Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of ultra-low emission of flue gas in the steel industry, and particularly relates to a sintering flue gas internal and external circulation system and a circulation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The pollutant emission amount of the sintering process in the steel industry is large, and the sintering flue gas circulation technology is an important way to reduce pollutant emission. Many circulation processes have been proposed at home and abroad, among which there are LEEP, Eposint, EOS and Nippon Steel processes abroad, and Ninggang, Shasteel, Shougang, Baosteel, Yonggang, Qiangang and Changgang enterprises at home have all implemented them respectively.

[0003] At present, the sintering machine flue gas circulation technology is roughly divided into two technical ways: flue gas internal circulation technology and flue gas external circulation technology.

[0004] The flue gas internal circulation technology has the following characteristics: 1. The flue gas pollutant and temperature distribution characteristics of each wind box of the sintering machine are considered, so that the pollutants undergo a series of complex chemical reaction processes in the sintering material layer, including the secondary combustion of CO and the high-temperature decomposition of dioxin, which theoretically reduces the emission concentration of SO2, NOx and other pollutants. However, according to the operation situation, the internal circulation does not achieve the expected effect due to the complex process accompanied by numerous physical and chemical reactions in the sintering process, and also brings some other problems. 2. The air is taken from the wind box branch pipe, which is flexible and can switch different wind boxes into the flue gas circulation system at will. However, it also causes large engineering quantities of equipment, steel structure, civil engineering, valves and instruments, resulting in high investment and large maintenance workload. 3. Compared with the external circulation technology, the internal circulation technology has high temperature and high oxygen content of the circulating flue gas, high flue gas circulation rate (about 30%), and good flue gas waste heat utilization effect.

[0005] The flue gas external circulation technology has the following characteristics: 1. The flue gas is taken from the flue gas after the main sintering exhaust fan, which has small engineering changes and low fixed investment. It is better than the flue gas internal circulation system in the industry promotion degree. 2. The process flow is simple, the number of valves and instruments is small, and the maintenance workload is small. 3. Due to the low temperature (generally between 130-150℃) of the flue gas after the main sintering exhaust fan, the heat utilization effect is general. The oxygen content of the flue gas is relatively low, so the sintering flue gas emission reduction rate is low (about 30%).

[0006] In summary, the flue gas internal circulation technology and the flue gas external circulation technology have their own advantages and disadvantages, and there is no process technology that can both improve the flue gas circulation rate and improve the flue gas waste heat utilization rate.

[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an improved technical solution for the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0052] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0053] In the description of the present application, the orientations or positional relationships indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom" and the like are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and do not require the present application to be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. The terms "connected", "connected" used in the present application should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixed connection, or detachable connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through intermediate components, and the specific meaning of the above terms can be understood by those skilled in the art according to the specific circumstances.

[0054] During the sintering process of the sintering material in the sintering machine, the sintering machine flue gas heat is not evenly distributed, among which the sintering machine head air bellow (i.e. machine head) flue gas temperature is relatively low, generally below 150℃, the temperature of the middle and rear sections of the sintering machine air bellow gradually increases, but the total heat of the flue gas of each air bellow of the sintering machine is conserved. At the same time, the concentrations of the sintering machine flue gas pollutants SO2, NOx, CO and other pollutants show different emission characteristics in different air bellows. According to the different pollutants and temperatures in the air bellow, different flue gases can be divided, which can improve the sintering flue gas recycling rate.

[0055] This invention divides the sintering machine's air boxes into three paths. The flue gas from multiple air boxes at the machine head (e.g., air boxes 1-3) is correspondingly transported to the machine head flue of the main flue of the sintering machine. The machine head flue typically has the following characteristics: low temperature, with the flue gas temperature not exceeding 150℃. The flue gas from multiple air boxes in the middle and front sections (e.g., air boxes 4-13) is correspondingly transported to the middle and front sections of the main flue of the sintering machine. The flue gas in the middle and front sections typically has the following characteristics: high CO and NOx concentrations, i.e. The CO and NOx concentrations in the flue gas in the front and middle sections of the sintering machine are higher than those in the head flue and the rear flue. Flue gas from multiple air boxes (e.g., air boxes 14-22) in the rear section is transported to the rear section of the sintering machine's main flue. The flue gas in the rear section typically has the following characteristics: it is high-temperature flue gas, with a temperature not lower than 270℃; the low-temperature flue gas in the front section and the high-temperature flue gas in the rear section undergo gas-to-gas heat exchange, which improves preheating utilization. The head flue, front and middle sections of the sintering machine, and the rear flue form the main flue of the sintering machine.

