摘要:
In the production of reduced iron by agglomerating a mixed powder of an iron material and a reducing agent to form compacts like briquettes or pellets, and reducing the compacts in a high temperature atmosphere, when the temperature of reduced compacts is 900null C. or higher, the oxide content in the reduced compacts is set at 11 % or more, and the basicity of the reduced compacts is set at 0.5 or higher.
摘要:
Several methods and production facilities are provided in order to solve several problems encountered in conventional methods and facilities for producing reduced iron by reducing raw material pellets of a mixture of an iron oxide powder and a reducing material powder in a rotary bed-type reducing furnace and by melting the reduced iron in a sealed-type electro-blast furnace. Re-oxidation of reduced pellets of the mixture pellets is prevented by introducing into a rotary bed-type reducing furnace a reduced gas generated in an electro-blast furnace. In addition, an improved mechanical strength of reduced pellets after direct reduction is attained by applying rolling action to the reduced pellets. A few method and facilities are provided for reliable utilization of wet mixture pellets and a preferable compositions of binders for forming the raw material mixture are selected. A novel charging device for charging raw material pellets is developed which is capable of charging the pellets on the rotary bed as a uniform layer formed by piling one or more pellets.
摘要:
An apparatus for producing reduced iron, and a compact drying method for application to the apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a pelletizer or a briquetter for mixing and agglomerating coal as a reducing agent and iron ore as iron oxide to form compacts, a dryer for drying the compacts, a circular rotary hearth type reducing furnace for reducing the dried compacts in a high temperature atmosphere, a first heat exchanger for performing heat exchange between a hot off-gas discharged from the reducing furnace and combustion air to be supplied to the reducing furnace, and coolers for cooling the hot off-gas. A second heat exchanger for heating drying air is disposed on an exit side of the first heat exchanger. The drying air heated by the second heat exchanger is supplied to the dryer to dry the compacts with the drying air scant in moisture. Consequently, highly efficient, stable drying in the dryer can be performed, and high quality reduced iron can be produced stably.
