    基于ReaxFF的煤超临界水气化无机硫迁移的分子动力学研究

    Molecular dynamics study of inorganic sulfur transport in supercritical water gasification of coal based on ReaxFF

    • 摘要: 煤炭的超临界水气化制氢技术前景广阔,然而气化过程中生成的有毒硫化物限制了该技术的进一步发展。因此,开展煤炭超临界水气化过程中的硫迁移机理研究,对煤炭超临界水气化硫元素定向调控方法的建立具有重要意义。无机硫的迁移是煤炭超临界水气化过程硫迁移机理的重要组成部分,以煤炭中无机硫的主要赋存载体—黄铁矿为研究对象,建立了多种工况下黄铁矿超临界水气化的分子动力学模型,总结了H2、H2S等关键产物的变化规律,并使用动画追踪硫的脱出转化过程以获得迁移路径图。结果表明:提高温度在促进氢气生成的同时可以抑制硫化氢气体的产生,且有利于硫元素以自由基团的形式从黄铁矿中脱离;增加超临界水分子数量促进了硫原子脱离黄铁矿且可以提升氢气的产量,但不会促进硫化氢气体的生成。在硫的迁移方面,硫原子的迁移分为热解脱离与水分子协助脱离2种方式,其中热解脱离发生在反应的前期,水分子协助脱离则是硫原子的主要迁移方式,硫的最终存在形态为HOS、H2OS等含硫基团及H2S气体,含硫基团占据了脱出硫原子总量的80%以上。黄铁矿团簇演化的另一关键步骤是氧原子键入团簇,其主要过程为水分子中的氧原子与铁原子成键并由团簇外侧逐渐向内部移动。

       

      Abstract: The prospects for supercritical water gasification technology for hydrogen production from coal are vast. However, the development of this technology is hindered by the formation of toxic sulfides during the gasification process. Therefore, conducting research on the sulfur migration mechanism during coal supercritical water gasification is of great significance for establishing targeted control methods for sulfur in coal supercritical water gasification. The migration of inorganic sulfur, as an essential component of the sulfur migration mechanism during the coal supercritical water gasification process, is the focus of this study. Taking pyrite, a major carrier of inorganic sulfur in coal, as the research subject, molecular dynamics models for pyrite supercritical water gasification under various conditions were established. The study summarized the variations in key products such as H2 and H2S, and employed animations to track the desorption and transformation process of sulfur, obtaining migration pathway diagrams. The results indicate that increasing temperature not only promotes hydrogen generation but also suppresses hydrogen sulfide production, facilitating the release of sulfur from pyrite in the form of radical groups. Moreover, an increase in the number of supercritical water molecules promotes the detachment of sulfur atoms from pyrite and enhances hydrogen production. However, it does not stimulate the generation of hydrogen sulfide gas. Concerning sulfur migration, sulfur atom migration is divided into thermal dissociation desorption and water-assisted desorption. Thermal dissociation desorption occurs in the early stages of the reaction, while water-assisted desorption is the primary mode of sulfur atom migration. The final products include sulfur-containing groups such as HOS and H2OS, along with H2S gas. Sulfur-containing groups constitute over 80% of the total desorbed sulfur atoms. Another critical step in the evolution of pyrite clusters is the entry of oxygen atoms into the clusters. This process involves oxygen atoms from water molecules forming bonds with iron atoms, gradually moving from the outer to the inner regions of the clusters.
