Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of molten iron pretreatment, and in particular to an agitator capable of suppressing the escape of a molten iron KR desulfurizing agent and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The molten iron KR mechanical stirring desulfurization process uses a single-layer cross-arranged agitator with rectangular or inverted right-angled trapezoidal blades immersed in the molten iron to rotate and stir. The telescopic feeding chute arranged downward and inclined passes through the opening of the dust removal hood and extends above the stirring vortex liquid surface of the molten iron tank. The desulfurizer is added to the molten iron stirring vortex liquid surface by the gravity of the desulfurizer or the injection of the carrier gas. The desulfurizer is stirred, entrained and mixed on the molten iron liquid surface to achieve desulfurization reaction at the interface between the desulfurizer and the molten iron. Therefore, it has excellent desulfurization reaction kinetics and has become the preferred process for deep desulfurization of molten iron.

[0003] During the KR stirring desulfurization process of molten iron, the high temperature of the molten iron, which can reach nearly 1500℃, leads to strong natural convection of air in the space above the molten iron surface. During the desulfurizer addition process, the strong natural convection rising flow field above the liquid surface carries a large amount of desulfurizer particles to float and escape, especially the fine desulfurizer powder with fine particle size. Although the strong suction negative pressure of the dust removal exhaust port of the splash shield suppresses the environmental pollution caused by the dust emission of the desulfurizer to the operating platform, the dust extraction and escape of the desulfurizer is increased, which not only reduces the effective utilization rate of the desulfurizer and increases the consumption of the desulfurizer, but also increases the dust removal load and operation cost of the dust removal system. Although increasing the desulfurizer particle size and reducing the desulfurizer fine powder content reduces the amount of desulfurizer entrained in the air flow and escapes, and increasing the desulfurizer molten iron stirring entrainment rate, the purpose of reducing desulfurizer consumption and dust environmental pollution has been achieved, but for the interface reaction form of lime particle surface contact in molten iron KR desulfurization, the increase of desulfurizer particles will lead to a sharp decrease in the specific surface area of ​​lime particles, a decrease in the effective utilization rate of desulfurizer, and an increase in desulfurizer consumption. This is also one of the main reasons for the significant differences in the particle size range and desulfurizer consumption of molten iron KR desulfurizers from different companies. In addition, the gravity feeding method of the telescopic feeding chute of the desulfurizer has the problems of easy clogging of the feeding pipe and unstable feeding speed, which not only affects the stability of the operation of the molten iron KR stirring desulfurization process, but also the desulfurizer accumulated in the telescopic feeding chute instantly falls down, which also aggravates the escape of the desulfurizer and the escape of dust removal suction and the accumulation of the liquid surface in the center of the stirring vortex, worsening the dust pollution in the operating environment, increasing the loss of the desulfurizer, and reducing the reaction interface area of ​​the desulfurizer. This is also the main reason why many steel companies use blowing carrier gas to carry out desulfurizer injection and feeding transformation. Through the high-pressure carrier gas acceleration of the desulfurizer, the injection speed and kinetic energy of the desulfurizer are increased, the aggregation of the desulfurizer is suppressed, and the ability to resist the escape of air flow is enhanced, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the particle size of the desulfurizer and increasing the reaction interface area of ​​the desulfurizer. However, active lime is easy to be pulverized by moisture and has low strength. It is easy to be pulverized during the stirring, mixing and conveying process. The dust emission and dust removal suction escape of the desulfurizer fine powder are still very obvious, which also limits the degree of reduction of the desulfurizer particle size. It can be seen that how to reduce the dust emission and dust suction escape during the addition process of KR desulfurizer in molten iron has become one of the important technical ways to reduce the consumption of desulfurizer, improve the technical and economic indicators of desulfurization and achieve stable deep desulfurization of molten iron.

[0032] like Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the inner wall of the hub 2 is coaxially welded and fixed to the agitator metal stirring shaft 5.1 through multiple connecting steel bars 4. The distance L between the upper end face of the hub 2 and the lower end face of the agitator connecting flange is 500 to 1000 mm. In this embodiment, the number of connecting steel bars 4 is 6 to 12.

[0033] The agitator with molten iron KR desulfurization agent emission suppression of the present invention is connected coaxially and rigidly to the stirring shaft of the agitator body by the suppression device, thereby ensuring the structural integrity of the suppression device and the agitator body, and realizing the addition of an emission suppression device to the existing agitator; during the molten iron KR stirring and desulfurization process, the agitator drives the suppression device blades to rotate coaxially and at the same speed to form a molten iron liquid surface stirring vortex and an axial fan airflow in the space above the liquid surface; through the axial fan airflow blowing to the central area of ​​the molten iron vortex liquid surface, the formation of natural convection rising airflow in the central area of ​​the space above the vortex liquid surface is suppressed, and the molten iron vortex liquid surface is promoted to capture and entrain and mix the contact reaction of the desulfurizer in the central axial flow; further, the suppression device blades rotate to entrain the gas and particulate fine powder in the space area above the molten iron vortex liquid surface, thereby suppressing the emission of the desulfurizer and the dust removal suction escape, and the axial fan airflow blowing to the molten iron vortex liquid surface through the central area is realized.
