甲烷(CH
4
)重整反应制备合成气是天然气转化与高值化利用的基础反应,CH
4
分子的高对称性是其难以被活化而降低了其转化效率的关键问题。本研究首先通过密度泛函理论模拟研究CH
4
及其重整反应所涉及的CO
2
和H
2
O等小分子在外电场作用下的电荷布居、电子局域性与偶极矩变化,在此基础上构建甲烷干重整(DRM)和甲烷湿重整反应(SRM)体系并研究外电场作用下DRM和SRM体系的相互作用能、底物分子的电荷及其空间构型。研究显示,极端外电场的存在可促使CH
4
和CO
2
等非极性分子的电子再分布,电子密度沿电场反方向增大而发生偏聚导致CH
4
分子对称性降低,并且产生诱导偶极矩而被极化;当外电场强度达到1V/Å时,CH
4
的电场诱导偶极矩为0.71D,平行于外电场方向的CO
2
分子两端O原子的Hirshfeld电荷变化量Δ
e
为0.17,垂直于外电场方向的线性CO
2
分子发生形态弯曲变化。极性H
2
O分子在1V/Å外电场作用下产生的扭矩可导致H
2
O分子旋转而定向分布。0.1V/Å外电场作用即可对SRM体系的相互作用能产生明显的增强作用,并且外电场对SRM体系中H
2
O的调控作用受H
2
O分子偶极矩以及邻近CH
4
分子的相互作用共同影响;在1V/Å外电场作用下,DRM和SRM体系的相互作用能分别增加2.43和 3.72倍而有助于甲烷重整反应的活化。
Methane (CH
4
) reforming to syngas lays fundamental for transformation and utilization of natural gas
where CH
4
with high symmetry is hardly to activate
becoming a most challenge. In this work
the charge distribution
location of electron and dipole moment of CH
4
as well as CO
2
and H
2
O involved in CH
4
reforming reactions were firstly investigated under an influence of external electric field (
E
). Furthermore
the interaction energy
charge and steric configuration of reactants in CH
4
dry reforming (DRM) and CH
4
stream reforming (SRM) systems were analyzed based on the analysis of single molecule of CH
4
CO
2
and H
2
O. It was found that the strong external electric field could regulate the distribution of electron in molecules
especially for the nonpolar CH
4
and CO
2
enhancing the electron density along with the electric field direct
weakening the symmetry of CH
4
and polarizing it through causing an induced dipole moment. When the intensity of external electric field was 1 V/Å
the induced dipole moment of CH
4
was 0.71D
and Hirshfeld charge amount transferring from O_1 to O_2 in CO
2
was up to 0.17 when CO
2
was parallel to
E
while deformation for the vertical CO
2
. Different with nonpolar CH
4
and CO
2
the orientation of H
2
O would be forced in line with the direct of
E
driven by a torque due to dipole moment of H
2
O in an external electric field of 1 V/Å. In SRM system
interaction energy of reactants could be effectively enhanced even at 0.1 V/Å. And the regulation for H
2
O by
E
was co-affected by dipole moment of H
2
O itself and adjacent CH
4
molecule. At 1 V/Å
the interaction energy of reactants in DRM and SRM systems were improved by 2.57 folds and 4.07 folds
respectively
then being beneficial for activating the CH
4
reforming reaction.
