[0033] Various other advantages and benefits will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading the following detailed description of preferred embodiments. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the same reference numerals denote the same parts throughout the drawings. In the drawings:

[0034] Figure 1 A schematic flowchart of a sintering control method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown;

[0035] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a sintering control device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Detailed Implementation

[0036] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0037] This invention provides a sintering control method, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0038] S110 involves spraying hot air onto the first sintering material surface using either a hot air sintering process or a flue gas internal circulation process.

[0039] In this embodiment, the sintering machine material surface is first divided into four areas according to different stages of the sintering process, along the running direction of the sintering machine trolley, that is, along the direction from the head to the tail of the sintering machine trolley. The sintering machine material surface includes: the first sintering material surface, the second sintering material surface, the third sintering blowing surface, and the fourth sintering material surface.

[0040] The first sintering material surface occupies 5-15% of the sintering exhaust area, the second sintering material surface occupies 10-25% of the sintering exhaust area, the third sintering material surface occupies 20-30% of the sintering exhaust area, and the fourth sintering material surface occupies 5-15% of the sintering exhaust area. There is a preset interval between adjacent sintering material surfaces, which accounts for 5-15% of the exhaust area. Adjacent sintering material surfaces can be arranged side by side, but cannot overlap.

[0041] Furthermore, the first, third, and fourth sintering surfaces are covered with flue gas hoods, while the second sintering surface is not covered with a flue gas hood.

[0042] Since each sintering material surface is in a different sintering time period, it will have different sintering characteristics. In this embodiment, different sintering blowing methods are implemented for each sintering material surface to improve the stability of the sintering process.

[0043] For the first sintering surface, hot air sintering process or flue gas internal circulation process can be used to spray the first sintering surface.

[0044] Among them, the hot air sintering process generally refers to the process of introducing the hot air generated after the sintering ring cooler cools the sintered ore to the sintering machine material surface through an induced draft fan. The main purpose is to recover the heat in the gas and improve the quality of the upper layer of sintered ore on the sintering material surface and increase the output by optimizing the injection position.

[0045] Flue gas recirculation technology primarily involves returning a portion of the hot flue gas generated during combustion in the sintering process to the sintering machine's material surface, allowing it to participate in the sintering process again. This reduces flue gas emissions and utilizes the flue gas to improve the quality of the sintered ore. Depending on the location of the sintering flue gas, it can be divided into external flue gas recirculation technology and internal flue gas recirculation technology.

[0046] In this embodiment, the air intake boxes for the internal flue gas recirculation process and the external flue gas recirculation process are different. Two to four air boxes are installed at the tail of the sintering machine trolley, allowing the internal flue gas recirculation process to draw air from the branch pipes of the air boxes at the tail. The location of the air box corresponding to the external flue gas recirculation process must not overlap with the air intake location of the air box for the internal flue gas recirculation process.

[0047] When blowing each sintering material surface, the blowing is performed sequentially based on the order of the first sintering material surface, the second sintering material surface, the third sintering material surface, and the fourth sintering material surface.

[0048] In one embodiment, the blowing is performed sequentially based on the first sintering material surface, the second sintering material surface, the third sintering material surface, and the fourth sintering material surface, including:

[0049] Start the blowing process on the first sintering surface and maintain the blowing state for 2-4 hours;

[0050] Keep the first sintering material surface in the blowing state, start the blowing of the second sintering material surface, and keep the blowing state for 2~4 hours;

[0051] Keep the first and second sintering surfaces in the blowing state, start the blowing of the third sintering surface, and keep the blowing state for 2-4 hours;

[0052] Keep the first, second, and third sintering surfaces in the blowing state, and start blowing the fourth sintering surface.

[0053] The final stable operating state is achieved by simultaneous blowing of the four sintering surfaces to carry out stable sintering production and ensure the quality of sintered ore.

[0054] S111 utilizes hydrogen-rich gas to spray onto the second sintering surface.

[0055] After the first sintering surface is purged, hydrogen-rich gas is used to purge the second sintering surface. This hydrogen-rich gas includes gases rich in hydrogen such as coke oven gas, natural gas, or liquefied petroleum gas.

[0056] The hydrogen-rich fuel injection process involves injecting hydrogen-rich gaseous fuels, such as natural gas or coke oven gas, into the sintering bed through the material surface to replace part of the solid fuel in the mixture, improve the shape and position of the high-temperature zone in sintering, thereby achieving the goals of fuel substitution, improving the quality of sintered ore, and realizing the green and low-carbon development of sintering.

[0057] In one embodiment, hydrogen-rich gas is used to spray the second sintering surface, including:

[0058] The flow rate of the hydrogen-rich gas is determined based on the primary calorific value of the hydrogen-rich gas, the secondary calorific value of the solid fuel, and the sintering exhaust area; wherein the flow rate of the hydrogen-rich gas ranges from 50 to 500 Nm³. 3 / h.

