Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of industrial annealing furnace process waste heat recovery and gas resource recycling, and in particular relates to an energy-saving steel rolling annealing furnace protective gas resource recovery and recycling system. Background Art

[0002] The steel rolling unit is an indispensable part of the production process of steel industry products. During the annealing process of the steel rolling continuous and bell-type annealing furnace equipment, the radiation tube heating process is adopted to control the flue gas temperature and protective gas in the furnace to meet the quality requirements of steel products. During the working process, the protective gas usually uses high-purity nitrogen, high-purity hydrogen, nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas and ammonia decomposition gas. Specifically, in the process of heating and cooling the annealing furnace, nitrogen, as a neutral gas, can effectively prevent the oxidation of components; hydrogen can effectively reduce the oxidized elements and some metal oxides in the steel when the temperature is too high by using its reducing property, thereby protecting the quality of the workpiece; because hydrogen has strong permeability and high thermal conductivity, it can significantly improve the heat transfer efficiency and make the mechanical properties of the product more uniform.

[0003] According to the process requirements and product characteristics of the cold rolling annealing furnace, the common nitrogen-hydrogen mixed gas ratios include 25% N2 + 75% H2, 75% N2 + 25% H2, 95% N2 + 5% H2, etc. During the operation of the annealing furnace, the protective gas has only a small amount of hydrogen loss, and the furnace temperature is about 400-700 ° C. The protective gas after the furnace is almost directly emptied, resulting in a double waste of nitrogen and hydrogen protective gas resources and waste heat energy. The amount of oxygen and nitrogen used in steel mills varies with the rhythm of the steel production process. It is necessary to rely on production scheduling to maintain the balance of oxygen and nitrogen production and consumption between oxygen production and metallurgical processes. The practice of recycling nitrogen in the furnace can also solve the problem of nitrogen and oxygen load mismatch to a certain extent.

[0004] At present, in the prior art, a protective gas recycling device is designed, which purifies the protective gas discharged from the furnace body and returns it to the furnace body for recycling. The protective gas inlet of the protective gas recycling device is connected to the protective gas outlet of the furnace body, and the protective gas outlet of the protective gas recycling device is connected to the protective gas inlet of the furnace body. Although this prior art can recycle the protective gas for the continuous annealing furnace, it does not recycle its heat, resulting in most of the heat being wasted.

[0005] In addition, in another prior art, a heat energy recycling device is designed, and the protective gas in the hood annealing furnace is sent to the heat exchanger through a gas circulation pump. The protective gas undergoes heat exchange and is cooled in the heat exchanger. The cooled protective gas flows back from the heat exchanger to the hood annealing furnace to achieve efficient annealing or cooling. This approach saves energy to a certain extent and is more suitable for hood annealing furnaces. For continuous annealing furnaces, the waste heat of flue gas can meet the preheating of coal gas and air. This application further improves the energy utilization efficiency of the furnace through the self-compensation of the protective gas heat.

[0006] In addition, the prior art also designs a nitrogen-hydrogen protective gas separation system for steel rolling annealing furnaces, which separates nitrogen and hydrogen protective gas by using membrane separation technology after cooling, deoxidizing and drying the nitrogen and hydrogen protective gas, and obtains hydrogen-rich mixed gas for recycling. This practice only recycles hydrogen, wastes a large amount of separated nitrogen, increases the load of the oxygen production system of steel enterprises, and even worse, increases the economic cost of the steel rolling process.

The gas storage device 601 uses a plurality of gas storage tanks arranged in parallel to receive and store the protective gas output from the second purification subsystem 5. The first flow detection device 602 uses a thermal flow meter, which is installed at the outlet of the gas storage tank to measure the nitrogen and hydrogen flow of the protective gas in the corresponding gas storage tank, and transmits the thermal flow meter signal to the workstation 8 through the sensor.

