Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metallurgical raw materials and pretreatment technology, and in particular to a coal blending and coking method using a single-type coal reactivity kmeans algorithm. Background Art

[0002] Blast furnace ironmaking has always focused on the cold and hot indicators of coke, especially the strengthening of the high coke reaction strength CSR and coke crushing strength M40 indicators, but the application of the strengthening requirements of this indicator is proposed from the output of molten iron in the blast furnace ironmaking process. Therefore, in order to meet the requirements of the hot performance indicators of metallurgical coke in blast furnace production, coking enterprises need to add a large amount of high-quality coking coal and fat coal when blending coal for coking. The current shortage of high-quality coking coal resources affects the hot performance of coke in coking production, and also leads to high costs of blending coal for coking. At the same time, in response to the national dual-carbon strategic goals, blast furnace production needs to implement carbon reduction requirements. On the basis of ensuring that coke has a certain CSR and M40 strength, it is necessary to ensure the coke CSR index while appropriately improving the coke CRI index, so as to ensure that the blast furnace can maintain a high utilization coefficient while achieving the technical goal of carbon reduction. At present, Nippon Steel Corporation has developed low-carbonized coke raw materials using high-calcium coal. When the original coke CSR and DI15015 are 58% and 81.8% respectively, adding 0.5% calcium (CaO) catalyst to the coking coal can achieve about 5% carbon reduction in the coking and blast furnace continuous system; of course, when the coke reactivity CRI is increased, the strength CSR of the coke after reaction decreases, so the experiment needs to develop a process technology that can ensure the stability of the coke CSR, so as to achieve carbon reduction in the blast furnace while ensuring stable production and operation of the blast furnace. The extreme case of domestic coke thermal performance is the blast furnace coke quality index of the Bayi Steel Plant, whose CSR index is less than 40%, while the CRI can reach about 40%. Of course, its CSR is too low and its blast furnace operation utilization coefficient is not high. Summary of the invention

[0003] According to the technical problems mentioned in the above background technology, a method for coking coal using a single coal reactivity kmeans algorithm is provided. The present invention uses a single coal reactivity kmeans algorithm to prepare coke, while ensuring the cold strength M of the coke. 40 Under these conditions, the CRI of coke can be increased by 1-2%, while the hot strength CSR of coke can be guaranteed to maintain the relatively stable performance of the original index.

[0004] The technical means adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0005] A method for preparing coke and blending coal by using a single-type coal reactivity kmeans algorithm comprises the following steps:

[0009] Step 4: Generate a coal blending plan based on the Kmeans algorithm analysis of the coke quality.

[0010] Furthermore, the coal properties include: industrial analysis, total sulfur and gelatinous layer thickness.

[0015] Step 33: Perform K-means cluster analysis on the experimental coke mechanical strength and thermal property data after Z-score standardization to obtain the coking coal classification of each group;

[0016] Step 34: Mark and group the coke according to the mechanical strength and thermal properties based on the grouping results of the Kmeans algorithm;

[0017] Step 35: Determine the coal grade for the same type of coking coal according to national standards.

[0018] Furthermore, the coal blending scheme is formulated by selecting primary coal and secondary coal from the coal grade on the basis of meeting the requirements of ash content, sulfur content, volatile matter and adhesiveness of the blended coal.

[0019] Furthermore, the coal grades include: primary coal, secondary coal and auxiliary coal.

[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] The experiment selected production coking coal and carried out a 40kg experimental coke oven experiment; and conducted M40, M10, CRI, and CSR tests; based on the experimental results, the coking coal was refined and a coal blending plan was formed.

[0038] Table 1 Quality indicators

[0039]

[0040]

[0041] According to the coke quality, the Kmeans algorithm is used to classify coking coal as follows:

[0042] (1) Gas fertilizer coal: primary choice: none; secondary choice: Q1; auxiliary: Q2.

[0043] (2) Gas coal: the primary choice is Q4; the secondary choice is Q3.

[0044] (3) 1 / 3 coking coal: primary selection: 1 / 3J3, 1 / 3J4; secondary selection: 1 / 3J1; auxiliary selection: 1 / 3J2.

[0045] (4) Fat coal: F1, F2, F6 as the main choice; F3 as the secondary choice; F4, F5, F7 as the auxiliary choice.

[0046] (5) Coking coal: Mainly selected are J3, J7, J10, and J11; Secondary selected are J2, J5, and J6; Auxiliary selected are J1, J4, J8, and J9.

[0047] (6) Lean coal: primary choice: None; secondary choices: S1 and S2.

[0048] Table 2 Refinement classification results

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] Analysis of the experimental effect of 40kg coke oven coal blending:

[0052] According to the classification results, a 40kg experimental coke oven experiment was conducted. Scheme 1# is the original blend, with 1 / 3 J4 blended in 13%, F1 fat coal 7%, F7 fat coal 11%, coking coal J4, J5, J8 and J9 totaling 50%, and S2 lean coal blended in 14%. Schemes 2# to 9# increase the reactivity of coke while maintaining the stability or small fluctuation of the strength after the coke reaction. Schemes 2# to 4# increase 1 / 3 coking coal on the basis of 1#, blend low metamorphic fat coal and gas coal, and reduce lean coal. The main coal types account for 30%, 14% and 30%. Schemes 5# to 9# are mainly selected at 85% to 90%, supplemented by secondary selection and other coking coal.

[0053] Table 3 Experimental scheme of 40kg coke oven coal blending

[0054]

[0055] Table 4 and Table 5 are the indicators of some blended coal and coke quality respectively. The coke reactivity CRI and post-reaction strength CSR of the 1# production scheme are 22.3% and 67.4% respectively.

[0057]

[0058]

[0059] Table 5 Thermal properties of 2kg coke from coke oven

[0060]

[0061] From the data, we can see that the CRI of 2#~4# increases, and the strength after reaction decreases; the reactivity of 3# and 9# coke increases by 6.8 and 6.6 percentage points respectively, and the strength after reaction of coke also meets the requirements; it can be seen that by analyzing coking coal through Kmeans algorithm, the coal blending scheme of high-reactivity coke can be obtained.
