[0039] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0040] In the existing technology of the metallurgical field, how to properly dry a newly built rotary hearth furnace to ensure its smooth commissioning is a difficult problem. This is mainly reflected in the fact that whether the temperature and time are properly controlled during the furnace drying process determines the quality and service life of the refractory materials in the subsequent production of the rotary hearth furnace. If the temperature is too low and the time is too short, the moisture in the refractory materials may not be dried enough and will not meet the requirements; if the temperature is too high and the time is too long, the refractory materials may be over-dried and directly rejected.

[0041] Existing rotary hearth furnaces have problems with controlling the drying time and temperature, resulting in either insufficient or excessive drying of refractory materials.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a method for drying a rotary hearth furnace, which can effectively improve the technical problems mentioned above, better control the drying time and temperature, and ensure that the refractory material can be dried well during the drying process, thereby better completing the drying operation of the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a method for drying a rotary hearth furnace, including:

[0044] S1: Ignite hot air furnace 10;

[0045] Specifically, the hot blast stove 10 is connected to the combustion fan of the rotary hearth furnace 20, coke oven gas, and blast furnace gas. After confirming that the ignition conditions are met, the hot blast stove 10 for drying green pellets is ignited and heated. For the first ignition, firewood and kerosene are used to ignite the coke oven gas in the furnace, and then the blast furnace gas is ignited. The ignition operation is carried out in accordance with the operating procedures of the hot blast stove 10. The high-temperature flue gas of the hot blast stove 10 is discharged through the flue gas vent pipe, and the furnace temperature gradually rises.

[0046] S2: Start the combustion air blower of the rotary hearth furnace 20 and use the heat exchanger to convert the high-temperature air generated inside the hot blast furnace 10 into low-temperature combustion air;

[0047] Specifically, after the hot blast stove 10 is burning normally, prepare to start the combustion air blower of the rotary hearth furnace 20. Before starting the combustion air blower of the rotary hearth furnace 20, check the inlet and outlet valves of the blower. After the inlet and outlet valves of the blower are completely closed, press the jog button on the control box next to the machine to prepare to start the combustion air blower of the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0048] After the combustion blower is started, the blower speed is gradually accelerated to the rated speed. During the acceleration process, the current data of the blower is monitored. After the blower speed and current are constant, the blower outlet valve is opened and the inlet valve is gradually opened so that the blower pressure reaches the process requirements. The flue gas after the furnace is dried is discharged by the rotary hearth furnace 20 flip-top machine.

[0049] More often, when the pressure of the blower meets the process requirements, the preheated combustion air of the rotary hearth furnace 20 enters the furnace chamber of the rotary hearth furnace 20 at 150°C for furnace drying.

[0050] It should also be noted that during the stage of preheating the combustion air into the rotary hearth furnace 20, no requirements are placed on the temperature change of the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0051] S3: Use low-temperature combustion air to dry the refractory material of rotary hearth furnace 20, and adjust the drying time according to the temperature rise curve of rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0052] Specifically, the preheating air flow and temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20 are controlled by a heat exchanger, and the hot air after the furnace is dried is discharged by the rotary hearth furnace 20 flipping machine.

[0053] In this embodiment, the refractory material in the rotary hearth furnace 20 is dried for five days using low-temperature combustion air obtained through heat exchange. In other embodiments, the specific drying time is strictly determined according to the furnace temperature rise curve table.

[0054] More often, the temperature range of the low-temperature combustion air entering the rotary hearth furnace 20 is between 145℃ and 155℃.

[0055] S4: Perform low-temperature drying on the rotary hearth furnace 20, and adjust the drying progress according to the temperature rise curve of the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0056] Specifically, during the low-temperature baking stage, the furnace temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20 is between 150℃ and 300℃. The gas volume and combustion air volume of the hot blast stove 10 are manually adjusted according to the temperature of the hot blast stove 10 and the air preheating temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20. The baking temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20 is controlled by adjusting the preheating air flow and temperature through a heat exchanger. The hot air after baking the rotary hearth furnace 20 is discharged by the rotary hearth furnace 20 flipping machine.

[0057] Furthermore, if the dust removal in the exhaust duct of the rotary hearth furnace 20 and the waste heat boiler are ready for trial use, the hot air after drying the rotary hearth furnace 20 can also be discharged by the dust collector.

