Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of sintering, and particularly relates to a device and method for pressing sintering balls of blast furnace return fines. BACKGROUND

[0002] In domestic blast furnace production, sintered ore is the main raw material, and iron material accounts for 60-90%. About 30% of the sintered ore in the production process is recycled and resintered, and the sintered ore with a particle size greater than 5 mm under the blast furnace tank can be directly used as a finished product for smelting.

[0003] Blast furnace return fines refer to sintered ore powder with a particle size less than 5 mm screened out from the blast furnace tank. A large proportion of small particle size sintered ore in the blast furnace return fines is sent to the sintering plant, and after mixing and sintering, it is returned to the blast furnace tank. However, the return fines repeatedly go back and forth between the iron mill and the sintering plant, and the repeated sintering process greatly increases the production cost and energy consumption. After the sintered ore is sized, the particle size is greater than 5 mm, but crushing occurs during belt operation and unloading. In order to ensure good permeability in the blast furnace, the sintered ore is screened before entering the blast furnace, and the sintered ore with a particle size less than 5 mm is returned to the sintering process for re-production.

[0004] After the small particle size sintered ore is cold consolidated and formed, it is returned to the blast furnace, realizing resource recycling and utilization, reducing environmental pollution, and reducing energy consumption. The cold consolidation forming process is to add a proper binder to various dust generated in the steel production process, mix uniformly, and under a certain pressure, the mixed material is pressed into a block-shaped material with a certain shape, size, density and strength. After drying or natural solidification, it becomes a briquette with high strength. However, drying increases energy consumption, production cost is high and has certain environmental pollution. The natural drying process has no energy consumption, but the drying speed of the briquette is slow, which leads to poor performance of the binder, slow increase in strength, and low water content of the briquette, greatly reducing the metallurgical effect of the product, and requiring a large natural drying site.

[0005] Taking a certain plant as an example, sintered ore accounts for 90% of the iron-containing furnace charge in blast furnace production, and 35% of the blast furnace return fines in the sintering process are recycled and resintered. The annual blast furnace return fines reach 900,000 tons, and the energy consumption of sintered products per ton of return fines is 50 Kggce / t, and the annual energy consumption of sintered products of return fines is 45,000,000 Kggce / t.

[0006] The existing technology has the following defects and deficiencies: the current return fine method leads to insufficient sintering production capacity, high energy consumption, increased cost, and increased environmental pressure, which does not meet the requirements of the national carbon peak and carbon neutralization policy.

[0138] The sieve 29 is used to screen the semi-finished wet pellets generated by the roller pressing device, removing waste materials smaller than a set size, and then conveying the screened semi-finished wet pellets to the drying device. Preferably, the set screening size is 25mm. The third conveyor belt 31 is located below the sieve 29, and the sieve 29 is equipped with a screen plate 32. The semi-finished wet pellets are screened through the screen plate 32 with a 25mm aperture. Semi-finished wet pellets smaller than 25mm will fall onto the third conveyor belt 31 and be sent back to the mixing chamber 14 of the first twin-shaft mixer for mixing. Semi-finished wet pellets larger than 25mm will fall directly to the ground, be collected, and conveyed to the drying chamber 39 for drying.

[0140] The third step of drying: as shown in the figure, the forklift is used to collect the semi-finished wet material balls greater than 25 mm falling to the ground; the plug valve 40 is arranged in the drying chamber 39, and is used to carry the semi-finished wet material balls to collect the semi-finished wet material balls greater than 25 mm falling to the ground through the hot blast furnace feeding port 38 to the plug valve 40 of the drying chamber 39 (also referred to as a shaft kiln); that is, the plug valve 40 carries the semi-finished wet material balls collected after screening by the screening device to be dried. Figure 6

[0141] In use, the gas valve is opened, the gas is pushed by the air blower 34, enters the combustion chamber 35 through the gas pipeline 33 to burn, and the hot air generated under the action of the air blower 36 is blown into the drying chamber 39 through the hot air pipeline 37; the temperature of the hot air entering the drying chamber 39 is controlled at 260-300℃, and the above-mentioned semi-finished wet material blocks are dried in the drying chamber 39 for 120-150 minutes until the moisture of the semi-finished wet material balls is reduced to within 2% (to ensure the strength of the finished balls) to obtain the finished balls; the plug valve 40 is provided below the chain plate machine 41, one end of the plug valve 40 is opened, and the finished balls fall onto the chain plate machine 41; the finished balls are transported to the finished ball warehouse through the chain plate machine 41; that is, the chain plate machine 41 is used to transport the finished balls falling from the plug valve 40 to the finished ball warehouse; the temperature of the finished balls out of the drying chamber 39 exceeds 100℃. The finished balls have uniform particle size, low moisture, less powder and high air permeability.

[0142] According to the actual production needs of the blast furnace, an appropriate amount of finished balls is transported to the blast furnace for direct use.

[0143] In order to realize that the return ore balling performance of the blast furnace meets the use requirements of the blast furnace smelting, the raw material formula and method suitable for the process are developed; the laterite nickel ore is added as a binding medium; the binder is added to improve the binding capacity of the laterite nickel ore and the balling rate of the blast furnace return ore.

[0144] The above-mentioned method of the blast furnace return ore balling of the present application has no high-temperature treatment, mainly the return ore with a particle size less than 5 mm screened from the blast furnace is directly balling and put into the blast furnace for use. According to the same calculation method, the energy consumption of ton return ore balling product is 10Kggce / t, compared with the energy consumption of the return ore sintering product, the energy consumption of the return ore balling product is reduced by 80% per year, which significantly reduces the sintering energy consumption, reduces environmental pollution, avoids excessive return ore of the blast furnace from being recycled and reburned in the sintering system, and at the same time, the return ore balling of the blast furnace can also replace part of the sintering ore, thereby improving the clinker ratio and being beneficial to the stable production of the blast furnace. ​
