Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steelmaking, and in particular to a dephosphorization method for reducing converter steelmaking costs. Background Art
[0002] Phosphorus is a harmful impurity in steel materials. High phosphorus content will increase the brittleness of steel and reduce its toughness and ductility, seriously affecting the performance and quality of steel. In the converter steelmaking process, dephosphorization is a key step, and its efficiency and cost are directly related to the production benefits and market competitiveness of steel companies. Although the traditional double-slag method can achieve effective dephosphorization to a certain extent, it often has high costs, low efficiency, and complex and time-consuming operations. The single-slag method is popular because of its simple process and easy operation, but how to reduce costs while ensuring the dephosphorization effect has always been a hot topic in the steelmaking field. The reaction formula for converter dephosphorization is as follows:
[0003] 2[P]+5(FeO)+3CaO=(3CaO·P2O5)+5[Fe]
[0004] Donghua Iron & Steel (Tangshan Donghua Iron & Steel Enterprise Group Co., Ltd.) adopts the single-slag method for converter steelmaking. The single-slag method only produces slag once during the blowing process, without dumping or removing slag in the middle. For most types of steel, phosphorus in steel is a very harmful element, and the lower the better. However, when the phosphorus content in molten iron is high, the dephosphorization effect of the single-slag method is difficult to meet the strict requirements of the steel type.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a dephosphorization method for reducing the cost of converter steelmaking. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dephosphorization method for reducing the cost of converter steelmaking, so as to solve the problems of high dephosphorization cost, low efficiency, complex operation and long time consumption in the prior art.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0013] S4, bottom blowing and stirring throughout the whole process; process detection and adjustment of temperature, slag basicity and phosphorus content;
[0014] S5, after the converter dephosphorization smelting is completed, the molten steel is tapped and the slag is poured.
[0015] Furthermore, after pretreatment in step S1, the temperature of the molten iron is 1300-1450°C; the mass content of C is 4.3%-5.14%; the mass content of Si is 0.12%-0.44%; the mass content of Mn is 0.20%-0.51%; the mass content of P is 0.132%-0.166%; and the mass content of S is 0.012%-0.054%.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, the amount of scrap steel added is based on a mass ratio of molten iron to scrap steel of 4.29 to 5.78:1.
[0017] Furthermore, during the bottom blowing process in step S4, the oxygen flow rate is 35000-45000 Nm 3 / h, oxygen supply time is 12 minutes and 30 seconds.
[0018] Furthermore, the component contents in the slag are controlled in the later stage of smelting as follows: the final slag basicity is 2.4-4; FeO is 10%-29%; P2O5 is 2.8%-4.4%; MgO is 7%-12%; CaO is 30%-42%; SiO2 is 8%-14%; and Al2O3 is 1.2%-5.7%.
[0019] Furthermore, the temperature of the molten steel is regulated to be 1600° C. to 1680° C. during steel tapping; the component contents in the molten steel are: C content is 0.034% to 0.09%; Si content is 0.001%; and Mn content is 0.035% to 0.09%.
[0020] Furthermore, after the dephosphorization smelting in the converter is completed in step S5, a certain amount of slag is retained in the converter for slag splashing to protect the furnace.
[0021] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