[0058] S5: Ignite the furnace burner to perform high-temperature baking of the rotary hearth furnace 20;

[0059] Specifically, an open flame is used to ignite the gas in the furnace burner, thereby igniting the gas and gradually igniting the furnace burner to bake the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0060] In this embodiment, the rotary hearth furnace 20 includes a heating zone, a reduction zone 1, a reduction zone 2, a reduction zone 3, a reduction zone 4, and a reduction zone 5 connected in sequence.

[0061] It should be noted that, since the temperature range required for the rotary hearth furnace 20 during the high-temperature baking stage is between 300℃ and 1250℃, in order to ensure that the hot air temperature inside the hot blast stove 10 meets the temperature requirements for the high-temperature baking stage, the burners of the rotary hearth furnace 20 need to be ignited for high-temperature baking. Before ignition, the rotary hearth furnace 20 needs to meet the following conditions:

[0062] (1) The gas pipeline of the rotary hearth furnace 20 has passed the air tightness test. All valves are closed and the gas of the rotary hearth furnace 20 has been sent to the valve in front of the furnace. Nitrogen is ready for purging and replacement. Compressed air, cooling water and other media can be used normally.

[0063] (2) The relevant equipment of the rotary hearth furnace 20 has been tested and run normally. The mechanical, electrical and instrumentation systems have been debugged without any abnormalities and all equipment is in operation.

[0064] (3) The automatic control system of the rotary hearth furnace is normal, and the central control operation interface is clear and in normal operation.

[0065] (4) The water circulation system of the rotary hearth furnace 20 is operating normally, the water seal tank is full of water and meets the requirement of continuous water injection:

[0066] (5) The waste heat boiler has been commissioned and is ready to supply flue gas;

[0067] (6) All instruments, valves, dust collectors and dust collection fans in the flue can be put into normal operation.

[0068] After all the above conditions are met, the gas pipeline is replaced with nitrogen according to the gas operation post specifications. After confirming that the replacement is qualified, the gas is introduced and the furnace burner is gradually ignited for the rotary hearth furnace 20 baking.

[0069] More importantly, since the ignition temperature range of coke oven gas is between 750℃ and 800℃, when the hot air in the hot blast stove 10 is at 300℃, the burners in the furnace body cannot be directly ignited. In this case, an open flame such as an ignition rod is needed to ignite the gas in the burners. The specific operation for igniting the burners is as follows:

[0070] (1) According to the operating procedure for the 20th gas inlet of the rotary hearth furnace, the air in the gas pipeline is replaced with nitrogen before the gas is introduced according to the gas ignition operating procedure.

[0071] (2) Adjust the automatic flow control valve for combustion air to ensure that its opening is about 30%;

[0072] (3) The gas flow regulating valve is opened by the central control through the instrument to a degree of about 30%, and the manual air valve in front of the burner is opened to a degree of about 25%.

[0073] (4) Insert the ignition rod (torch) into the burner through the ignition hole, ensuring that it is not blown out by the combustion air. Open the butterfly valve at the top of the gas pipeline to 35%, and then slowly open the secondary butterfly valve at the bottom of the gas pipeline to about 25%. Observe whether the gas in the burner is ignited. If it is not ignited, retest the ignition gas and then re-ignite it.

[0074] (5) After the burner is lit, the gas butterfly valve and air butterfly valve in front of the burner are opened slowly at the same time. Observe and confirm that the burner flame is bright blue and sprays out. The rest of the burners are lit in the same way to raise the furnace temperature and the furnace is baked according to the furnace baking curve. The high temperature flue gas generated during furnace baking must be discharged from the dust removal fan through the waste heat boiler. The lit burners are arranged in an intermittent cross manner to ensure uniform heating.

[0075] (6) The ignition sequence principle starts from the inner and outer burners of the fifth reduction zone, and then proceeds in a cross manner to the fourth reduction zone, the third reduction zone, the second reduction zone, the first reduction zone and the heating zone. During the furnace baking process, the ignition time and ignition sequence of each burner can be adjusted according to the heating requirements and actual conditions.

[0076] (7) The burner's hot-state adjustment is carried out after holding at 1250℃. When the furnace temperature reaches 1250℃, it is held for 10 hours. The target values ​​for furnace temperature control in each section when the furnace temperature reaches 1250℃ are: Reduction Section 5 25: 1230-1260℃; Reduction Section 4 24: 1230-1260℃; Reduction Section 3 23:

[0077] 1210-1230℃; Reduction Stage 22: 1180-1210℃; Reduction Stage 1: 1150-1180℃;

[0078] Heating section 26: 1100-1150℃.