[0056] In this invention, "front" and "back" refer to the positional relationship based on the direction of flue gas transmission.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a sintering flue gas internal and external circulation system is provided, the internal and external circulation system comprising: an internal circulation device, an external circulation device, and a desulfurization and denitrification device;

[0058] The internal circulation device is connected to the middle and front section of the flue 102 of the main flue of the sintering machine 1. The internal circulation device is used to remove CO from the flue gas in the middle and front section of the main flue of the sintering machine 1 to obtain the first purified flue gas, and then the first purified flue gas is circulated back into the sintering machine 1.

[0059] The external circulation device is connected to the head flue 101 and the middle and rear flue 103 of the main flue of the sintering machine 1. The external circulation device and the internal circulation device exchange heat crosswise. The external circulation device is used to purify the head flue gas and the middle and rear flue gas of the main flue of the sintering machine 1 to obtain the second purified flue gas. Part of the second purified flue gas is circulated back into the sintering machine 1, and the other part enters the desulfurization and denitrification device. After desulfurization and denitrification treatment, it is discharged into the atmosphere. The reason why part of the second purified flue gas is recycled and part is discharged into the atmosphere is because the flue gas recycling rate cannot reach 100%, and it needs to be continuously discharged to avoid the sintering machine 1 from entering too much flue gas that cannot be effectively utilized. Both the internal circulation device and the external circulation device include a circulating flue 31, through which the internal and external circulation of flue gas is completed. The circulating flue 31 is a flue shared by the internal circulation device and the external circulation device, and is also called a common circulating flue.

[0060] The desulfurization and denitrification unit is used to treat the second-stage purified flue gas for desulfurization and denitrification.

[0061] The first purified flue gas and the second purified flue gas are mixed by the flue gas mixer 9 and then recycled into the sintering machine 1. The flue gas mixed by the flue gas mixer 9 is more uniform in composition, facilitating recycling and improving the flue gas recycling rate. The flue gas mixer 9 delivers the mixed flue gas to the sintering machine 1 through the circulating flue 31.

[0062] In a specific embodiment of the present application, one end of the inner circulating flue 26 is connected to the middle-front section flue 102 of the sintering machine 1, and the other end is connected to the flue gas mixer 9. The flue gas from the middle-front section flue 102 of the sintering machine 1 forms an inner circulation of flue gas through the inner circulating flue 26 and the circulating flue 31.

[0063] The inner circulating device includes a gas heat exchanger 12 and an inner combustion furnace 14 arranged on the inner circulating flue 26. The middle-front section flue 102 and the middle-back section flue 103 are heat exchanged by the gas heat exchanger 12. The gas heat exchanger 12 is a gas-gas heat exchanger. After heat exchange, the temperature of the flue gas in the middle-front section flue 102 increases from 100℃ to 180℃, and the temperature of the flue gas in the middle-back section flue 103 decreases from 280℃ to about 200℃, achieving effective utilization of high-temperature flue gas heat. The middle-front section flue gas after heat exchange enters the inner combustion furnace 14 for combustion, removing CO in the flue gas for the first time. A first valve 10 is arranged on the inner circulating flue 26 in front of the gas heat exchanger 12, for controlling the opening and closing of the flue gas in the middle-front section flue 102.

