Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric arc furnaces, and particularly to an electric arc furnace wall structure based on refractory bricks and a mixed masonry method. Background Art

[0002] The inner side of the steel shell of the electric arc furnace is lined with refractory bricks to form a steelmaking molten pool. Molten steel undergoes a full oxidation-reduction reaction in the molten pool, and the molten steel in the molten pool will be fully stirred and heated to boiling. The reaction and stirring of the molten steel cause wear and tear on the refractory bricks of the furnace wall. There are mainly two types of refractory bricks, magnesite bricks and magnesia-carbon bricks, with the same size specifications.

[0003] The main component of the refractory magnesite brick is magnesia. Its structure is relatively simple, with high density, high price, no peculiar smell, but it is easy to break, not resistant to high-temperature reactions and scouring of molten steel. The furnace wall made entirely of magnesite bricks can only produce molten steel for an average of 32 heats per lining.

[0004] The refractory magnesia-carbon brick is made of magnesite, graphite carbon and binder, with a lower price. It releases odoriferous substances during chemical reactions at high temperatures, and there is a strong reaction smell within a range of 100 meters around when starting a new furnace. However, it is resistant to high-temperature reactions and scouring of molten steel. The furnace wall made entirely of magnesia-carbon bricks can produce molten steel for an average of 70 heats per lining. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides an electric arc furnace wall structure based on refractory bricks and a mixed masonry method. By mixing and laying refractory magnesite bricks and refractory magnesia-carbon bricks, it can significantly reduce peculiar smell, meet the requirements of national standard detection, greatly reduce the complaint rate, and at the same time increase the number of times the furnace body is used. After mixing, the furnace wall can produce molten steel for an average of no less than 65 heats per lining.

[0006] To achieve the above technical features, the object of the present invention is realized as follows: The electric arc furnace wall structure based on refractory bricks includes a first brick wall layer laid on the bottom layer of the furnace body. The top of the first brick wall layer is provided with a second brick wall layer arranged in a circular shape. The top of the second brick wall layer is provided with a third brick wall layer in a circular shape with a gradually expanding diameter. The top of the third brick wall layer is provided with a fourth brick wall layer in a circular shape with a gradually expanding diameter. The top of the fourth brick wall layer is provided with a fifth brick wall layer in a circular shape with a gradually expanding diameter. The top of the fifth brick wall layer is provided with a sixth brick wall layer in a circular shape with a gradually expanding diameter. The top of the sixth brick wall layer is provided with multiple top brick wall layers with equal diameters. All the brick wall layers together form the furnace wall structure. The outer wall of the furnace wall structure and the furnace shell are filled with magnesite sand to form a magnesite sand filling layer; one-third of the entire furnace wall structure uses refractory magnesia-carbon bricks, and two-thirds uses refractory magnesite bricks.

[0007] Preferably, the first brick layer is made of refractory magnesia-carbon bricks.

[0008] Preferably, the second brick layer is made of refractory magnesia bricks.

[0009] Preferably, the third and fourth brick layers are all made of refractory magnesia-carbon bricks.

[0010] Preferably, the fifth brick wall layer is made of one-quarter refractory magnesia bricks and three-quarters refractory magnesia-carbon bricks, and the refractory magnesia bricks and refractory magnesia-carbon bricks are alternately laid.

[0011] Preferably, the top brick wall layer includes a seventh brick wall layer, an eighth brick wall layer, a ninth brick wall layer, and a tenth brick wall layer that are successively stacked and have the same diameter.

[0012] Preferably, the seventh brick wall layer, the eighth brick wall layer, the ninth brick wall layer, and the tenth brick wall layer are all made of refractory magnesia bricks.

[0013] Preferably, the refractory magnesia-carbon bricks are continuously baked at a temperature of 400°C to 450°C for at least 32 to 35 hours before being laid.

[0014] Preferably, the furnace wall structure is applicable to the furnace wall of an alkaline electric arc furnace.

[0015] On the other hand, the present invention provides a hybrid laying method for an electric arc furnace wall structure based on refractory bricks, comprising the following steps: Step 1, during the production of the furnace wall structure, the first layer is entirely laid with a refractory magnesia-carbon brick base. Before using new refractory magnesia-carbon bricks, they are put into a drying resistance kiln in batches and baked at a certain temperature for a period of time; Step 2, after the first layer is laid, the second layer is then laid, and the second layer is entirely made of refractory magnesia bricks; Step 3, after the second layer is laid, the third and fourth layers are then laid, and the third and fourth layers are all laid with baked refractory magnesia-carbon bricks; Step 4, after the fourth layer is laid, the fifth layer is then laid. The fifth layer of refractory bricks uses one-quarter refractory magnesia bricks and three-quarters baked refractory magnesia-carbon bricks, and the refractory magnesia bricks and refractory magnesia-carbon bricks are alternately laid; Step 5, after the fourth layer is laid, the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth layers are then laid, and the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth layers are all made of magnesia bricks.

[0016] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The electric arc furnace wall structure based on refractory bricks of the present invention can significantly increase the number of times the furnace body is used, greatly reduce odors, meet the national standard detection requirements, reduce the complaint rate, lower the high-intensity labor frequency of operators and the procurement cost of refractory bricks, and at the same time improve the molten steel production efficiency. 2. The furnace wall structure fabricated by the present invention seals the air vents of the furnace body after masonry. The part that does not come into contact with molten steel is magnesite brick, which does not produce odor. The magnesite-carbon brick that emits odor comes into contact with molten steel. Through electrode arc separation and reaction with oxygen in the molten steel, the odoriferous gas is further reduced. After being treated by dust removal and odor removal equipment, the odor is significantly reduced. After inspection, it fully meets the national standard requirements, and the complaint rate is also greatly reduced. On average, 65 heats of molten steel can be produced for each furnace wall masonry.

[0017] 3. The average weight of the refractory brick is 15 kg. A total of 15.5 tons of refractory bricks need to be transported for each furnace wall masonry, and it requires continuous work for three working days, with extremely high labor intensity. After extending the service life of the furnace wall, the high-intensity labor frequency of the operators is reduced, and at the same time, the production efficiency of molten steel is improved.

[0018] 4. The furnace wall of the present invention is changed from all magnesite bricks before to one-third magnesite-carbon bricks and two-thirds magnesite bricks now, and the cost of the bricks is greatly reduced. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] Further, the seventh brick wall layer 7, the eighth brick wall layer 8, the ninth brick wall layer 9, and the tenth brick wall layer 10 are all made of refractory magnesia bricks. By using refractory magnesia bricks, the cost is effectively reduced.

[0030] Furthermore, before the refractory magnesia-carbon bricks are laid, they are continuously baked at a temperature of 400°C to 450°C for at least 32 to 35 hours.

[0031] Furthermore, before the refractory magnesia-carbon bricks are laid, they are baked at 400°C for 32 hours.
