Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coking coal blending technology, and particularly relates to a coal blending system and coking method for improving the reactivity of coke. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the development and application of large-scale blast furnaces, high-quality coke has become the foundation for the efficient and low-carbon operation of large blast furnaces. Large blast furnaces place higher demands on the reactivity of coke. Coke reactivity reflects the ability of coke to chemically react with CO2, O2, and water vapor under high-temperature conditions, and has a significant impact on the stable and smooth operation of the blast furnace. Low coke reactivity makes it prone to carbon melting reaction and cracking in the blast furnace, reduces the coke's crushing and abrasion resistance, and allows coke powder to enter the slag, reducing the slag's fluidity and decreasing the permeability of the burden column in the furnace, resulting in fluctuations in furnace conditions.
[0003] Coke reactivity is calibrated by the CRI value; the lower the CRI value, the better (higher) the coke reactivity, which is more conducive to the stable and smooth operation of the blast furnace. To improve coke reactivity and reduce the CRI value, existing coking coal blending technologies are mainly improved in the following two aspects:
[0004] One method involves adding non-coal materials that enhance caking properties. Chinese invention patent application number 201110177991.7 discloses a method for coking coal blending. In this method, 0.5%–5% hard pitch is added by weight percentage based on the weight percentage of the blended coal or a single type of coal. The mixture is then thoroughly mixed, pulverized, and coked. The hard pitch has a softening point of 105–115℃, a toluene-insoluble content of 15%–25%, a quinoline-insoluble content of 3%–6%, a β-resin content of 12%–20%, a coking value of 45%–65%, an ash content ≤0.3%, and a moisture content ≤1.0%. However, according to the embodiments of this patent, the blending scheme uses a certain proportion of high-volatile gas coal or 100 parts of 1 / 3 coking coal. This results in a very high volatile content in the blended coal, significant shrinkage of the semi-coke, numerous pores inside the coke, and reduced coke reactivity, failing to meet the requirements for 4000m³ coking. 3 Requirements for the use of large blast furnaces of grade A and above.
[0005] Second, a special element passivating agent is added. Chinese invention patent application No. 201810947340.3 discloses a coke with excellent thermal properties and its preparation method. The composition of the blended coal by weight is as follows: 45-55 parts of 1 / 3 coking coal, 10-20 parts of lean coal, 15-25 parts of prime coking coal, 3-8 parts of mixed coal, and 10-15 parts of fat coal. By weight, the blended coal also includes 0.03-0.05 parts of aluminum fluoride, 0.01-0.02 parts of yttrium chloride, 0.1-0.2 parts of boric acid, 0.1-0.2 parts of borax, 0.1-0.2 parts of boron oxide, 0.4-0.5 parts of titanium boride, and 1-3 parts of titanium dioxide. However, according to claim 1 of the patent, step 2 of the method for preparing coke with excellent thermal properties employs a special restrictive process of "tamping"; according to claim 1 of the patent, step 3 of the method for preparing coke with excellent thermal properties contains 5-10% sodium chloride and 50-60% surfactant in its quenching water, and the surfactant component includes 60% sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, indicating that its quenching water contains a large amount of free sodium. + Na during coke quenching + It will enter the pore structure of coke and adhere to the surface of the pore structure of coke. As is well known, Na... + As an alkali metal element, it has a positive catalytic effect on the reactivity of coke, thus reducing its reactivity. Furthermore, the coal blending scheme in this patent application has a proportion of over 45% coking coal (1 / 3), along with a certain percentage of lean coal. The large proportion of high-volatile coking coal increases the volatile matter content of the blended coal and the porosity of the coke, failing to significantly improve its reactivity. Lean coal has poor caking properties and contains more inert substances, increasing the internal crack structure of the coke, reducing its size, and increasing the specific surface area of the coke of the same mass. This intensifies the carbon-fusion reaction with CO2, leading to decreased reactivity. Moreover, this patent requires numerous steps, making the process complex and requiring a variety of chemical reagents, resulting in high production costs.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to develop an easy-to-implement coal blending system and coking method that can improve the reactivity of coke, for 4000m³ 3 Creating favorable conditions for reducing the coke ratio in blast furnaces of 800 blast furnaces and above, and reducing the coal blending costs of coking enterprises, are important technical problems that urgently need to be solved by those skilled in the art.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0024] In general, the coal blending system for improving coke reactivity and the coking method using this coal blending system of the present invention improve coke reactivity and reduce the CRI value by incorporating a certain proportion of Y coal, low-branched fat coal, and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal into the coal blending system. Specifically, the coal blending system for improving coke reactivity of the present invention includes: Y coal, low-branched fat coal, and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal, wherein the Y coal is selected based on its inertia drum index. Its aromaticity fa is 0.70≤fa≤0.77; the low-branched coking coal selected is characterized by a branching degree of 1.31≤CH2 / CH3≤1.86 and an aliphatic hydrogen / total hydrogen ratio of 0.59≤H. al / H all ≤0.76; high hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio lean coal is selected based on its hydrogen content H. daf ≥4.24%, its oxygen content O daf ≤3.78%, with a hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio (H / O) ≥1.53.
[0025] As a specific implementation method, in the above-mentioned coal blending system for improving coke reactivity, the weight ratio of Y coal, low-branched fat coal, and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal is 24-36:16-25:14-19.
[0026] Furthermore, the aforementioned coal blending system for improving coke reactivity also includes 1 / 3 coking coal and coke.
