The invention relates to a pulverized
coal melt separation and
recovery method for low-grade iron resources and belongs to the technical field of
ferrous metallurgy and environment protection. The pulverized
coal melt separation and
recovery method for low-grade iron resources comprises the steps that pulverized
coal, raw materials containing iron and a fluxing agent are mixed to prepare carbon-containing
pellets and are directly reduced rapidly; the metallized
pellets are hot-charged in a melt separation furnace; heat required by melt separation is provided by hot air blown in from an air port and through
combustion of hot coal left in the metallized
pellets, and separation between
slag and iron and
recovery of iron are completed. The pulverized coal melt separation and
recovery method for low-grade iron resources has the advantages that the heat
utilization rate is increased, use amount of
coke is reduced during melt separation, and
energy consumption and production cost are reduced. Due to the fact that metallurgical
solid waste and low-grade
iron ore are high in
slag content and low in iron grade, it is not economical if a traditional
blast furnace technique is used for recovering iron; due to the fact that no
coke layer exists in a traditional coal-based melt separation technique, molten iron carburization is not sufficient; in addition, due to the fact that the heat
conductivity coefficient of a
slag layer is low, iron melting is difficult. By the adoption of the technique, the high temperature and the
high heat utilization rate which are required by molten iron melting are guaranteed; the technique is suitable for
processing low-grade resources containing iron, and the current utilization situation of metallurgical
solid waste and low-grade ore is greatly changed.
