Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of iron and steel metallurgy, and in particular to a sintering method for optimizing the distribution of magnesium oxide. Background Art

[0002] An appropriate amount of magnesium oxide (MgO) can optimize the binary and ternary basicity of slag, achieving ideal slag properties such as melting point, viscosity, and fluidity. This improves slag stability and fluidity, ensuring smooth slag discharge from the blast furnace. In traditional sintering processes, magnesium oxide (MgO) is often added directly to the sintering mix as a flux. Excessive MgO content can act as a refractory phase during sintering, increasing the liquidus temperature of the melt, requiring higher heat and reducing sintering speed. Furthermore, the addition of MgO inhibits the formation of calcium ferrite and increases the content of dicalcium silicate and transparent glass. These structures negatively impact the strength of the sintered ore, resulting in a significant decrease in the drum index. How to rationally transfer MgO from the incoming sintering feedstock—reducing the MgO content in the sintered ore to an appropriate level while also adding MgO through other methods to meet the requirements of blast furnace slag desulfurization—has been a challenge for the ironmaking industry. In addition, if vertical furnaces and rotary kilns are used to produce flux-type magnesium-based pellets to supplement the magnesium oxide content, there are technical bottlenecks such as production difficulties, high energy consumption, and insufficient pellet strength.
