The invention relates to a method for
smelting crude lead in an
oxygen-enriched side-blowing
smelting furnace, belonging to the technical field of
lead smelting. The method comprises the process steps of: 1) crude lead material preparation: proportioning lead-containing materials,
quartz stones and limestone flux according to
silicate degree being 0.9-1.3 percent, evenly mixing and crushing the lead-containing materials and the flux to grain size being less than or equal to 40mm; 2) crude
lead smelting preparation: melting partial crude lead materials to a depth of 300-400mm in the
oxygen-enriched side-blowing
smelting furnace; and 3) crude
lead smelting: continuously feeding the crude lead materials into a
hearth and then controlling smelting air-
coal ratio, temperature and high-pressure
oxygen-enriched air supply, wherein molten lead sinks down and automatically flows into a furnace
bed for heat preservation and storage through a
siphon port, the molten lead automatically flows into a
casting mold to form ingots when the depth of the stored molten lead reaches an overflow port, and the accumulated floating lean
slag is discharged and is introduced into the crude lead material preparation process. The method for smelting crude lead in the oxygen-enriched side-blowing smelting furnace has the advantages that the investment is small, the smelting efficiency is high, the
energy consumption is low, the arrangement is facilitated, the treatment capacity is high, the method is suitable for
mass production, the materials are not required to be granulated, bricked, dried and stored, and the quantity of
flue dust is small.
