초록
촉매와 필터가 결합된 촉매필터는 먼지와 가스상 물질을 동시에 제거할 수 있으며 이로 인해 운영비와 설치공간의 감소가 가능한 다기능 반응시스템으로 다양한 환경분야에 적용이 가능하다. 본 연구는 실험실 규모 반응시스템에서 촉매필터를 이용한 먼지와 할로겐 휘발성 유기화합물(halogenated volatile organic compound, 1,2-dichlorobenzene) 제거 연구를 수행하였다. 촉매필터는 저온활성이 우수한 매그린사의 WO3-V2O5/TiO2 촉매와 250 ℃ 이하에서 사용 가능한 P-84를 이용하여 제조하였다. 온도, 면속도, 먼지농도와 같은 다양한 변수조절을 통한 촉매필터의 촉매활성과 먼지제거 효율을 평가하였다. 촉매활성은 온도와 촉매 담지량에 따라 증가하였다. 먼지제거효율은 면속도에 가장 많은 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 시간에 따른 필터의 차압변화 평가 결과 virgin 필터의 경우 탈진간격은 급격한 감소를 보였으며, 잔류압력감소는 거의 변하지 않았다. 촉매필터의 경우 전단에 고착된 나노섬유의 미끄럼 특성에 의하여 차압증가폭이 낮게 나타났다. 촉매필터는 1 m/min, 210 ℃에서 99.98% 이상의 탈진효율과 90% 이상의 1,2-DCB 제거 효율을 나타냈다.
Catalytic filter is capable of performing shallow bed dust filtration plus a catalytic reaction, promoted by a catalyst deposited in its inner structure. Such a feature may allow potential cost and space reduction in several environmental applications. Dust filtration and halogenated volatile organic compound (1,2-dichlorobenzene) destruction were carried out in a lab-scale reactor. WO3-V2O5/TiO2 supplied by MaGreen, which showed high catalytic acitivity at low temperature, was used as a catalyst. P-84 that can be operated under 250 ℃ was used as a felt. The catalytic activity and filtration efficiency of catalytic filters were investigated under the operating conditions, including temperature, face velocity, and dust concentration. The catalytic activity of catalytic filter increased with increasing temperature and the amount of catalyst loaded. The test results showed that the filtration efficiency was primarily affected by the face velocity. Pressure drop variations as a function of time were investigated for a variety of conditions. In case of virgin filter, a dramatic decrease in the pulse interval and a slightly increase in the base line pressure drop were observed. A relatively slow pressure drop build-up was recorded for the catalytic filter due to smooth and slippery surface characteristics of nanofiber. The catalytic filter indicated that high filtration efficiency over 99.98% and high catalytic activity over 90% at 1 m/min and 210 ℃.
