AI Technical Summary
During the blast furnace start-up process, there are problems such as insufficient heat reserve in the hearth, poor furnace condition stability, low efficiency of the cooling system, and hearth accumulation, which lead to low physical temperature of molten iron, poor permeability, frequent slag shedding, and low gas utilization.
By dynamically adjusting the soft water flow rate, temperature, and tuyere configuration, the cooling regime is optimized. This includes reducing the soft water flow rate and temperature at the beginning of boiler start-up, gradually increasing the water temperature and adjusting the tuyere diameter and wind speed in the middle stage, and combining dynamic monitoring and emergency handling to ensure uniform preheating of the furnace hearth and coordinated adjustment of the tuyeres.
It achieved a 40% improvement in slag stability, a 3.5% reduction in heat loss, a 44-45% increase in gas utilization, an 8-10 kg/t reduction in fuel ratio, a stable air volume of 4500 m³/min, and a production recovery to 5000 t/d, shortening the recovery cycle by 50%.

[0002] Blast furnace start-up is a key link in the smelting process, involving complex physical and chemical reactions and thermodynamic equilibrium. The traditional start-up method has the following problems: Insufficient heat reserve of the hearth: canceling the addition of bottom coke leads to insufficient initial heat of the hearth, the physical temperature (PT) of the molten iron is lower than 1400℃, and the silicon content (Si) decreases significantly (such as Si of the first furnace is only 4.0%, PT 1387℃).
[0003] Poor stability of the furnace condition: the pressure difference is as high as 175kPa (normal ≤165kPa), the permeability index K value is more than 5.5, the suspension and collapse of materials occur frequently, and the air volume is difficult to increase to more than 4200m 3 / min.
[0004] Low efficiency of the cooling system: improper control of the soft water flow and temperature, frequent shedding of the slag skin, increased heat loss, and coal gas utilization rate of only 38-42%.
[0005] Hearth accumulation: the porosity of the dead material column is only 24-26% (normal 32-35%), the liquid permeability index is 0.28-0.32 (normal 0.45-0.55), and the accumulation of unburned coal powder aggravates the size of the central dead material column.
[0006] In view of the above problems, the present application proposes a middle adjustment method, which realizes the rapid and smooth operation of the blast furnace start-up and efficient production through dynamic adjustment of the soft water flow, temperature and coordinated optimization with the tuyere configuration.

[0009] Further, the soft water flow in step S1 is reduced by 10-12%.
[0010] Further, in step S2, the soft water temperature is raised at a rate of ≤2℃ / h, and the heat flux density is stabilized at 12-15 kW / m 2 .

[0013] Further, in step S2, the number of partitions is 4, and each zone includes 7-8 tuyeres.
