Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of converter control technology in iron and steel metallurgy, specifically to a control method for preventing the burn-out of converter dust collector bags under low iron consumption smelting conditions. Background Technology

[0002] Many domestic long-process steel enterprises have chosen to adopt a low-cost solution with low iron consumption and high scrap steel ratio that can quickly achieve results. Under the low iron consumption mode, the converter solves the heat balance problem by adding carbonaceous and silicon heat supplements. However, the addition of carbonaceous heat supplements is often accompanied by short-term large smoke and fire, which can easily cause dust collector bags to burn and result in the immediate emission of particulate matter not meeting the standards, thus affecting the safety and environmental protection of enterprises.

[0003] For example, in a production mode with low iron consumption of 830-850 kg / t (high efficiency and low cost) and a high scrap steel ratio, the furnace mouth section is prone to producing large amounts of smoke and fire during the early stages of converter blowing due to the influence of economical scrap steel and heating agents. This has resulted in five instances of C7 dust collector bags burning, causing more than 60 hours of downtime and the replacement of more than 2,800 bags, resulting in significant economic losses. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a control method to prevent converter dust collector bag burning under low iron consumption smelting conditions, in order to solve the problem of large amounts of smoke and fire easily damaging dust collector bags in the existing converter heat balance control.

[0017] When the silicon content of molten iron is controlled at ≥0.31%, it is automatic control model three, and the fan speed is controlled at 1250rpm-1360rpm during the blowing stage;

[0018] Before loading, the fan speed is controlled at 1210rpm-1250rpm.
