Disclosed is a process for the heat treatment of fine-grained iron ore and for the conversion of the heat-treated iron ore to metallic iron, whereina) the fine iron ore is reacted with at least one binder to produce particles having a particle size of >0.1 to 5 mm,b) the particles according to process stage (a) are dried,c) the particles dried according to process stage (b) are heat-treated at a temperature of 700.degree. to 1100.degree. C., andd) the heat-treated particles are reacted to form metallic iron.

In order to effect a reduction and a carburization to form Fe.sub.3 C to the highest possible degree in a relatively short time in an economical process, a treatment in two stages is effected in fluidized beds. The first stage is effected in a circulating fluidized bed system, in which the amount of solids circulated per hour is at least five times the weight of solids contained in the fluidized bed reactor and a major part of the iron content of the charge is pre-reduced. The remaining reduction and the partial or complete conversion to Fe.sub.3 C are effected in the second stage in a conventional fluidized bed. Water is condensed from the exhaust gas from the circulating fluidized bed system and that gas is strengthened by an addition of reducing gases and is reheated to the temperature which is required for the process. A part of the reheated recycle gas is supplied as a fluidizing gas to the conventional fluidized bed and the other part of the recycle gas is supplied as a fluidizing gas to the fluidized bed reactor of the circulating fluidized bed. The exhaust gas from the conventional fluidized bed is supplied as a secondary gas to the fluidized bed reactor of the circulating fluidized bed system.

Disclosed is a process for cooling hot exhaust gases. The process gases are supplied to a stationary fluidized bed, which contains cooling elements and is contained in an annular trough. Fluidizing gas is supplied to the stationary fluidized bed through the permeable bottom of the trough. The hot process gas is passed through the central opening in the fluidized bed. Cooled solids flow from the fluidized bed across the inner rim of the trough into the process gas stream and are entrained by said stream into the dust-containing space over the top surface of the fluidized bed. The solids which are separated in the dust-containing space fall back into the annular fluidized bed, and the cooled gas which contains the remaining solids is supplied to a gas cooler, which is provided with cooling surfaces. The gas which leaves the upper portion of the gas cooler is fed to a solids separator and the separated solids are recycled to the stationary fluidized bed.

In a method of processing contaminated sodium oxalate which becomes available in a separating stage succeeding the digestion of bauxite in accordance with the Bayer process, chemicals used in the digesting process are recovered in that moist sodium oxalate which has been separated is dried with the hot exhaust gases from a rotary kiln jointly with aluminum hydroxide or aluminum oxide hydrate and/or reactive alumina at a mole ratio of aluminum to sodium of at least 0.8 and the dried product is decomposed in said rotary kiln at a temperature of 780.degree. to 1000.degree. C. to form sodium aluminate. Suitably drying is effected by spray drying in direct contact with the exhaust gases of the rotary kiln and decomposition is effected at a temperature in the range from 850.degree. to 950.degree. C. and with an Al:Na ratio not in excess of 1.2.

摘要:
Coarse-grained fuels are gasified in a moving bed under a pressure of 5 to 150 bars with oxygen, water vapor and, if desired, carbon dioxide. The resulting product gas is at temperatures of 250.degree. to 700.degree. C. and is cooled to temperatures in the range from 120.degree. to 220.degree. C. to form an aqueous condensate, which contains distillation products and is known as gas liquor. The gas liquor obtained by the gasification in a moving bed is pressure-relieved to atmospheric or a higher pressure and the flashed-off vapor is supplied to the fluidized bed gasifier. In the fluidized bed gasifier, fine-grained solid fuels are gasified under a pressure which is lower than that in the moving bed.The flashed-off vapor supplied to the fluidized bed supplies at least one-half of the water vapor required for the gasification in the fluidized bed. The water vapor contained in the product gas formed by the gasification in the fluidized bed is cooled and the resulting condensate is treated separately from the gas liquor obtained by the gasification in a moving bed.
摘要:
Sponge iron produced by direct reduction is melted in an electric arc furnace, in which a pool of liquid metal is maintained. To ensure that liquid carbon-containing iron for forming the pool is available in adequate quantities and that the process can be carried out with the highest possible economy, the sponge iron is reacted in an electric arc furnace on a bath of liquid carbon-containing iron (hot metal), which has been produced from sponge iron or from partly reduced ore in an electric reducing furnace, and in dependence on the electric load changes which are due to the operation of the electric arc furnace the operation of the electric reducing furnace is so controlled that a virtually constant load on the electric power supply system is maintained.

This invention relates to a process of producing magnesia from magnesium-containing carbonate ores, which comprises leaching with sulfuric acid, subsequently neutralizing the solution with magnesia, separating the undissolved impurities, crystallizing magnesium sulfate under pressure and above 150.degree. C so the crystals have from 1.5 to 4 moles of water per magnesium sulfate molecule and thermally decomposing the latter to form magnesia and SO.sub.2, recovering sulfuric acid from the sulfur dioxide produced in the decomposing steps and recycling the sulfuric acid to the leaching stage.
