[0023] Table 1

[0024] Example 1 This embodiment provides a method for recovering fumed slag. First, a slag-making agent and a reducing agent are ground to a particle size of less than 100 mm. The specific recovery steps are as follows: As shown in Table 1, the liquid fumed slag flows intermittently into the side-blown combustion furnace through the chute, and anthracite as a reducing agent of 14% of the mass of the fumed slag is added to the side-blown combustion furnace, and limestone as a slag-making agent is added. The binary basicity CaO / SiO2 in the furnace is controlled to be 0.5, and the atmosphere is controlled to be an oxygen-rich atmosphere with an oxygen volume percentage of about 80%. The reaction is carried out at 1500°C to obtain molten iron and tailings, and the molten iron is continuously discharged from the iron mouth through the siphon port. During the reaction, the molar amount of CO in the reaction atmosphere of the slag layer is controlled to account for 96% of the sum of CO and CO2. The flue gas obtained by combustion is used to supplement the heat of the side-blown combustion furnace, so that the final flue gas temperature is 100°C higher than the slag temperature. The obtained molten iron can be directly used for steelmaking, and the tailings can be used in the construction industry.

[0025] The method can process 200,000 tons of liquid fumed slag annually.

[0026] Iron content in tailings: 1.5%.

[0027] Iron content in molten iron: 96.9%; Iron recovery rate: 96.64%.

[0028] Example 2 This embodiment provides a method for recovering fumed slag. First, a slag-making agent and a reducing agent are ground to a particle size of less than 100 mm. The specific recovery steps are as follows: As shown in Table 1, the liquid fumed slag flows intermittently into the side-blown combustion furnace through the chute, and 20% of the mass of the fumed slag is added to the side-blown combustion furnace. The reducing agent coke and slag-making agent quicklime are added, and the binary basicity CaO / SiO2 in the furnace is controlled to be 1.1. The atmosphere is controlled to be an oxygen-rich atmosphere with an oxygen volume percentage of about 60%. The reaction is carried out at 1550°C to obtain molten iron and tailings, and the molten iron is continuously discharged from the iron mouth through the siphon port. During the reaction, the molar amount of CO in the reaction atmosphere of the slag layer is controlled to account for 98% of the sum of CO and CO2. The flue gas obtained by combustion is used to supplement the heat of the side-blown combustion furnace, so that the final flue gas temperature is 200°C higher than the slag temperature. The obtained molten iron can be directly used for steelmaking, and the tailings can be used in the construction industry.

[0029] The method can process 200,000 tons of liquid fumed slag annually.

[0030] Iron content in tailings: 0.5%.

[0031] Iron content in molten iron: 94.9%; Iron recovery rate: 98.22%.

[0032] Example 3 This embodiment provides a method for recovering fumed slag. First, a slag-making agent and a reducing agent are ground to a particle size of less than 100 mm. The specific recovery steps are as follows: As shown in Table 1, the liquid fumed slag flows intermittently into the side-blown combustion furnace through the chute, and the reducing agent coal of 22% of the mass of the fumed slag is added into the side-blown combustion furnace, and the slag-making agent limestone is added. The binary basicity CaO / SiO2 in the furnace is controlled to be 0.8, and the atmosphere is controlled to be an oxygen-rich atmosphere with an oxygen volume percentage of 40% to 50%. The reaction is carried out at 1400°C to obtain molten iron and tailings, and the molten iron is continuously discharged from the iron mouth through the siphon port. During the reaction, the molar amount of CO in the reaction atmosphere of the slag layer is controlled to account for 99% of the sum of CO and CO2. The flue gas obtained by combustion is used to supplement the heat of the side-blown combustion furnace, so that the final flue gas temperature is 300°C higher than the slag temperature. The obtained molten iron can be directly used for steelmaking, and the tailings can be used in the construction industry.

[0033] The method can process 200,000 tons of liquid fumed slag annually.

[0034] Iron content in tailings: 2.5%.

[0035] Iron content in molten iron: 95.9%; Iron recovery rate: 95.02%.

[0036] Comparative Example 1 This comparative example provides a method for recovering fumed slag, which differs from Example 1 only in that, during the reaction, the atmosphere is controlled to be an oxygen-rich atmosphere with an oxygen volume percentage of about 95%, and the molar amount of CO in the reaction atmosphere of the slag layer is controlled to account for 85% of the sum of CO and CO2.

[0037] The iron content in the obtained tailings is 10%.

[0038] The iron content in the obtained molten iron is 98.7%; the iron recovery rate is 80.98%.

[0039] By using the fumed slag recovery method in the present application, 200,000 tons of liquid fumed slag can be processed annually. The processing speed is efficient, and the iron recovery rate can reach more than 95%, realizing the effective recovery of iron in the fumed slag. The iron content in the molten iron is more than 94%, and the molten iron can be directly used in the production and manufacture of steel or other ferroalloys. At the same time, the smelting is directly carried out in the blowing furnace, and the reducing agent is burned and participates in the reduction reaction at the same time, saving part of the energy consumption of heating. However, the molar amount of CO in the reaction atmosphere of the slag layer controlled in the comparative example is not within the range specified in the present application. Although the iron content in the obtained molten iron is very high, the iron content in the tailings is also very high, and the final iron recovery rate is low, and the full recovery of iron in the fumed slag cannot be achieved.

[0040] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the invention.
