연료전지와 수소를 사용하는 연료전지 자동차의 상용화를 위해서는 수소 공급용 수소 스테이션(hydrogen station)의 개발이 중요한 핵심 기반기술이다. 일반적으로 수소 스테이션은 탈황반응, 개질반응(reforming), 수성가스전환(WGS) 반응 및 수소분리(PSA) 장치로 구성된 수소제조 공정과 압축, 저장 및 분배 장치로 구성된 후처리(post-treatment) 공정으로 구성되어 있다. 본 총설에서는 수소 경제(hydrogen economy) 사회로의 진입을 위해 국내외에서 연구개발 중인 수소 스테이션에 대한 연구 개발 동향과 전망을 고찰하였다. 그리고 향후 풍력 및 태양열 등 재생 가능 에너지(renewable
energy)원으로부터 물의 분해에 의한 수소제조 기술이 확립되기 전까지는 화석연료의 개질 반응이 수소를 제조하는 핵 심기술이 될 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 화석연료의 탈황반응, 화석연료의 개질 반응에 의한 수소제조, CO 농도 저감을 위한 수성가스 전환반응 및 수소의 분리기술 등 수소 스테이션의 상용화에 필수적인 단위공정개발에 대한 최근의 연구동향을 정리하였다.
Development of hydrogen station system is an important technology to commercialize fuel cells and fuel cell powered vehicles. Generally, hydrogen station consists of hydrogen production process including desulfurizer, reformer, water gas shift (WGS) reactor and pressure swing adsorption (PSA) apparatus, and post-treatment process including compressor, storage and distributer. In this review, we investigate the R&D trends and prospects of hydrogen station in domestic and foreign countries for opening the hydrogen economy society. Indeed, the reforming of fossil fuels for hydrogen production will be essential technology until the ultimate process that may be water hydrolysis using renewable energy source such as solar energy, wind force etc, will be commercialized in the future. Hence, we also review the research trends on unit technologies such as the desulfurization, reforming reaction of fossil fuels, water gas shift reaction and hydrogen separation for hydrogen station applications.
