Description

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sintering, and in particular to a method for reducing the generation of hydrogen chloride in sintering fume. Background Art

[0002] Sintered ore is the main iron-containing raw material for blast furnace ironmaking, and the stable operation of the sintering production line is an important factor in ensuring the supply of sintered ore. With the implementation of environmental protection policies, under the ultra-low emission policy of sintering flue gas, activated coke desulfurization and denitrification systems are widely used. During the operation of the sintering activated coke desulfurization and denitrification system, the hydrogen chloride contained in the sintering flue gas will react with ammonia in the ammonia injection area of ​​the activated coke system to form ammonium chloride. The accumulated ammonium chloride will cause blockage of the activated coke system and affect the permeability of the material layer. On the other hand, ammonium chloride adheres to the inner wall of the system, which will cause corrosion of the system and affect the operating life of the system. Under the ultra-low emission control standard of flue gas, the stable, efficient and smooth operation of the sintering desulfurization and denitrification system is the key to ensuring the stable production of the production line. At present, there is little relevant information specifically aimed at suppressing hydrogen chloride emissions from the source in response to the problem of hydrogen chloride in sintering flue gas. Summary of the invention

[0003] Technical problem to be solved: In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for reducing the generation of hydrogen chloride in sintering flue gas, thereby reducing the generation of hydrogen chloride in sintering flue gas, ensuring the stable operation of subsequent activated coke desulfurization and denitrification, and improving the production line operation rate and equipment service life.

[0004] Technical solution: A method for reducing the generation of hydrogen chloride in sintering flue gas according to the present invention comprises the following steps: Step 1: Add water to iron ore powder, Class A flux, solid fuel, and return ore, mix and granulate them into a sintering upper layer mixture with appropriate moisture content; Step 2: Mix iron ore powder, type B flux, alkaline additive, solid fuel, and returned ore with water and granulate them into a sintering lower layer mixture with appropriate moisture content; Step 3: Lay the base material on the sintering trolley, lay the sintering lower layer mixed material on the base material to obtain the first material layer L1, and then lay the sintering upper layer mixed material on the first material layer L1 to obtain the second material layer L2; Step 4: Ignite the second fabric layer L2 to start the sintering process.

[0005] Preferably, in step 1, the type A flux is one or a combination of serpentine, limestone and dolomite.

[0006] Preferably, in step 2, the type B flux is quicklime, slaked lime or a combination thereof.

[0007] Preferably, the sintered upper layer mixture and the sintered lower layer mixture use the same binary basicity and solid fuel ratio.

[0008] Preferably, the binary basicity is controlled at 1.5-3.0.

[0009] Preferably, the solid fuel ratio is controlled at 2.5-3.5%.

[0010] Preferably, in step 2, the alkaline additive is at most one of flake caustic soda, soda and baking soda.

[0011] Preferably, the amount of the alkaline additive used is 0-3% of the dry weight ratio of the sintering lower layer mixture.

[0012] Preferably, the thickness of the sintered upper mixed material is 700-900 mm, the thickness of the sintered lower mixed material is 100-200 mm, and the total thickness of the sintered material layer is controlled at 800-1100 mm.

[0013] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: According to the analysis and research, the sulfur dioxide gas released in the material layer during the sintering process reacts chemically with the soluble chloride salt in the lower water-containing material layer during the process of passing through the material layer to generate hydrogen chloride gas, which eventually enters the sintering flue gas. The chemical reaction formula can be expressed as follows: 2SO2+2H2O+4NaCl+O2=4HCl+2Na2SO4; According to the distribution and change law of sulfur dioxide in the sintering machine windbox recorded in relevant literature, sulfur dioxide is released less in the front part of sintering, and there is a phenomenon of concentrated release in the windbox at the end of sintering. This is because the sulfur dioxide generated in the upper part of the material layer will be absorbed by the water-containing material layer at the bottom of the material layer, so it is released less in the front windbox. As the sintering combustion layer moves downward, the water-containing layer at the bottom of the original material layer burns and releases sulfur dioxide in a concentrated manner, so the tail of the sintering machine occurs. Because the concentration of hydrogen chloride in the flue gas is low and cannot be accurately detected, and hydrogen chloride is highly soluble in water, according to the generation mechanism of hydrogen chloride and the release law of sulfur dioxide in the flue gas, the downward movement of hydrogen chloride generated in the upper material layer of sintering will also be absorbed by the lower water-containing material layer. By adding materials that can neutralize hydrogen chloride in the lower material layer of sintering, the amount of hydrogen chloride generated in the flue gas can be significantly reduced, that is, the problem of poor operation of the subsequent flue gas activated coke desulfurization and denitrification system caused by the presence of hydrogen chloride in the sintering flue gas can be solved, and the operation efficiency and service life of the activated coke desulfurization and denitrification system can be improved.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: The sintering method of the present invention adopts a double-layer material distribution method, adopts a strong alkaline flux in the sintering lower layer mixed material, and adds alkaline substances, so that the hydrogen chloride generated in the material layer is neutralized and absorbed in the lower material layer during the sintering process, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the generation of hydrogen chloride, solving the problem that the presence of hydrogen chloride in the flue gas causes the subsequent flue gas activated coke desulfurization and denitrification system to operate poorly, and improving the operating efficiency and service life of the activated coke desulfurization and denitrification system.
