    Abstract: A method for operating a blast furnace for producing of pig iron, includes the following steps



    heating a first stream of steam in a first heater, before or after having been mixed with an oxygen source selected from oxygen and oxygen-enriched air, to provide a first heated stream of oxygen-enriched steam;
    heating a first stream of blast furnace gas from the blast furnace and a first stream of natural gas in a second heater, before or after being mixed together, to provide a heated carbon feed stream;
    feeding the first heated stream of oxygen-enriched steam and the heated carbon feed stream either as a combined stream or separately to a catalytic partial oxidation reactor to produce a stream of syngas; and
    feeding the stream of syngas to the shaft of the blast furnace.

    Abstract: In a method and a device for operating a smelting reduction process, at least part of an export gas from a blast furnace or a reduction unit is thermally utilized in a gas turbine and the exhaust gas of this gas turbine is used in a waste heat steam generator to generate steam. The remaining part of the export gas is fed to a CO2 separation apparatus, the tail gas thereby obtained being fed to a waste heat steam generator and burned for additional steam generation. The combustible components of the tail gas are sent for thermal utilization in a steam generator, so that the overall energy balance of the thermal use of the export gas is improved. In addition, a further part of the export gas is qualitatively improved by the CO2 separation apparatus, so as to generate a high-quality reduction gas which can be supplied for metallurgical use.

    Abstract: A blast furnace system is used wherein the coke rate is decreased by recycling upgraded top gas from the furnace back into its shaft section (which upgraded top gas is heated in a tubular heater prior to being recycled). The top gas, comprising CO, CO2 and H2, is withdrawn from the upper part of the blast furnace; cooled and cleaned of dust, water, and CO2 for increasing its reduction potential and is heated to a temperature above 850° C. before being recycled thus defining a first gas flow path used during normal operation of the blast furnace. Uniquely, a second gas flow path for continued circulation of top gas selectively through the heater and a cooler during operation interruptions of the blast furnace allows time for gradual controlled cool down of the heater in a manner to avoid heat-shock damage to the tubular heater.

    Abstract: A process for recycling blast furnace gas is provided. At least one portion of the gases resulting from the blast furnace undergo a CO2 purification step to create a CO-rich gas which is reinjected at a first top injection point at a temperature between 700° C. and 1000° C. through a top injection line, and at a second bottom injection point at a temperature between 1000° C. and 1300° C. through a bottom injection line. The gases from the bottom and top injection lines are heated at a temperature between 1000° C. and 1300° C. A portion of the CO-rich gas exiting the purification step is directly introduced into the top injection line via a cold gas injection line to obtain a temperature between 700° C. and 1000° C. at the first top injection point. The gas that flows through the bottom and top injection points controlled upstream of the system of the heaters. A device is also provided.
