Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of carburizers, in particular to a uniform granulation process for a low-nitrogen and low-hydrogen carburizer. Background Art

[0002] In the smelting process of steel products, the smelting loss of carbon in the molten iron is often increased due to factors such as long smelting time, insulation time, and overheating time, resulting in a decrease in the carbon content in the molten iron, which leads to the carbon content in the molten iron failing to reach the expected theoretical value of refining; the carbon-containing substance added to make up for the carbon content burned during the steel smelting process is called a recarburizer. The existing recarburizer contains many impurities, and graphitization treatment is often used to reduce impurities. However, the recarburizer after graphitization treatment still has some impurities, and the carbon particles of the graphitized recarburizer have small pores and poor permeability, which cannot increase the carbon particles. The specific surface area of ​​the carbon particles makes it difficult for the carbon particles to contact the molten iron in the molten state, resulting in a decrease in the absorption rate and carbonization efficiency; the existing carbonizers have more nitrogen and hydrogen impurities, and a high nitrogen content may affect the uniform distribution of carbon, resulting in uneven carbonization, or even excessive or insufficient carbon, thereby affecting the quality of castings or smelted products; excessive nitrogen content may cause crack-like pores in castings, affecting the quality of castings; excessive hydrogen content may cause the carbon element in the carbonizer to be diluted, reducing its carbon content and purity, thereby affecting the performance and quality of the product; for this purpose, a uniform granulation process for a low-nitrogen and low-hydrogen carbonizer is provided.