[0059] The second sintering surface is sprayed with hydrogen-rich gas based on the flow rate.

[0060] Specifically, hydrogen-rich gas is used to replace part of the solid fuel to provide heat for the sintering process. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the flow rate of the hydrogen-rich gas and the proportion of solid fuel in the sintering mixture.

[0061] S112, the third sintering material surface is sprayed using a hot air sintering process or a flue gas internal circulation process, and the second sintering material surface and the third sintering material surface are sprayed simultaneously using a material surface steam spraying process.

[0062] For the third sintering surface, hot air sintering process or flue gas internal circulation process can be used to blow the third sintering surface, and steam blowing process can be used to blow the second and third sintering surfaces simultaneously.

[0063] The steam injection process involves injecting steam from the sintering surface into the sintering layer to promote the combustion of fuel during sintering, improve heat transfer in the sintering layer, and thus improve the quality indicators of sintered minerals.

[0064] In this embodiment, when the second sintering surface and the third sintering surface are purged simultaneously using the steam injection process, the total amount of steam injection is 0.3 to 0.7% of the sinter production.

[0065] S114 utilizes external flue gas circulation technology to spray the fourth sintering material surface.

[0066] For the fourth sintering surface, the flue gas external circulation process is used to spray the fourth sintering surface.

[0067] It is worth noting that when blowing air onto the first, third, and fourth sintering surfaces, the flue gas volume flow rate or hot air volume flow rate corresponding to each sintering surface can be determined based on the exhaust area of ​​the sintering machine and the air volume received by the sintering surface. The flue gas volume flow rate or hot air volume flow rate of the first sintering surface accounts for 6-12% of the air volume received by the sintering surface, the flue gas volume flow rate or hot air volume flow rate of the third sintering surface accounts for 20-25% of the air volume received by the sintering surface, and the flue gas volume flow rate of the fourth sintering surface accounts for 10-20% of the air volume received by the sintering surface.

[0068] The blowing process used in each sintering material surface in this embodiment is designed based on the characteristics of the sintering process and cannot be changed in position to avoid negative effects.

[0069] The sintering control method provided in this embodiment can perform injection strengthening according to different stages of the sintering process, so that different injection processes can produce synergistic strengthening effects, further reduce the flue gas emissions of the sintering machine, and thus achieve the technical effects of improving the heat utilization efficiency of the sintering process, reducing the amount of carbon fuel used, and improving the quality of sintered ore.

[0070] Based on the same inventive concept as the foregoing embodiments, this embodiment also provides a sintering control device, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the device includes:

[0071] The first blowing control unit 21 is used to blow the first sintering material surface using hot air sintering process or flue gas internal circulation process.

[0072] The second blowing control unit 22 is used to blow hydrogen-rich gas onto the second sintering material surface;

[0073] The third blowing control unit 23 is used to blow the third sintering material surface using hot air sintering process or flue gas internal circulation process, and simultaneously blow the second sintering material surface and the third sintering material surface using material surface steam blowing process.

[0074] The fourth injection control unit 24 is used to inject air onto the fourth sintering surface using a flue gas external circulation process; wherein,

[0075] Along the direction from the head to the tail of the sintering machine trolley, the sintering machine material surface includes: the first sintering material surface, the second sintering material surface, the third sintering blowing surface, and the fourth sintering material surface.

[0076] The first sintering material surface occupies 5-15% of the sintering exhaust area, the second sintering material surface occupies 10-25% of the sintering exhaust area, the third sintering material surface occupies 20-30% of the sintering exhaust area, and the fourth sintering material surface occupies 5-15% of the sintering exhaust area; a preset interval distance is provided between adjacent sintering material surfaces, and the interval distance occupies 5-15% of the exhaust area.

[0077] It should be noted that this device can be a standalone server, and there are no restrictions on this.

[0078] Since the apparatus described in the embodiments of this invention is an apparatus used to implement the methods of the embodiments of this invention, those skilled in the art can understand the specific structure and variations of the apparatus based on the methods described in the embodiments of this invention, and therefore will not be described in detail here. All apparatuses used in the methods of the embodiments of this invention fall within the scope of protection of this invention.

The sintering material surface includes a first sintering material surface, a second sintering material surface, a third sintering material blowing surface, and a fourth sintering material surface along the direction from the head to the tail of the sintering machine trolley. Thus, blowing can be performed separately according to different stages of the sintering process, resulting in a synergistic strengthening effect of different blowing processes, further reducing sintering machine flue gas emissions, and thereby achieving the technical effects of improving the heat utilization efficiency of the sintering process, reducing carbon fuel consumption, and improving the quality of sintered ore.