[0064] Preferably, a combustion-supporting flue 30 is arranged on the inner circulating flue 26 behind the inner combustion furnace 14. The combustion-supporting flue 30 is connected from the inner circulating flue 26 to the inlet of the inner combustion furnace 14. The middle-front section flue gas has a high CO content, which can be removed by combustion, and the heat released after combustion can increase the temperature of the flue gas. The flue gas after combustion still contains a high oxygen content, and the combustion-supporting flue 30 is arranged here to support the combustion of the inner combustion furnace 14. More preferably, a first fan 15 is arranged on the combustion-supporting flue 30, and a second fan 16 is arranged between the inner combustion furnace 14 and the flue gas mixer 9. Both the first fan 15 and the second fan 16 are used for air induction. Further preferably, CO concentration analyzers 13 are arranged on the inner circulating flue 26 in front of and behind the inner combustion furnace 14, for detecting and analyzing the CO concentration in the flue gas before and after the combustion furnace.

[0065] Compared with a common heating furnace, the common heating furnace is arranged around the flue with a heating furnace chamber. Coke oven gas or blast furnace gas is combusted in the heating furnace chamber to produce high-temperature gas, which then enters the flue to mix with the upstream flue gas, achieving the purpose of flue gas temperature rise. When the inner combustion furnace 14 is used, the igniter and the combustion-supporting flue 30 are inserted into the inner circulating flue 26, igniting and combusting in the inner circulating flue 26 to heat the flue gas. The igniter can use plasma ignition or other ignition methods. The inner combustion furnace 14 has the following advantages:

[0066] 1. The coke oven gas or blast furnace gas is combusted in the flue, which can greatly reduce the heat loss of combustion compared with the combustion in the hearth outside the flue;

[0067] 2. The average concentration of CO in the flue gas of the middle and front section flue 102 is 10000mg / m 3 , while the average concentration of CO in the blast box of the sintering machine 1 is only 5300mg / m 3 , and the combustion center temperature of the built-in combustion furnace 14 is about 1200℃, which can easily ignite the CO in the middle and front section flue gas and make the CO burn and release heat. On the one hand, the high concentration of CO in the flue gas is ignited to release a large amount of heat, which is beneficial to improve the circulating flue gas temperature and improve the utilization rate of flue gas waste heat; at the same time, the CO emission concentration is also reduced, and waste is turned into treasure. The CO concentration in the exhaust flue gas can be reduced by about 20% through the circulating system of the present application.

[0068] 3. The combustion reaction of dioxin in the combustion center of the built-in combustion furnace 14 can also remove a part of the pollution gas dioxin.

[0069] The high-temperature flue gas after the built-in combustion furnace 14 is divided into two paths. One is introduced back to the built-in combustion furnace 14 by the combustion flue 30 for combustion support. The amount of flue gas introduced back to the built-in combustion furnace 14 is generally a fixed value, and the amount of flue gas can ignite the coke oven gas or blast furnace gas in the built-in combustion furnace 14. Then the ignited blast furnace gas or coke oven gas ignites the CO in the flue gas, and the amount of combustion support flue gas is affected by the amount and temperature of the upstream flue gas. The other path is through the second fan 16 and the subsequent internal circulating flue 26 into the flue gas mixer 9 to circulate to the material surface layer of the sintering machine 1 to participate in the sintering process again.

[0070] In the specific embodiment of the present application, the flue gas from the machine head flue 101 of the sintering machine 1 and the middle and rear section flue 103 of the sintering machine 1 is mixed and purified in the external exhaust flue 27 to obtain the second purified flue gas. The second purified flue gas passes through the external circulating flue 28 and enters the flue gas mixer 9. The flue gas successively passes through the external exhaust flue 27, the external circulating flue 28 and the circulating flue 31 into the sintering machine 1 to complete the external circulation of the flue gas.

[0071] The outer circulation device comprises a machine head electric dust collector 18 arranged on the outer flue 27 after the flue gas mixing, and a third fan 19 arranged on the outer flue 27 behind the machine head electric dust collector 18; a part of the second purified flue gas obtained after passing through the third fan 19 enters the flue gas mixer 9 through the outer circulation flue 28, and the outer circulation flue 28 is provided with a third valve 20 for controlling the flow of flue gas; the other part enters the desulfurization and denitrification device. When the sintering flue gas inner and outer circulation system is in normal operation, the flue gas in the machine head flue 101 and the flue gas in the heat-exchanged middle and rear flue 103 are mixed and then enter the machine head electric dust collector 18 for purification and dust removal, and then enter the outer circulation flue 28 and the desulfurization and denitrification device, respectively.

