Abstract
Provided is a solid carbon production facility including: a separation facility configured to separate a carbon dioxide gas contained in a produced gas produced by a blast furnace; a reaction facility configured to heat a fuel gas whose main component is a methane gas by using a heating facility and decompose the methane gas into solid carbon and a hydrogen gas; and a production facility configured to cause the carbon dioxide gas separated by the separation facility and the hydrogen gas decomposed by the reaction facility to react with each other to produce solid carbon and water.
Claims9
A solid carbon production device comprising:
- a separation unit configured to separate a carbon dioxide gas contained in a produced gas produced by a blast furnace;
- a reaction unit configured to heat a fuel gas whose main component is a methane gas by using a heating source and decompose the methane gas into solid carbon and a hydrogen gas;
- and
- a production unit configured to cause the carbon dioxide gas separated by the separation unit and the hydrogen gas decomposed by the reaction unit to react with each other to produce solid carbon and water.
A solid carbon production method comprising:
- a separation step of separating a carbon dioxide gas contained in a produced gas produced by a blast furnace;
- a reaction step of heating a fuel gas whose main component is a methane gas by using a heating source and decomposing the methane gas into solid carbon and a hydrogen gas;
- and
- a production step of causing the carbon dioxide gas separated by the separation step and the hydrogen gas decomposed by the reaction step to react with each other to produce solid carbon and water.
