Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention pertains to blast furnace ironmaking technology and relates to a method for calculating unburned pulverized coal in a blast furnace, particularly a method for calculating unburned pulverized coal injected into a blast furnace. Background Technology
[0002] At present, pulverized coal injection technology for blast furnaces has been widely used. After the pulverized coal enters the blast furnace, it will first burn at the tuyere. The remaining part will rise with the gas. During its ascent, most of it will react with CO2 in the gas to generate CO, and then participate in the reduction reaction of oxides. The other unreacted part will enter the gas ash at the top of the furnace with the gas, or adhere to the furnace charge to participate in the reaction or enter the slag.
[0003] Currently, it is difficult to directly distinguish the carbon introduced by coke powder and unburned coal powder in gas ash and blast furnace slag. The main methods used are microscopic component analysis, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Microscopic component analysis is highly subjective, with different researchers using different formulas, and there is no universally accepted standard formula. Furthermore, sample inhomogeneity has a significant impact on the results, leading to large fluctuations in the calculated results. Raman spectroscopy can only semi-quantitatively determine the trend of coal powder utilization under different blast furnace operating conditions, but it cannot quantitatively calculate the coal powder utilization rate. X-ray diffraction is more scientific, but it is highly dependent on the selection of standard samples. When the coal type, coke blending structure, etc., change in on-site production, the selection of standard samples becomes difficult, and the determination of the average stacking thickness Lc value of standard samples is costly and difficult.
[0004] Therefore, finding a more accurate method for calculating unburned pulverized coal in blast furnaces and solving the aforementioned technical problems in existing calculation methods has become one of the urgent issues for many front-line researchers and blast furnace smelting enterprises in the industry.

[0031] This invention provides a method for calculating unburned pulverized coal injected into a blast furnace, comprising the following steps:
[0032] 1) Elemental analysis was performed on the pulverized coal samples used in the blast furnace to obtain the contents of five elements: C, H, O, N, and S.
[0033] 2) Under oxygen atmosphere, the pulverized coal sample is subjected to combustion reaction at high temperature.

Combined with the elemental analysis results in step 1), the combustion rate η of the pulverized coal is calculated.
[0040] This invention involves filling the equipment with oxygen and then using the pressure difference to send pulverized coal into a high-temperature furnace preheated with oxygen, where it falls freely. The combustion rate of the pulverized coal is measured during this time. The specific steps are as follows: first, oxygen is introduced, then a solenoid valve is used to isolate the sample, creating a pressure difference before and after the sample. Once the test begins, the solenoid valve opens, and the pressure difference propels the pulverized coal sample to the upper part of the high-temperature furnace. The pulverized coal then falls freely. The pressure is typically around 0.4 MPa in the high-pressure section and around 0.2 MPa in the low-pressure section. The reaction time is mainly the time it takes for the pulverized coal to fall freely, while the pressure primarily serves to deliver it to the upper part of the high-temperature furnace.
[0041] In this invention, the purity of the oxygen is preferably greater than or equal to 99.2%, greater than or equal to 99.3%, and greater than or equal to 99.4%.
[0042] In this invention, the preferred temperature for the combustion reaction is the blast furnace blast temperature, which can be 1200~1250℃, specifically 1200℃. In this invention, the actual blast furnace blast temperature can be used as the reaction temperature.

