Abstract
In this study, pristine palygorskite powders were used as the inhibition materials to suppress the explosion of methane-air premixed gas for the first time. The composition, porosity and pyrolysis characteristics of the powders were tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), N2 adsorption-desorption and Thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) techniques. The effects of pristine palygorskite powders concentration on the explosion pressure and the average velocity of flame propagation of the 9.5% methane-air premixed gas were tested by a 20 L spherical explosion system and a 5 L pipeline explosion system. The results indicated the pristine palygorskite powders possess a considerable suppression property on methane explosion. When the mass concentration of pristine palygorskite powders was 0.20 g·L−1, the max-pressure of methane explosion was decreased by 23.9%. The methane explosion flame propagation velocity was inhibited obviously. Owing to the excellent inhibitory performance and the advantage of low-cost and environmental harmlessness, pristine palygorskite powders are potential new materials for the application on gas explosion suppression.
