摘要:
An apparatus for distributing charge material to a shaft furnace is presented which effectively reduces the segregation of the particles in a storage housing positioned above the shaft furnace. In the present invention, the storage hopper and the distribution device are movable about the vertical axis of the shaft furnace and are mounted inside a sealed chamber. Above the chamber are arranged at least two locks which are each provided with upper and lower sealing flaps. Preferably, the storage hopper and the bottom of each of the locks are in the configuration of tapered funnels, the conical wall of which forms an angle of less than or equal to about 30.degree. with respect to the vertical axis of the furnace. The storage hopper is preferably supported by support and guide rollers which move on a circular rail integral with the wall of the sealed chamber and is subjected to the action of a drive mechanism for rotation about the vertical axis of the furnace. Anti-segregation boxes are preferably provided both in the locks and in the hopper, to ensure better filling and guarantee a more uniform distribution of the particles of differing granulometry.

A charging device for a shaft furnace with a lower bell comprises lower means of blockage allowing an upper hopper to be isolated in a sealed manner from a lower hopper and allowing the retention of the charging material. In their open position, these lower means of blockage are positioned so that they unblock a free central passage for the flux of material. This flux is established in the form of a compact and focused flux. Means for moving the lower bell are positioned so as not to disturb the focusing of this flux. Positioned above the lower bell is a deflecting surface, which causes the focused flux to diverge with axial symmetry. Inter alia, a better symmetry in the filling of the lower hopper is obtained.

A process and apparatus for charging a shaft furnace is presented which ensures the vertical and symmetrical fall of charging material from a hopper onto a distribution spout. The discharge valve of the hopper and the valve of a chamber feeding material to the hopper are regulated in such a way as to form a barrage in the base of the hopper. To control the formation of this barrage, and ensure that it will be maintained throughout a charging phase, the hopper and the chamber are weighed separately, signals being produced for the control of dosing valves. In a preferred embodiment of an apparatus for performing this process, the hopper is rotated in order to reduce segregation of the charge material particles.

The invention concerns a method for producing melt iron comprising the following steps: a) reducing the iron ore particles to form pre-reduced iron comprising excess free carbon; b) hot process transfer of the pre-reduced iron in a smelting furnace; c) smelting the pre-reduced iron in a smelting furnace to obtain melt iron.

A cooling plate for an iron and steelmaking furnace includes a copper cooling plate body having at least one cooling duct for a cooling medium extending essentially parallel with the back of the cooling plate body. The cooling plate body further includes a preformed, externally accessible recess into which the cooling duct opens. A connection piece is utilized as a cooling medium connection on the back of the cooling plate body, while a formed piece fitted within the externally accessible recess forms a deflection surface for the cooling medium flowing from the connection piece into the cooling duct, or from the cooling duct into the connection piece.

The present invention provides a new process and a new apparatus for the treatment of steel-mill slag in a vessel which allows a wet granulation of the slag without the risk of explosions. The slag is caused to flow through a taphole at the bottom of the vessel, and the flow rate of the slag is determined by means of a continuous check of the weight of the vessel. One or more jets of granulating water, the flow rate of which is adjusted as a function of the slag flow rate, are directed onto the stream of slag flowing from the vessel. The apparatus comprises a vessel containing molten slag. This vessel is equipped with weighing means, with a taphole, with a device for shutting off the taphole, with means for maneuvering the shut-off device between an operating position and a stored or parked position away from the taphole and with a device for opening or freeing the taphole, engageable through the latter in order to initiate the flow of slag.
摘要:
Entrained particulate matter is separated from the pressurized gas released from an intermediate charge material storage hopper of a blast furnace charging installation, the hopper alternately being pressurized to the furnace pressure for release of charge materials into the furnace and the pressure being relieved to atmospheric to permit reloading, at a point upstream of the filters and/or silencers through which the pressurized gas is released to the ambient atmosphere. The separator comprises a series of perforated discs, which may be heated, associated with a collection chamber into which separated material will fall under the influence of gravity.

A process for thermal treatment of residual materials containing heavy metal and iron oxide, including providing a multiple-hearth furnace having hearths provided one above the other, depositing the residual materials continuously on a top hearth of the hearths, gradually transferring the residual materials to lower hearths of the hearths, introducing reducing agents to at least one of the hearths and reacting the residual materials to form heavy metals and directly reduced iron, exhausting gases containing heavy metals from below hearths of the hearths where the heavy metals are being vaporised, re-injecting at least a part of the gases into the multiple-hearth furnace from above the hearths of the hearths where the heavy metals are being vaporised, and discharging the directly reduced iron together with residues of the reducing agents in an area of a bottom hearth of the hearths in the multiple hearth furnace.
摘要:
A method for producing reduced iron in a layered furnace which includes several superimposed layers. Ore is continuously fed into the layered furnace, deposited on the uppermost layer, and gradually transferred to the lower layer. A reducing agent is deposited on the uppermost layer and/or layers thereunder and is reacted with the ore in order to form directly reduced iron. The directly reduced iron and reducing agent residues are discharged in the vicinity of the lowest layer of the furnace.
