and
a carrier for supporting the active ingredient, the carrier being either one of the following:
(a) a complex oxide of cerium (Ce) and titanium (Ti);
(b) a complex oxide of cerium (Ce) and zirconium (Zr);
(c) a complex oxide of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al);
(d) a complex oxide of silicon (Si) and titanium (Ti); and
(e) a complex oxide of zirconium (Zr) and aluminum (Al);
an additive amount of molybdenum (Mo) is 6 to 18% by weight, and
an additive amount of cobalt (Co) is 3 to 9% by weight.
