Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of metallurgical industry, and in particular to a method and system for recovering waste heat from wind quenching and granulation of metallurgical waste slag into beads. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of the metallurgical industry, a large amount of high-temperature waste slag is generated. These waste slags contain a large amount of heat energy. The traditional treatment method is usually to treat the high-temperature waste slag through natural cooling or water quenching, which not only wastes the residual heat resources contained in the waste slag, but also causes a series of environmental problems. In particular, the water quenching cooling process will produce a large amount of wastewater, and the consumption of water resources is huge. At the same time, the wastewater generated after the cooling water comes into contact with the high-temperature waste slag contains a large amount of heavy metals and other harmful substances. Improper treatment will cause pollution to the environment. In addition, although the natural cooling method reduces the consumption of water resources, the cooling speed is slow, the waste slag occupies a large amount of yard, increases the operating costs of the enterprise, and fails to effectively recover the heat energy in the waste slag.
[0003] High-temperature waste slag contains a large amount of thermal energy, but existing treatment technologies, such as natural cooling and water quenching cooling, cannot effectively recover this thermal energy. Although natural cooling does not require additional resource investment, the entire cooling process is slow, and the heat energy is dissipated into the air and cannot be reused. During the water quenching cooling process, the high temperature of the waste slag is quickly taken away by the cooling water, but the heat energy in the wastewater is not recovered, resulting in a large amount of energy waste.

This process not only further reduces the temperature of the waste slag, but also effectively captures the heat energy in the waste gas and slows down the heat energy loss.
[0047] A condensation module, connected to the spray cooling module, for condensing the cooling medium vapor into a liquid cooling medium;
[0048] Specifically, the function of the condensation module is to condense the cooling medium vapor generated in the spray cooling module and convert it into liquid cooling medium.

[0056] Specifically, the high-pressure airflow of the granulation device is provided by a high-pressure fan, and the shape of the nozzle design can ensure that the airflow evenly covers the surface of the waste residue, avoiding local overcooling or overheating during the cooling process, thereby ensuring that the waste residue cools at a uniform rate and ultimately generates solid particles of uniform size. By precisely controlling the cooling rate and granulation conditions, the size and shape of granular or beaded particles can be optimized for subsequent processing and recycling.
[0057] The spray cooling module includes multiple spray devices, which are equipped with automatic regulating valves.

The waste heat is transferred to other modules through the heat transfer medium water or steam for process heating or space heating.
[0062] Specifically, the heat exchanger of the waste heat recovery module transfers the waste heat from the condensation and granulation process through high-efficiency heat-conducting materials.

[0069] A method for recovering waste heat from metallurgical waste slag granulation into beads by air quenching, comprising the following steps:
[0070] S1. Waste slag melting treatment:
[0071] The high-temperature metallurgical slag is discharged from the smelting furnace and transported to the slag wind quenching granulation device. The slag is in a molten state and the temperature is usually maintained between 1200℃ and 1600℃. At this time, the slag has extremely high thermal energy and is in a molten state with good fluidity, which is suitable for granulation. The molten slag flows into the granulation device through the conveying system, and the molten slag is quickly cooled into a solid state under the subsequent high-speed airflow.
[0072] Air quenching granulation:
[0073] The slag wind quenching granulation module is used to quickly cool the molten metallurgical slag. The slag is broken into granular or beaded solids by high-speed airflow. The high-speed airflow provided by the high-pressure fan is evenly distributed on the surface of the slag, causing it to quickly cool to a solid state. During the granulation process, the airflow not only cools the molten slag, but also breaks the slag into fine particles through rapid mechanical impact. This step ensures the uniformity of the slag particles while maximizing the granulation efficiency to generate small granular slag suitable for subsequent treatment.
[0074] S2, spray cooling:
[0075] After granulation is completed, the high-temperature waste slag and waste gas are secondary cooled by the spray cooling module. The module automatically adjusts the amount of cooling water sprayed through an intelligent spray device to adapt to the temperature of the waste slag and the speed of the airflow during different granulation processes. Through multi-stage nozzles, the cooling water covers the surface of the waste slag and waste gas, fully contacts them, and further reduces the temperature of the granulated waste slag. At the same time, the cooling water absorbs the heat in the high-temperature waste gas, evaporates into water vapor, and forms a large amount of cooling medium steam. Spray cooling not only significantly reduces the temperature of the waste slag, but also plays a role in capturing the waste gas generated during the granulation process, ensuring the efficiency of subsequent waste gas treatment.
[0076] S3, water vapor condensation:
[0077] The water vapor generated during the spray cooling process is condensed through the condensation module. The water vapor enters the condensation device through the condensation pipe. The condensation plate is closely integrated with the cooling water circulation system. The water vapor is quickly condensed into liquid water by utilizing the efficient thermal conductivity of the metal plate. The condensed water enters the circulating water module through the drainage system for subsequent circulation. During the condensation process, the condensation plate and the condensation pipe surface not only cool the water vapor, but also release the condensation waste heat. This waste heat is conducted through the metal plate and enters the waste heat recovery module, further optimizing the waste heat utilization efficiency.
[0078] S4, waste heat recovery:
[0079] The waste heat recovery module extracts heat from the granulation and condensation process through the heat exchange device for process heating or other needs. The heat exchanger in this module is made of high-efficiency thermal conductive materials, which can concentrate the heat released during the condensation and granulation process and transfer it to process equipment, such as process hot water devices, process preheating equipment or heating systems. This step ensures that the waste heat released during the granulation and cooling of metallurgical waste slag can be maximized and reused, which not only reduces the overall energy consumption, but also provides additional thermal energy resources.
[0080] S5. Circulating water utilization:
[0081] The condensed liquid water returns to the spray cooling module through the circulating water module, forming a closed-loop circulating water system. The water storage tank in the system is used to store the cooling water recovered by the condensation module, and the circulating pump ensures that the water can be stably transported to the spray device for recycling. At the same time, the circulating water system is equipped with a filtering device to remove impurities in the cooling water and ensure the cleanliness of the cooling water. The filtered and purified cooling water is transported to the spray cooling module again for reuse, effectively reducing the consumption of fresh water resources and improving the resource utilization of the entire system.
[0082] S6. Waste gas treatment:
[0083] The waste gas generated during the granulation and cooling process is treated by the waste gas treatment module. The waste gas first passes through the dust removal device to remove the particulate matter in it, ensuring that the subsequent purification process will not be interfered with by particle pollution. Then, the waste gas passes through the gas purification equipment to remove harmful chemicals contained in the waste gas, including sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), etc. Through the multi-stage purification system, the harmful substances in the waste gas are thoroughly filtered or chemically absorbed, and finally meet the environmental protection standards. The treated waste gas can be discharged safely to avoid secondary pollution to the environment.
[0084] Method summary:
[0085] The waste heat recovery method for metallurgical waste slag wind quenching granulation into beads realizes the rapid cooling and granulation of metallurgical waste slag by combining efficient wind quenching granulation with spray cooling. Through the condensation and waste heat recovery module, the heat energy in the granulation and cooling process is fully utilized, and the waste heat is recovered for process heating or heating, thereby improving the energy utilization rate of the system. The whole method has significant energy-saving and environmental benefits, especially in water resource circulation and waste gas treatment, which can meet strict environmental protection requirements and has broad industrial application prospects.
