The invention relates to a method for reducing
combustion gas consumption of a
blast furnace hot blast stove, which comprises the following steps: S1, after the
hot blast stove is converted from air supply to
combustion, firstly, quickly increasing the temperature of a vault according to a specified gradient, and after ignition with smaller gas and air flows, gradually increasing the gas flow and the air flow to achieve the optimal flow required by normal
combustion; s2, the
coal gas flow and the air flow are adjusted, the air-fuel ratio reaches 1.05, and the vault temperature continues to rise; and S3, after the temperature of the vault reaches 1370 DEG C, the air-fuel ratio is adjusted again, and in combination with the change of the temperature of the
flue, when the temperature of the
flue is about 360-400 DEG C, the
coal gas consumption is started to be reduced, meanwhile, it is guaranteed that the temperature of the vault is maintained at 1320-1400 DEG C, and when the temperature of the
flue is increased by 8-12 DEG C, the
coal gas amount is continuously reduced until furnace burning is finished. Gas combustion efficiency and hot-blast stove heat efficiency can be improved, so that gas usage amount of the hot-blast stove is saved, ironmaking cost is reduced,
economic benefits are improved, and environmental
pollution is reduced.