[0031] Further, the gas supply subsystem 7 includes: a first air inlet pipeline 701, a second air inlet pipeline 702, a gas mixing device 704, a pressure detection device, a pressure reducing device 703, a gas buffer device 705 and a second flow detection device 706. The first air inlet pipeline 701 and the second air inlet pipeline 702 are respectively connected to the gas mixing device 704, and are used to respectively introduce nitrogen and hydrogen into the gas mixing device 704. The gas mixing device 704 is a gas mixing tank, and the gas mixing tank is also connected to the gas storage tank pipeline, and is used to receive the protective gas from the gas storage tank. According to the control of the workstation 8, nitrogen or hydrogen is introduced into the received protective gas to achieve the nitrogen-hydrogen ratio readjustment. The pressure reducing device 703 adopts a pressure reducer or a pressure reducing valve, and the pressure reducing device 703 is respectively installed on the first air inlet pipeline 701 and the second air inlet pipeline 702, and is arranged close to the gas mixing tank, and is used to reduce the pressure of the gas introduced through the first air inlet pipeline 701 and the second air inlet pipeline 702. The pressure detection device uses a pressure gauge to detect the pressure of the gas introduced into the first air inlet pipeline 701 and the second air inlet pipeline 702. The gas buffer device 705 is a plurality of gas buffer tanks arranged in parallel, one end of the gas buffer tank is connected to the gas mixing tank pipeline, and the other end of the gas buffer tank is connected to the annealing furnace 1 pipeline, which is used to buffer the protective gas to be input into the annealing furnace 1. The above-mentioned second flow detection device 706 also uses a thermal flow meter, which is installed at the outlet of the gas buffer tank to measure the nitrogen and hydrogen flow of the protective gas in the corresponding gas buffer tank. The second flow detection device 706 is also connected to the workstation 8 signal, and then the thermal flow meter signal collected by the thermal flow meter is transmitted to the workstation 8.

[0032] Further preferably, the gas supply subsystem 7 also includes a second stopcock, a control valve and a heat circulation pipeline. The second stopcock is arranged on the pipeline between the gas buffer tank and the gas mixing tank, the control valve is arranged on the pipeline between the gas buffer tank and the annealing furnace 1, one end of the heat circulation pipeline is connected to the pipeline between the second stopcock and the gas mixing tank, and the other end of the heat circulation pipeline is connected to the pipeline between the heat recovery system and the second stopcock and the gas buffer tank.

[0033] Both the air supply subsystem 7 and the air supply subsystem 7 are controlled by the workstation 8, which receives the thermal flow meter signals from the air supply subsystem 7 and the air supply subsystem 7 respectively, and issues instructions to the sensors corresponding to the first air intake pipeline 701 and the second air intake pipeline 702 according to the gas ratio set by the unit, so as to adjust the nitrogen and hydrogen intake flow rates.

[0034] The workflow of this embodiment is now described: When the annealing furnace 1 just starts production, the workstation 8 will first issue instructions to the two air inlet pipelines according to the gas ratio set by the unit to adjust the nitrogen and hydrogen intake amounts.

[0035] When the annealing furnace 1 is in normal production, smoke and protective gas will be discharged. The smoke is released into the atmosphere through the smoke exhaust device 2, and the protective gas enters the first purification system, the heat recovery system, the second purification system, the gas circulation system and the gas supply system in sequence through the bypass pipe connected to the circulation pipe, and then returns to the annealing furnace 1 to continue production.

[0036] The protective gas first enters the first purification system, and the flow rate of the protective gas is adjusted by adjusting the baffle 301. The induced draft fan 302 extracts the protective gas, and the protective gas enters the dust removal tower 303 and the oil removal tower 304 in turn to remove dust and oil. Then, the protective gas enters the heat recovery system, and after completing the heat exchange with the protective gas in the gas supply system in the heat exchanger 402, it enters the second purification system. The protective gas is pressurized by the gas booster pump 501, the impurity oxygen is removed in the catalytic deoxidation tower 502, and the excess water is removed by the adsorption dryer 503, and then enters the gas circulation system. The protective gas will be stored in multiple gas storage devices 601 and flow to the gas mixing device 704 of the gas supply system. Nitrogen and hydrogen are supplemented by the first and second air inlet pipelines 702 in front of the gas mixing device 704 to perform the ratio of gas content. When the gas is mixed, it is sent to multiple parallel gas buffer devices 705 for buffering, and then returned to the annealing furnace 1 through the corresponding valve control. Among them, the protective gas at the outlet of the gas mixing device 704 will complete heat exchange with the protective gas from the first purification system through the blower 401 and the heat exchanger 402 of the heat recovery system, and then return to the pipeline before the inlet of the gas buffer device 705 in the gas supply system. A second stopcock valve is provided between the pipelines of the gas mixing device 704 outlet and the gas buffer device 705 inlet.

[0037] When the annealing furnace 1 stops production due to a fault or a plan, smoke and protective gas are exhausted, and the smoke is released into the atmosphere through the smoke exhaust device 2, and the protective gas is released into the atmosphere after passing through the circulation pipeline and the venting pipeline.
