Zur Abtrennung von Zink aus oxydischen Eisenträgern wird der Eisenträger in stückiger Form mit einer Mindestkorngröße von 5 mm mit stückigen Reduktionsmitteln einem gasdicht abschließbaren, schachtartigen Muffelofen (1) zugeführt. Die Beheizung des Muffelofens (1) erfolgt von außen, wofür Brennkammern (2 und 3) vorgesehen sind. Die Beschickung strömt im oberen Teil des Muffelofens durch eine Vorwärm- und Vorreduktionszone (4), sowie anschließend durch eine Reduktionszone (5), bevor das reduzierte Material ausgebracht wird. Verflüchtigtes Zink wird mit Reaktionsgasen aus wenigstens einer zwischen dem Aufgabe- und Austragsende des Muffelofens angeordneten Querschnittsebene vorzugsweise auf der Höhe des oberen Endes der Reaktionszone (5) abgeführt. Die Vorrichtung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens besteht aus einem Muffelofen (1), welcher an seinem Aufgabe- und Austragesende gasdicht abschließbar ist und in seiner Wandung zwischen diesen beiden Enden Gasaustrittsöffnungen (10) aufweist, welche unter Umgehung oder Durchsetzung der am Muffelofen außen angebrachten Heizeinrichtungen, beispielsweise der Brennkammern (2, 3), münden. Es sind vorzugsweise in Achsrichtung des Muffelofens mehrere Brennkammern vorgesehen, wobei die Gasaustrittsöffnungen (10) an zwischen den Brennkammern angeordneten Leitungen (11) angeschlossen sind. Die Reduktionsgase können nach Abtrennen des Zinks einer Brennkammer (2, 3) rückgeführt werden.
摘要:
A process for extraction of zinc from a material containing one or more iron oxides and zinc oxide includes heating a composite body of the material and a carbonaceous material in a reduction zone. The reduction zone contains a reducing atmosphere at a temperature insufficient to effect melting of the iron in the material but at a temperature and for a time sufficient to form a reductant from the carbonaceous material and to reduce a predetermined amount of the zinc oxide to zinc vapour. The process also includes collecting the zinc vapour and cooling it to form liquefied or solid zinc.

To produce metallic iron from iron ore, a composition comprising a mass of material formed from a mixture of iron ore particles and particles of a reductant that is either a biomass material in particulate form or a plastic resinous material in particulate form is used. The reductant can also be a mixture of biomass material and resin in any proportions. The mass of material comprises at least one body having a shape adapted for smelting such as pellets, briquettes, pieces or lumps. The pellets have sufficient cohesion to maintain the shape into which they have been formed. The invention also provides a new method for smelting iron from its ore which comprises subdividing the ore into particles of a selected size, mixing the subdivided ore particles with particles of a biomass material or particles of a plastic resinous material or with mixtures thereof, forming a mass of the mixture into at least one body with a shape that is suited for smelting in a furnace and placing the body in a furnace and exposing it to sufficient heat to bring the iron therein to smelting temperature within the furnace to thereby produce metallic iron directly from the ore.

Prereduced iron oxides are supplied to a smelting vessel (1) for the production of iron or steel by directing a hot reducing offgas from the vessel (1) into a vertical riser duct (8) without substantial cooling of the offgas and, by way of inlet (16), particulate iron oxide containing material is entrained in the hot reducing offgas as the gas is conveyed upwardly through the duct (8). The hot gas heats the entrained material to a temperature at which partial reduction of the iron oxide occurs, the hot gas thereby losing sensible heat. Additional materials may be introduced to the duct (8) for entrainment in the gas. Particulate material is separated in a cyclone (9) from the gas and the separated partially reduced material is introduced to the smelting vessel by way of passage (12). The particulate material, or part of it, may be recycled by way of passage (15) through the vertical riser duct before the partially reduced material is introduced to the smelting vessel and only part of the hot reducing offgas emitted by the vessel may be directed into the duct.
摘要:
The HIsmelt process as disclosed in WO 96/31627 A1 (PCT/AU96/00197) consists of forming a molten bath of iron and slag, injecting metalliferous feed (oxides), solid carbonaceous material (coal and/or coke) and slag formers into the bath and smelting the metalliferous feed to metal. The process also consists of post-combusting the unoxidised reaction gases and transferring the generated heat to the bath to facilitate the smelting. In addition, a transition zone between the post-combustion zone and the quiescent metal zone is formed by injecting the charge together with a carrier gas into the bath, thus causing the metal and slag to be projected into the transition zone. The present application constitutes an improvement over the afore-mentioned application, in that lances/tuyères are inserted deep into the melt to provide oxygen for post-combustion of the unoxidised reaction gases and, in addition, to project splashes, droplets and streams of molten metal into the transition zone, which, in turn, fall back into the bath, thus effectively transferring heat from the post-combustion zone to the molten bath. The level of dissolved carbon in the bath is maintained at >/= 3 %, preferably > 4 %. The FeO level in the slag is maintained at . Primary post-combustion is set at > 40 %, preferably > 50 % or > 60 %.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for separating undesired toxic metals, such as Zn, Pb and Cd, from iron-containing materials by: sintering a mixture of such materials (typically including EAF dust and mill scale) with carbonaceous particles to form sturdy sinter lumps; preheating such lumps in a non-reducing atmosphere, if needed, to achieve an elevated temperature generally above the vaporization temperature of the undesired metals, but below the sticking temperature of said iron-containing lumps (which is typically below the vaporization temperatures of such undesired metals in their oxide form), feeding the lumps at such elevated temperature into a reduction reactor; flowing hot reducing gas through said lumps to volatilize said undesired reduced metals and carry the volatilized metals out of said reduction reactor leaving the iron-containing lumps largely stripped of the undesired metals and ready for discharge and safe and/or useful disposal or re-use, and finally cooling the off gas from the reactor to separate out the resulting solidified unwanted metals (typically in their oxide form resulting from a water quench cooling).
