Horizontal hydrogen generator

Abstract

The invention discloses a horizontal hydrogen generator provided and relates to the technical field of new energy. The horizontal hydrogen generator is simple in structure, safe and efficient. The horizontal hydrogen generator comprises a left transmission part, a right working part and a shell, wherein the right working part comprises a working cavity, and a rotating part, a plurality of aluminum reaction parts and a plurality of cleaning parts which are arranged in the working cavity and are in transmission connecting with the left transmission part; the aluminum reaction part is fixedly connected to the working cavity and comprises a plurality of aluminum sheets; the cleaning part is fixedly connected to the rotating part and comprises a plurality of brush heads, and the brush heads abut against the surfaces of the aluminum sheets; the rotating part has a degree of freedom of rotating in the reaction cavity and rotates to drive the brush head to rub the surface of the aluminum sheet; and the outer wall of the right working part is sleeved with the shell, and a water inlet and a water outlet are formed in the outer wall of the shell. Passivating films on the surface of aluminum and possible aluminum hydroxide precipitates can be removed through friction of the brush head on the surface of the aluminum sheet, the micron powder preparation effect is achieved, flocculent precipitates are prevented from being attached to the surface of the aluminum to hinder the hydrogen production reaction, and meanwhile the reaction rate can be controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of new energy, in particular to a horizontal hydrogen generator. Background technique [0002] As people pay more and more attention to environmental protection, clean energy has received more and more attention. Among the many emerging clean energy sources, hydrogen energy, as an important research topic, has gradually gained more attention. At present, there are three main methods for producing hydrogen, namely hydrogen production from fossil fuels, hydrogen production from electrolyzed water, and hydrogen production from biomass. Among them, fossil fuel hydrogen production accounts for the largest proportion of all hydrogen production at present, reaching 95%. Hydrogen is obtained through partial oxidation reforming of fossil fuels and water vapor, which is relatively low in cost and mature in method. But there are more serious pollution problems. The method of hydrogen production by electrolysis of wa...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The disadvantages of this device are: 1) The design and manufacture of this device are relatively complicated, and it is difficult to realize the feedback of the pneumatic valve part, and it needs to be vacuumed before the reaction, so additional devices such as a vacuum pump are required

2) The device is difficult to replace the reactant

The reactant activated aluminum is added to the reaction chamber from the bottom of the reaction device. After the reaction, the reaction chamber is filled with liquid. At this time, it is very difficult to replace and add the reactant.

3) The reactants used in this device are activated aluminum alloyed with low-melting point metals such as gallium, indium, and tin. The reactants are relatively active, difficult to store and carry, and there are certain safety hazards in the process of replacement and transportation.

[0007] The weak point of this device is: 1) the design and manufacture of this device are relatively complicated, and the manufacturing cost of highly active hydrogen evolution catalytic plate is relatively high

2) The device is difficult to control the reaction rate, that is, it is difficult to control the rate of hydrogen generation

3) The device uses an electrochemical process to generate hydrogen. This process consumes a lot of electric energy, high energy consumption, and has high requirements for the safety of the container
