By adjusting the gun position and oxygen pressure in different stages, uniform heating and rapid sintering of the furnace lining are achieved. This includes slow heating at a high gun position in the initial stage, gradually lowering the gun position to increase the temperature in the middle stage, and rapid heating at a low gun position in the later stage. The addition of coke is combined to optimize the heat distribution.
Significantly shorten the furnace drying time to within 35 minutes, improve the furnace drying efficiency, ensure uniform heating and safe sintering of the furnace lining, and extend the life of the furnace body.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of machinery, in particular to the technical field of mechanical components, and specifically to a high-efficiency converter drying method. Background Art
[0002] The converter lining consists of a permanent layer, a filling material, and a working layer. Currently, the main material used for the converter working layer is magnesia-carbon bricks. Before the new converter lining is put into use, it needs to be baked. The traditional baking process takes a long time, which not only affects production efficiency but also wastes energy. Chinese Patent Application No. 202310815935.4 discloses a converter baking process that requires a baking time of 240 minutes; Chinese Patent Application No. 201710576527.2 discloses a baking method for a 120t converter after replacing the refractory material of the lining, with a baking time of about 3 hours. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a converter high-efficiency furnace drying method, which shortens the furnace drying time.
[0004] The present invention is a high-efficiency converter drying method implemented by the following technical solution, comprising the following steps: a. Initial stage: Using a high gun position, the flame covers a large area and the heat is evenly distributed, which is suitable for the slow heating of the entire furnace lining and reduces the risk of thermal stress cracks. Its purpose is to drive away moisture from the furnace lining and prevent bursting caused by steam pressure; b. Mid-term stage: gradually lower the gun position, increase the temperature, promote the sintering of refractory materials, and form a dense layer; c. Late stage: In order to quickly heat up, low gun position baking is adopted, the flame impact is strong and the heat is concentrated.
[0005] Preferably, an ignition operation is performed before the initial stage. In 0-3 minutes, the gun position is controlled between 1650-1700 mm and the oxygen pressure is controlled between 0.20-0.23 MPa, so as to quickly ignite the coke in the furnace. A lower oxygen pressure will not play the role of oxygen in assisting combustion, while a higher oxygen pressure will be detrimental to igniting the unignited coke.
[0006] As a preference, before ignition, 7-10 tons of coke should be prepared in front of the furnace and ignited in the scrap steel hopper, and the ignited coke should be added to the furnace, and 3-5 tons of coke should be prepared in the high-level silo.
[0007] Preferably, the initial stage includes adjusting the oxygen pressure to between 0.29-0.35 MPa after the ignition operation, that is, 3 minutes later, and the gun position remains unchanged.
[0008] As preferred, the lance position is lowered to 1580-1630mm in the middle stage, i.e. 5.13-15min, and the oxygen pressure is controlled between 0.29-0.35Mpa.
[0009] As preferred, the lance position is lowered to 1400-1450mm in the later stage, i.e. 25-27min, and the oxygen pressure is controlled between 0.29-0.35Mpa.
[0010] As preferred, 300-500kg of coke is added from the high-position stock bin every 3-5min between 12-30min.
[0011] The method has the following advantages: in the initial stage, the high lance position is adopted, the flame covers a large range, the heat is uniformly distributed, the whole lining is slowly heated, the risk of thermal stress cracking is reduced, the moisture in the lining is removed, and the steam pressure is prevented from causing explosion; then in the middle stage, the lance position is gradually lowered, the temperature is increased, the refractory material is promoted to sinter, and a dense layer is formed; finally in the later stage, the temperature is rapidly increased, the low lance position is adopted for roasting, the flame impact is strong, the heat is concentrated, and the total roasting time can be controlled within 35min under the condition of ensuring the roasting effect, so that the roasting efficiency is significantly improved; the purpose of adopting different lance positions for roasting is to optimize the roasting effect, ensure that the lining is uniformly heated and safely sintered, and prolong the service life of the furnace body.

When the oxygen supply is 26 minutes, the gun position is lowered to 1430mm, and the oxygen gun is controlled at 0.33Mpa; in order to quickly heat up, low gun position baking is adopted, the flame impact is strong, and the heat is concentrated.
[0016] g. When the oxygen supply reaches 33.5min, turn off the oxygen and lift the gun.
