Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of biomass energy utilization and metallurgical reduction, and particularly relates to a system and method for multi-stage graded biomass gasification coupled with iron ore powder reduction. BACKGROUND
[0002] The steel industry is a key industry in terms of energy consumption and carbon emissions. The traditional blast furnace ironmaking process relies on fossil fuels such as coke, resulting in high CO2 emissions. In order to achieve the "double carbon" goal, it is urgent to develop new low-carbon or even zero-carbon ironmaking processes.
[0003] Among various low-carbon ironmaking paths, the direct reduced iron (DRI) process, especially the gas-based shaft furnace process, is considered an important direction to replace the traditional blast furnace due to its short process, low energy consumption, and pure product. However, the gas-based shaft furnace technology has very high requirements for the quality and supply stability of the reducing gas. At present, China lacks sufficient natural gas resources, which seriously restricts the popularization and application of this technology. Although some research has explored the use of coal gas or coke oven gas as a reducing gas source, the coal gas generated in the coal gasification process contains a lot of impurities and CO2, affecting the reduction efficiency and iron product quality. The coke oven gas reforming technology is only suitable for steel joint enterprises with large-scale coking facilities, and its scope of application is limited. More importantly, the above-mentioned technical routes have not fundamentally broken away from the dependence on fossil fuels.
[0004] Biomass energy, as a renewable and carbon-neutral energy form, is expected to achieve truly low-carbon or even "negative carbon" ironmaking when introduced into the steelmaking process. Existing technologies attempt to use biomass directly for ironmaking, such as preparing reducing gas through gasification or using it as an additive in pellet preparation, but there are still problems such as low gasification efficiency, poor quality of reducing gas, and low system integration. In particular, when coupling biomass gasification with existing shaft furnace reduction processes, how to achieve precise control of gas composition, efficient utilization of waste heat, and effective treatment of ash remains a technical difficulty.
[0005] To solve the above problems, some patent technologies have proposed some improvement schemes. For example, patent application CN114317855A provides a blast furnace ironmaking method, which prepares high-temperature and high-pressure synthesis gas (which can be derived from coal powder or biomass) through a gasification furnace, and sprays it together with pure oxygen from the lower part of the blast furnace to replace the traditional hot air and coal powder. Although this method improves the blast energy, reduces the coal consumption per ton of iron, and improves the coal gas quality to some extent, it still does not deviate from the basic framework of blast furnace smelting, continues to rely on coke, and has high requirements for the purity of gasification gas, which limits the large-scale flexible application of biomass. Another patent application CN120591483A proposes a CO2 recycling idea in a gas-based shaft furnace using biomass gasification gas as a reducing agent, which separates and recycles CO2 generated in the gasification and reduction processes to build an internal carbon cycle. However, this scheme relies on multiple CO2 separation devices, and the system is complex, with high energy consumption and investment cost. The integrated structure of the fluidized bed reduction reactor and the multi-stage cyclone preheater also has strict requirements on the particle size and cycle stability of the iron ore powder, making it difficult to implement in an industrialized manner. In addition, the biomass gasification furnace uses a single gasification section, and the content of effective components (CO, H2) in the synthesis gas is low; the reduction reactor uses a common fluidized bed form, and the iron ore powder is severely entrained, making it difficult to stably guarantee the metallization rate.
[0006] In summary, although the existing technology has made some breakthroughs in some aspects, there are still obvious shortcomings in system integration, energy efficiency optimization, and carbon emission reduction. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of biomass gasification coupled reduction system that has good reducing gas quality, high system integration, full utilization of energy cascade, can realize efficient direct reduction of iron ore powder, and can minimize external carbon emissions.
