Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of blast furnace ironmaking, specifically relating to a method for predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron produced in a blast furnace. Background Technology
[0002] Under the condition of fixed raw material quality, furnace temperature is a key indicator for measuring the blast furnace smelting status. In the Panzhihua-Xichang blast furnace smelting high-titanium vanadium-titanium magnetite, the slag-to-iron ratio is high, and the TiO2 content in the slag exceeds 20%. The TiO2 content in the slag is easily excessively reduced to form TiC, TiN, Ti(C,N), and TiCNO, which cannot be melted under blast furnace smelting conditions, leading to deterioration of slag performance and the formation of foamy slag. Research and production practice show that, under the condition of fixed TiO2 content, the reaction temperature plays a decisive role in the degree of TiO2 reduction in the slag. The higher the temperature, the easier it is for TiO2 in the slag to be reduced, and the greater the risk of blast furnace smelting. Unlike blast furnaces smelting ordinary ores, which use the Si content in the molten iron to characterize the furnace temperature, blast furnaces smelting vanadium-titanium ores use the Ti content in the molten iron as the indicator of furnace temperature.
[0003] In production practice, fluctuations in raw material quality, equipment malfunctions, and operational errors can cause the content of temperature-sensitive elements (such as Ti and Si) in molten iron to exceed the specified range, easily leading to abnormal furnace conditions and potentially causing significant economic losses. Therefore, predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements (such as Ti and Si) in molten iron can guide blast furnace smelting. However, currently available technologies rarely offer methods for predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron, or the existing methods differ significantly from production practices, resulting in poor guidance for predicting the content of sensitive elements in molten iron.
[0004] Therefore, existing technologies need to be improved. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the problems of the prior art, this invention provides a method for predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron smelting in blast furnaces. This method can predict the smelting state and temperature development trend of blast furnaces, and is of guiding significance for preventing drastic fluctuations in blast furnace temperature and the resulting deterioration of furnace conditions.

Detailed Implementation
[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0039] Specific embodiments of the invention are disclosed herein as needed; however, it should be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein are merely examples of the invention that may be implemented in various alternative forms. In the following description, various operating parameters and components are described in several contemplated embodiments. These specific parameters and components are provided as examples only and are not intended to be limiting.
[0040] According to the present invention, a method for predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron produced by blast furnace smelting is provided, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Establishing a furnace heat index model based on the heat input before the tuyeres per unit mass of pig iron and the mass of coke burned before the tuyeres per unit time; Step 2: Calculating the furnace heat index for multiple tapping intervals according to the furnace heat index model established in Step 1; Step 3: Fitting a relationship curve between the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron and the furnace heat index based on the furnace heat index for multiple tapping intervals calculated in Step 2 and the content of temperature-sensitive elements in the molten iron for the next tapping corresponding to each of the multiple tapping intervals; Step 4: Predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in the subsequent molten iron in the blast furnace based on the calculated furnace heat index according to the relationship curve between the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron and the furnace heat index obtained in Step 3.
[0041] The term "temperature-sensitive element" refers to an element that is sensitive to furnace temperature and whose content can characterize the furnace temperature level. Examples include Si in molten iron during blast furnace smelting of ordinary ore and Ti in molten iron during blast furnace smelting of vanadium-titanium ore, as mentioned earlier. The method for predicting the content of temperature-sensitive elements in molten iron provided by this invention is applicable to predicting the Ti content in molten iron during blast furnace smelting of vanadium-titanium ore and / or the Si content in molten iron during blast furnace smelting of ordinary ore. Of course, this invention is not limited to these and can be applied to predicting the content of other temperature-sensitive elements.
[0042] In step 1 of this invention, a furnace heat index model is established based on the heat input per unit mass of pig iron before the tuyere and the mass of coke burned before the tuyere per unit time. This model aims to consider both the impact of heat input (heat input per unit mass of pig iron) on the sensitive elements in molten iron and the impact of the actual smelting process (mass of coke burned before the tuyere per unit time) on the sensitive elements. Compared to other forms of furnace heat index models, this model is more comprehensive and better reflects the actual production conditions of blast furnace smelting. For example, the furnace heat index Wu provided in the literature "Analysis of Ironmaking Calculations" by Na Shuren only considers the heat input per unit mass of molten iron, without considering the impact of the actual smelting process on the content of sensitive elements in molten iron. Document 202011004441.1 mainly predicts the Ti content in molten iron based on the blast furnace titanium load and the Si content in molten iron, which is itself a sensitive element, without calculating the heat input or considering the impact of the actual smelting process on the sensitive elements in molten iron. This invention, based on blast furnace smelting theory, first calculates the amount of pig iron per unit mass and then fully considers the impact of the actual smelting process on the content of sensitive elements in molten iron. Compared with the two documents mentioned above, it is more theoretically scientific and more closely integrated with practice. In step 1, the mass of coke burned in front of the tuyeres per unit time is the parameter for calculating the mass of pig iron per unit time, and it is also a parameter characterizing the degree of influence of the actual smelting process on the sensitive elements in molten iron. First, through this parameter, the mass of coke that has not yet participated in smelting entering the blast furnace per unit time can be obtained. Since the ratio of the mass of coke that has not yet participated in smelting entering the blast furnace per unit time to the mass of iron ore consumed is already determined, the mass of iron ore consumed per unit time can be further obtained, and thus the pig iron output per unit time can be obtained. Based on this output, the heat income in front of the tuyeres obtained per unit mass of pig iron can be obtained. Second, the more coke burned in front of the tuyeres per unit time, the faster the blast furnace smelting process and the lower the content of sensitive elements in the molten iron; conversely, the content of sensitive elements in the molten iron increases.
[0043] In some embodiments, step 1, establishing a furnace heat index model based on the heat income before the tuyere obtained per unit mass of pig iron and the mass of coke burned before the tuyere per unit time, includes: obtaining the mass of coke fed into the furnace per unit time corresponding to the mass of coke burned before the tuyere per unit time based on the mass of coke burned before the tuyere per unit time; and establishing a furnace heat index model based on the heat income before the tuyere obtained per unit mass of pig iron and the mass of coke fed into the furnace per unit time.
[0044] In some embodiments, the furnace heat index model established in step 1 can take the form of the following equation (1):

[0047] In some embodiments, the heat gain ΔH obtained per unit mass of pig iron before the tuyeres t It can be obtained from the heat input at the tuyeres per unit time and the output of molten iron per unit time. For example, the heat input at the tuyeres per unit mass of pig iron ΔH t Calculate according to the following formula (2):

[0145] In some embodiments, in step 3, linear fitting is used for fitting.
