- 摘要：Dewatered sewage sludge was treated with NaOH additive and Ni catalyst in supercritical water in a high-pressure autoclave to examine the effects of separate and combined NaOH additive and Ni catalyst on hydrogen generation. The effects of Ni/NaOH ratio on hydrogen production were also investigated to identify possible catalytic mechanism and interactions. NaOH and Ni, separately or in combination, improved the hydrogen production and hydrogen gasification efficiency. The addition of NaOH additive not only promoted the water–gas shift reaction, but also favored H2 generation of Ni catalyst by capturing CO2. The hydrogen yield of combined catalysts with different Ni/NaOH ratios was higher than the theoretical sum of hydrogen yield from the mixture by 10–33%. The largest hydrogen yield, of 4.8 mol per kilogram of organic matter, which was almost five times as much as without catalyst, was achieved with the addition of 3.33 wt% Ni and 1.67 wt% NaOH. The combined NaOH additive and Ni catalyst also improved the gasification of several other dewatered sewage sludges, increasing the hydrogen yield by four to twelve times that seen without catalyst. Combined NaOH additive and Ni catalyst are effective in dewatered sewage sludge gasification at low temperature.