[0027] As a specific implementation method, in the above-mentioned coal blending system for improving coke reactivity, the weight percentages of Y coal, low-branched fat coal, high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal, 1 / 3 coking coal, and coking coal are as follows: Y coal 24-36%, low-branched fat coal 16-25%, high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal 14-19%, 1 / 3 coking coal 11-17%, and coking coal 12-16%.
[0028] Furthermore, in the aforementioned coal blending system for improving coke reactivity, the proportion of particles larger than 1.5 mm and particles smaller than 1.0 mm in the mixed coal formed by pulverizing Y coal, low-branched fat coal, and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal is controlled as follows: the proportion of particles larger than 1.5 mm ≤ 21%, and the proportion of particles smaller than 1.0 mm ≤ 49% ≤ 61%.
[0029] In another aspect of the invention, the coking method for improving the reactivity of coke includes: coking using the above-described coal blending system.
[0030] Furthermore, the aforementioned coking methods for improving coke reactivity specifically include:
[0031] Step 1: Mix and crush Y coal, low-branched fat coal and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal to obtain mixed coal;
[0032] Step 2: Mix the blended coal with 1 / 3 coking coal and coke to obtain blended coal;
[0033] Step 3: Use the above-mentioned blended coal to produce coke.
[0034] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned coking method for improving coke reactivity, in step one, the proportion of particles larger than 1.5 mm and particles smaller than 1.0 mm in the mixed coal is controlled as follows: the proportion of particles larger than 1.5 mm ≤ 21%, and the proportion of particles smaller than 1.0 mm ≤ 49% ≤ 61%.
[0035] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned coking method for improving coke reactivity, in step three, the coking heating regime adopted is as follows: coking time 24.6-25.3h, standard temperature 1312-1321℃, and dry quenching method.
[0036] The above-mentioned test method for inertia tolerance is as follows: using the drum index The change value was used as the judgment criterion. Referring to YB / T4526-2016 "Technical Specification for Small Coke Ovens for Coking Tests", 15% inert material (non-caking lean coal) was added to the coking coal to conduct a 40kg test coke oven coking experiment. Then, the drum index of the coke was determined according to JIS K2151-2004 "Test Methods for Coke". This is used to determine the inertia tolerance.
[0037] In the coal blending system and coking method for improving coke reactivity of the present invention, by blending Y coal, high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal, and low-branched fat coal and mixing and pulverizing the three, while controlling their particle size distribution, the latent defects in coke structure can be reduced, thereby improving coke reactivity. Specifically: Y coal is a high-capacity inert coal, which can produce more stable and strongly binding liquid phase substances during coking pyrolysis; low-branched fat coal is a coking coal with low aliphatic branch content, low branching degree, and long aliphatic chain length, and has a more stable molecular structure. During the pyrolysis plastic stage of coking pyrolysis, the degree of pyrolysis is low, and a stable liquid intermediate phase can be formed; high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal is a high-hydrogen, low-oxygen, and highly inert coal. The low oxygen content indicates that it has fewer oxygen-containing functional groups, which is beneficial for coking. During pyrolysis, it is not easy to generate volatile substances and consumes less hydrogen free radicals. Due to its high hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio, lean coal has more inert substances, which can provide more condensation nuclei for the plastic liquid intermediate phase after being mixed with it, thus playing a role in the organizational structure. Y coal has a strong inertness tolerance, low branching degree of low-branched fat coal and long aliphatic chain length. After being mixed with lean coal with a high hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio, by controlling the proportion of particles >1.5mm and <1.0mm, Y coal can impregnate and encapsulate the inert substances of lean coal with a high hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio, forming stable interfacial molecular carbon bridges. The hydrogen free radicals of lean coal with a high hydrogen-to-oxygen ratio can generate more non-volatile plastics with the long aliphatic chains of low-branched fat coal. During the coking process, the coke layer is dense with thick pore walls and low porosity, with fewer hidden defects in the coke structure and high coke reactivity.
[0038] According to GB / T 4000-2014 "Test Methods for Coke Reactivity and Post-Reaction Strength", the coke produced by the method of improving coke reactivity of the present invention was tested for coke reactivity. The CRI value was only 18.2% to 22.3%, which shows that the coal blending system and coking method of the present invention can effectively improve coke reactivity.

[0162] In summary, the coal blending system and coking method of the present invention for improving coke reactivity, by incorporating a certain proportion of Y coal, low-branched fat coal, and high hydrogen-oxygen ratio lean coal into the coal blending system, controls the CRI value of coke to 18.2%–22.3%, which is far lower than the 26.4%–27.6% of the prior art. This effectively improves coke reactivity, thereby providing high-reactivity, high-quality metallurgical coke for large blast furnaces. More specifically, the method for improving coke reactivity of the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0163] 1. Effectively improves the reactivity of coke to 4000m 3 The reduction of coke ratio in blast furnaces of 1000 and above creates favorable conditions, significantly reducing the amount of high-quality coking coal used and lowering the coal blending costs for coking enterprises.
[0164] 2. Only the selection of a single type of coking coal, the adjustment of the coal blending structure, and the control of the particle size of the blended coal are required. There is no need to add additional non-coal substances with strong binding properties or special element passivating agents. There are no special restrictions on the production process conditions. It is easy to organize and implement production and does not increase the cost of coal blending or production.
