Abstract

This basic study is focused on the physically removal method of carbon dioxide from the decomposition of ammonium carbarmate to prevent the recombination of ammonium salts. A basic visual experimental set-up was designed and constructed to observe the recombination phenomena from the proper composition of ammonia gas, carbon dioxide gas, and compressed air dilution gas. To quantify the recombination phenomena, a simple device was designed to measure the weight change under severe cases for three different tube sizes. The temperature and pressure in the visual tube and the volumetric flow rates of the nitrogen dilution gas were studied and the conditions to avoid recombination were analyzed according to mean free path theory. Diffusivity values based on the Chapman-Enskog theory were calculated from the experimental data. These value may serve as an index for the prevention of recombination.

Solid SCR에 사용 가능한 암모니아 저장물질의 하나인 암모니움 카바메이트는 열 분해시 이산화탄소 가스와 암모니아 가스를 생성하며, 분해 온도인 $60^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 암모니움 염으로 재결합되는 단점이 있다. 이러한 재결합 현상을 극복하기 위하여, 희석기체인 압축공기를 이용하여 기초가시화 실험을 수행하였다. 또한, 재결합 현상을 계량화하기 위하여, 재결합 물질의 무게변화를 측정하기 위한 간단한 장치를 만들어 자동차환경에서 사용되는 SUS재질의 3가지 관경에 크기에 대한 상관관계를 검토하였다. 아크릴 튜브로 제작된 온도조절이 가능한 가시화 실험장치에, 암모니아 가스, 이산화탄소 가스, 희석기 체인 질소 가스를 공급하며, 재결합 방지를 위한 온도, 압력, 희석유량과의 관계를 고찰하고, Chapman-Enskog Theory에서 파생된 Diffusivity를 사용하여 재결합 조건을 유추할 수 있는 지표로 사용하고자 한다.
