Abstract

Silicon carbide candle filters for the pressurized fluidized bed combustion system were fabricated by extrusion process. Carbon black was added to control the porosity. Inorganic additives such as clay and calcium carbonate were added to exhibit appropriate strength. Silicon carbide layer with a finer pore size (mean pore diameter ~$10{\mu}m$) was coated on the silicon carbide support layer (mean pore diameter ~$47{\mu}m$, porosity ∼40%). After that, the filter was sintered at 1400${\circ}C$ in air. We evaluated the filtration performances of the filter at 500${\circ}C$ and $5kgf/cm^2$ of pressure. As a result, high separation efficiency, >99.999% was measured. It is expected that silicon carbide candle filter can be successfully used for the pressurized fluidized bed combustion system.

가압유동층 복합발전용으로 사용 가능한 탄화규소 캔들형 필터를 압출성형법으로 제조하였다. 필터의 기공율을 조절하기 위해 2.5 vol%의 탄소분말을 첨가하였고, 필터의 강도를 부여하기 위해 무기결합제로써 점토와 $CaCO_3$를 첨가하였다. 평균 기공율이 약 40%, 평균 기공크기가 약 $47{\mu}m$인 지지체 위에 평균 기공크기가 약 $10{\mu}m$를 갖도록 탄화규소 분말을 분무 코팅하였고, 이후 대기압 분위기 하에서 1400${\circ}C$의 온도로 소결하였다. 코팅층이 형성된 캔들형 필터를 500${\circ}C$, $5kgf/cm^2$의 고온, 고압 하에서 성능평가를 행한 결과 입자크기별 집진 성능이 모두 99.99% 이상을 나타내었다. 따라서 제조된 탄화규소 캔들형 필터는 가압유동층 연소가스에 포함되어 있는 미세한 먼지를 효과적으로 제거할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
