Stable and suitable water quality and abundant cooling water are the basis for long service life of the hearth. Some phenomena about cooling system in the commercial blast furnaces were described, and reasonable explanations of these phenomena were analyzed. The results show that increasing the amount of cooling water and reducing the inlet temperature of cooling water can increase the cooling effect significantly in the case of water scaling. Heat flux in the blast furnace hearth is the average heat flux of cooling stave, and the erosion of carbon brick is uneven. There is no direct connection between the actual erosion condition and the heat flux in the hearth. The change trend of thermocouple temperature and heat flux in the hearth can reflect whether the gaps exist among the bricks or not, providing an effective guidance for industrial production and the evaluation of safety state in the hearth. And, the film boiling will not occur in the normal cooling system in the blast furnace hearth.展开更多

In the model, heat transfer, mass transfer, and gas-solid chemical reactions were taken into account. The behaviors of iron metallization and dezincification were analyzed by the numerical method, which was validated by experimental data of the direct reduction of pellets in a Si-Mo furnace. The simulation results show that if the production targets of iron metallization and dezincification are up to 80% and 90%, respectively, the furnace temperature for high-temperature sections must be set higher than 1300~ C. Moreover, an undersupply of secondary air by 20% will lead to a decline in iron metallization rate of discharged pellets by 10% and a decrease in dezincing rate by 13%. In addition, if the residence time of pellets in the furnace is over 20 min, its further extension will hardly lead to an obvious increase in production indexes under the same furnace temperature curve.展开更多

A mathematical model was constructed to study the reduction kinetics of iron oxides and ZnO in the dust composite pellets. It was validated by comparing the calculated values with experimental results. The effects of furnace temperature, pellet radius, and pellet porosity on the reduction were investigated by the model. It is shown that furnace temperature has obvious influence on both of the reduction of iron oxides and ZnO, but the influence of pellet radius and porosity is much smaller. Model calculations suggest that both of the reduction of iron oxides and ZnO are under mixed control with interface reactions and Boudouard reaction in the early stage, but only with interface reactions in the later stage.展开更多

In the process, Panzhihua ilmenite concentrate was first reduced in a rotary hearth furnace （RHF） to produce a titanium-rich material and iron. The titanium-rich material was then used in a new chlorination process to produce TiCl4. The comparison of different groups of experimental results or calculation results showed that the utilization ratio of material was improved by using the titanium-rich material after pretreatment other than low level titanic ilmenite directly and the combined fluidized beds （FTF） were more likely to reduce bed height and reaction time than the single fluidized beds （Single F or Single T） under the condition of the same chlorination conversion ratio. Finally, the influence of reduction temperature and the anti-agglomeration capacity of the combined fluidized bed was analyzed.展开更多

The removal mechanism of Zn, Pb and alkalis from cold bonded briquettes made by mixing metallurgical wastes, such as dust from bag house filter, OG sludge, fine converter ash and dust from the third electric field precipitator of the sinter strand, in various proportions was investigated. More than 70% of metallization rate, more than 95% of zinc removal rate, 80% of lead removal, as well as more than 80M of K and Na removal rates were achieved for the briquettes kept at 1473-1603 K for 15 min during the direct reduction process respectively. The soot generated in the direct reduction process was studied by chromatography, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results suggested that the main phases of the soot were ZnO, KC1, NaC1 and 4ZnO · ZnC12 · 5H20. Furthermore, the content of Zn reached 64.2 %, which could be used as secondary resources for zinc making. It was concluded that KC1 and NaC1 in secondary dust resulted from the volatilization from the briquettes, whilst ZnO and PbO were produced by the oxidation of Zn or lead vapour from briquettes by direct reduction.展开更多

The soot generated in the direct reduction process was studied by chromatography, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results suggested that the main phases of the soot were ZnO, KC1, NaC1 and 4ZnO · ZnC12 · 5H20. Furthermore, the content of Zn reached 64.2 %, which could be used as secondary resources for zinc making. It was concluded that KC1 and NaC1 in secondary dust resulted from the volatilization from the briquettes, whilst ZnO and PbO were produced by the oxidation of Zn or lead vapour from briquettes by direct reduction.
文摘In order to achieve highly efficient utilization of three valuable elements Fe,Ti and V simultaneously from vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite ore sands,an improved carbothermic reduction method was proposed and verified in both laboratory scale and industrial test-bed scale.The method combined the process of direct reduction and the process of further reduction and separation.Particularly,pulverized coal injection was introduced.In experimental tests,the effects of parameters such as carbon content in briquette,reduction duration and reduction temperature on the contents of metallic Fe and FeO as well as Fe metallization rate were analyzed.Experimental results indicated that Fe metallization rate in the carbon-containing briquette could reach 75.83%.In the industrial test-bed tests,the effects of carbon content in briquette,reduction duration and reduction temperature were also investigated,respectively.In addition,processes with and without pulverized coal injection were tested.The comparative analysis indicated that the content of TiO2 in titaniferous slag was increased by applying pulverized coal injection,and it can reach 82.5 wt.%.Meanwhile,the energy performance analysis showed that the equivalent electricity consumption of the test-bed dropped significantly to 2071 kWh per ton of slag,about 26.0%less than that of traditional method.Moreover,the investment payback of the test-bed is 3.4 years.Both experiments and industrial test-bed tests demonstrated that the proposed method has the advantages of highly efficient utilization,high energy efficiency as well as good economic performance.
