Definitions
- the present invention relates to a desulfurizer for removing sulfur components from fossil raw materials, a hydrogen generator equipped with the desulfurizer, a fuel cell power generation system equipped with the desulfurizer, and a desulfurizing agent cartridge.
- the fuel cell power generation system supplies a hydrogen-containing gas and an oxygen-containing gas to a fuel cell stack (hereinafter referred to as a “fuel cell”), which is the main body of the power generation unit, and is generated by an electrochemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. It is a system that generates electricity using chemical energy as electrical energy. In addition, the fuel cell power generation system can generate power with high efficiency and can easily extract and use the thermal energy generated during power generation operation. Development is progressing as a system.
- hydrogen-containing gas is not supplied from the infrastructure. Therefore, in the conventional fuel cell power generation system, steam and raw material are modified at a temperature of 550 ° C. to 750 ° C. using Ru catalyst or Ni catalyst using city gas or LPG supplied from the existing infrastructure as a raw material.
- a hydrogen generating device including a reforming section that generates a hydrogen-containing gas through a quality reaction is disposed.
- raw materials supplied from infrastructure include tertiary butyl mercaptan (hereinafter referred to as TBM) and dimethyl so that leakage of raw materials from infrastructure and raw materials from equipment using raw materials can be easily understood.
- a sulfur compound odorant such as sulfide (hereinafter referred to as DMS) is added.
- the raw material may contain a trace amount of sulfur compounds such as thiophenes.
- these sulfur compounds become poisoning components of the Ru catalyst and Ni catalyst used in the reforming section that generates the hydrogen-containing gas. Therefore, a desulfurizer that removes sulfur compounds in the raw material is often used in combination before being introduced into the reforming section.
- the desulfurizer includes an adsorptive desulfurizer using an adsorbent that adsorbs and removes sulfur compounds, and a hydrodesulfurizer that hydrogenates sulfur compounds to form hydrogen sulfide and removes the hydrogen sulfide.
- adsorptive desulfurizers can be used in distributed power generation systems that are supposed to be frequently started and stopped because sulfur compounds can be removed immediately after the raw material is distributed by using an adsorbent that adsorbs sulfur compounds at room temperature. There are many cases.
- the adsorbent that adsorbs sulfur compounds at room temperature has a small adsorption capacity of sulfur compounds, when the desulfurizer is downsized, it is required to replace the desulfurizer with an appropriate period of use.
- a head body provided with a gas pipe connection portion, a case body that is detachable from the head body, and a desulfurizing agent are filled into the case body.

- the pull top is pulled and the sealing member is peeled off to expose the upper and lower openings of the desulfurizing agent cartridge, and then the desulfurizing agent cartridge is inserted into the case body.
- the desulfurizing agent cartridge since the upper and lower openings of the desulfurizing agent cartridge are exposed, it is necessary to insert the desulfurizing agent cartridge into the case body, and to connect and seal the case body and the head body. In many cases, the time during which the agent was exposed to the air was prolonged. When the desulfurizing agent comes into contact with air in this way, moisture and the like are adsorbed on the desulfurizing agent, and the ability of the desulfurizing agent to adsorb and remove sulfur compounds deteriorates.