[0079] Specifically, this rotary hearth furnace baking method strictly follows the baking curve to control the temperature rise. Before the furnace temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20 reaches 300℃, the temperature is regulated by the hot air temperature and flow rate, thereby controlling the temperature difference between each section of the rotary hearth furnace 20 within ±50℃. When the furnace temperature of the rotary hearth furnace 20 is above 300℃, the furnace burners are already ignited. The gas and air flow rates are manually adjusted using the flow regulating valves of each section, and the burner activation sequence is marked.

[0080] It should also be noted that after the temperature inside the rotary hearth furnace 20 reaches 300℃, except for the heating section 26, one burner is ignited in each zone of the outer ring of the reduction section. According to the temperature change inside the rotary hearth furnace 20, the burners are ignited and heated gradually in a staggered and intermittent manner until all burners are ignited. During this process, the manual valve in front of the burners is fully open, and the electric regulating valves for gas and air in each zone are opened by 1% to 2%. After the temperature can no longer rise, the opening of the electric regulating valves for gas and air in each zone is gradually increased (each increase should not exceed 2%, or the temperature increase should not exceed 5℃ per hour) until they are fully open. During this process, the furnace temperature is strictly controlled according to the temperature rise curve.

[0081] Specifically, the reference temperature of the heating curve is the average temperature on both sides of each zone. When the temperature difference between the two sides is large, the air and gas flow rates need to be adjusted in time to reduce the temperature difference.

[0082] The furnace temperature and flue gas temperature are measured every hour. The furnace pressure at the discharge end is controlled at 0 to -5 Pa, and the furnace pressure at the feed end is controlled at approximately -10 to -13 Pa (depending on whether there is positive pressure at the burner). The flow rate, pressure, and temperature of various energy media (including coal gas, compressed air, and combustion air) are recorded every hour. The burner combustion status is checked at least 6 times per shift, and adjustments and confirmations are made immediately if any abnormalities are found.

[0083] In addition, the rotary hearth furnace needs to be cooled down after high-temperature baking at 20°C. The specific cooling operation is as follows:

[0084] Cooling sequence: heating section 26 → reduction section 1 21 → reduction section 2 22 → reduction section 3 23 → reduction section 4 24 and reduction section 5 25. When the furnace temperature drops below 600℃, the final shutdown is carried out. The shutdown process is carried out by adjusting the gas and air regulating valves in each zone to reduce the flow rate, and finally closing all manual valves in front of the furnace.

[0085] When the furnace temperature drops to 150℃, open the rotary hearth furnace 20 flip-top machine, turn off the exhaust fan, open the furnace door for natural cooling, and set the shutdown time for the combustion fan according to the production and maintenance schedule.

[0086] When the furnace temperature drops to 20℃~40℃, the masonry can be inspected inside the furnace. Expansion joints should be filled with LYGX-512 ceramic fiber blankets, with a focus on filling the expansion joints at the furnace bottom. After the expansion joints at the furnace bottom are filled and repaired, fiber blankets and magnesia are laid to complete the furnace drying process.

[0087] In summary, the embodiments of the present invention provide a method for drying a rotary hearth furnace. This method includes igniting a hot blast stove 10; starting the combustion air blower of the rotary hearth furnace 20 and using a heat exchanger to convert the high-temperature air generated inside the hot blast stove 10 into low-temperature combustion air; using the low-temperature combustion air to dry the refractory material of the rotary hearth furnace 20 and adjusting the drying time according to the temperature rise curve of the rotary hearth furnace 20; performing low-temperature drying on the rotary hearth furnace 20 and adjusting the drying progress according to the temperature rise curve of the rotary hearth furnace 20; and igniting the furnace burners to perform high-temperature drying on the rotary hearth furnace 20. In this rotary hearth furnace drying method, the hot blast stove generates high-temperature air at 10 o'clock. The high-temperature air is converted into low-temperature combustion air through a heat exchanger. The low-temperature combustion air is used to dry the refractory material in the rotary hearth furnace 20, avoiding over-drying. During the drying process of the rotary hearth furnace 20, the drying temperature and the flow rate of the low-temperature combustion air are strictly adjusted according to the drying temperature rise curve of the rotary hearth furnace 20 to ensure control over the drying temperature and drying quality, so as to better dry the refractory material. Then, the furnace burner is ignited to carry out high-temperature drying of the rotary hearth furnace 20, thereby better completing the drying operation of the rotary hearth furnace 20.

[0088] This rotary hearth furnace baking method can effectively solve the problems of inappropriate baking time and uneven temperature, and can reduce the circumferential temperature difference of the rotary hearth furnace 20 to within 3℃.

[0089] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