[0072] Preferably, a maintenance flue is further arranged between the middle and front flue 102 and the outer circulation device, which is used for the circulation and recycling of the middle and front flue gas during the maintenance of the inner circulation device, and the maintenance flue is provided with a second valve 11. When the equipment workpiece in the inner circulation device needs to be maintained, the first valve 10 of the middle and front flue gas is closed in advance, and the second valve 11 is opened; the flue gas in the middle and front flue 102, the flue gas in the machine head flue 101 and the flue gas in the middle and rear flue 103 are mixed in the outer flue 27 and then enter the machine head electric dust collector 18 for dust removal and purification to obtain the second purified flue gas, and then a part of the second purified flue gas enters the flue gas mixer 9 through the rear outer circulation flue 28, and the other part enters the desulfurization and denitrification device. The purpose of arranging the maintenance flue is to ensure that the sintering machine 1 can still operate normally during the maintenance of the sintering flue gas circulation system.

[0073] In the specific embodiment of the present application, the desulfurization and denitrification device comprises a desulfurization reactor 21, a denitrification reactor 22 and a chimney 25 arranged in sequence and communicated along the flue gas transmission direction, and the second purified flue gas is discharged through the chimney 25 after being treated by the desulfurization reactor 21 and the denitrification reactor 22; preferably, a CEMS analyzer 24 and a fourth fan 23 are further arranged in front of the chimney 25, which are respectively used for testing the pollutant components in the flue gas before emission and for inducing air. The CO concentration analyzer 13 arranged in the inner circulation device and the CEMS analyzer 24 in the desulfurization and denitrification device are both used for testing the content of pollutant components in the flue gas, and according to the test results, the operating parameters of the system can be adjusted to prevent the concentration of flue gas pollutants at the chimney 25 outlet from exceeding the standard.

[0074] In the specific embodiment of the application, the internal and external circulation system further comprises a ring cooling device, the ring cooling device comprises a ring cooling machine 17, the ring cooling machine 17 is used for cooling the mineral material generated by the sintering machine 1, and ring cooling flue gas is flue gas generated in the process of cooling the mineral material; the ring cooling machine 17 is connected to the inlet of the flue gas mixer 9 through a ring cooling flue 29. The flue gas in the ring cooling machine 17 has the characteristics of low dust concentration and high oxygen content (about 21%), and the first section and the second section of the ring cooling flue gas in the ring cooling machine 17 are generally used for waste heat power generation (high heat), and the third section of the ring cooling flue gas is used in the application. The temperature of the ring cooling flue gas is about 200 DEG C, the temperature is appropriate, and the high oxygen content can be used for oxygen supplement of the circulating flue gas in the internal and external circulation system.

[0075] In the specific embodiment of the application, the internal and external circulation system further comprises an ammonia injection system 8 and an oxygen supplement device arranged in the circulating flue 31 in sequence along the circulating direction of the flue gas. Preferably, the oxygen supplement device comprises an oxygen distributor 6 connected to the outlet of the oxygen buffer tank 7, and the oxygen sprayed from the oxygen distributor 6 enters the circulating flue 31; preferably, the oxygen is pure oxygen, and the oxygen purity reaches more than 98%. Through the oxygen supplement device, the oxygen content of the flue gas entering the material surface layer of the sintering machine 1 is greater than 18% (when the oxygen content is greater than 18%, the sintering production is not affected). Through the use of pure oxygen supplement process, the flue gas circulation rate can reach more than 60%, which is much higher than the flue gas circulation rate of 20% in the traditional flue gas circulation process.

In addition, a part of the combustion reaction of CO also occurs in the sintering material layer, which is called the second CO removal process. In addition, by using the combustion reaction of dioxin in the high-temperature sintering material layer, the dioxin combustion decomposition also removes a part of the dioxin.

In order to ensure real-time monitoring of the flue gas pressure, four pressure detection devices 3 are arranged on the sealed cover 2.