[0048] In this invention, the process of determining the reactivity of pulverized coal with CO2 preferably includes the following steps:
[0049] Under a protective atmosphere, the pulverized coal sample was heated until it reached a constant weight m1, and then heated to the experimental temperature. The protective atmosphere was then replaced with a mixture of CO2 and CO, and the temperature was maintained until it reached a constant weight m2.
[0050] In this invention, the heating temperature is preferably 850~950℃, more preferably 870~930℃, even more preferably 890~910℃, and specifically 900℃.
[0051] In this invention, the experimental temperature is preferably the blast furnace blast temperature. The actual blast furnace blast temperature can be used as the reaction temperature. Generally, the blast temperature is below 1200℃, 1200~1250℃ is conventional, and it can reach above 1250℃. Adjustments can be made according to the specific process conditions.
[0052] In this invention, an inert gas is introduced to remove volatiles from pulverized coal. The reaction temperature is the blast furnace temperature, which can be determined based on the actual blast furnace temperature conditions. Here, blast furnace temperature refers to the temperature of the hot air, specifically the temperature of the heated or oxygen-enriched air inside the hot blast stove.
[0053] In this invention, in the mixed atmosphere, preferably by volume, CO2:CO = blast furnace gas utilization rate: (100% - blast furnace gas utilization rate). Here, blast furnace gas utilization rate is a well-known technical parameter for blast furnaces, calculated based on the actual composition of the blast furnace top gas, and is a common algorithm in the field, though it varies depending on the specific blast furnace.
[0054] Finally, this invention compares the pulverized coal combustion rate η and the pulverized coal reactivity CRI with CO2 obtained from the above steps. coal After recalculation, the unburned pulverized coal ratio WR of the pulverized coal injection was obtained. coal .
[0055] In this invention, the preferred formula for calculation in step 3) is CRI. coal = (m1-m2) / m1×100%.
[0056] In this invention, the formula for the recalculation is preferably:
[0057] Unburned coal powder ratio WR coal = (100% - η) × (100% - CRI) coal );

[0060] To complete and refine the overall technical solution and better ensure the accuracy and stability of the calculation method for unburned pulverized coal injected into the blast furnace, the above-mentioned calculation method for unburned pulverized coal injected into the blast furnace may specifically include the following steps:
[0061] S1: Dry the pulverized coal, reduce its volume to obtain multiple samples for testing experiments, and keep them for future use.
[0062] S2: Take a sample of pulverized coal and use an organic element analyzer to determine the content of five elements, C, H, O, N and S, in the pulverized coal.
[0063] S3: Take a sample of pulverized coal and conduct a pulverized coal combustion rate experiment. During the experiment, adjust the combustion temperature as needed. The combustion rate is measured in an atmosphere with an O2 content ≥ 99.2% (since the combustion speed of pulverized coal is much greater than that of coke, the combustion reaction of pulverized coal at the tuyeres is less than one second, which can be considered instantaneous. Although the oxygen content in the blast furnace tuyeres is generally less than 30%, the amount of oxygen is sufficient for the pulverized coal to burn completely. From the perspective of reaction time and oxygen content, the combustion reaction of pulverized coal has good reaction conditions. Therefore, an excess of pure oxygen is used in the measurement, and the experiment is conducted by using pure oxygen flow to assist the pulverized coal through the high-temperature zone using pressure difference, in order to simulate the conditions of sufficient oxygen and short reaction time in the blast furnace). After the reaction is completed, collect the gas after the reaction into the gas collecting bottle and close the gas collecting bottle valve to prevent oxygen pollution in the reactor. Analyze the CO, CO2, O2, and N2 contents in the gas collecting bottle. Combined with the results of the organic element analysis of pulverized coal, calculate the pulverized coal combustion rate. Repeat the pulverized coal combustion rate experiment ≥ 10 times to obtain the average pulverized coal combustion rate.
[0064] S4: Take a sample of pulverized coal and use a thermogravimetric analyzer to determine the reactivity of pulverized coal with CO2. First, heat the sample under an inert atmosphere until the pulverized coal evaporates its moisture and volatiles (the volatiles and moisture evaporate during the combustion process at the tuyeres; the pulverized coal in step S3 has also evaporated its volatiles and moisture after drying and combustion, so this step measures the reactivity of pulverized coal without volatiles and moisture with CO2). After maintaining a constant weight, record the mass of the pulverized coal as m1. Then heat the sample to the experimental temperature (which can be set according to experimental requirements or with reference to the on-site blast temperature). After the temperature stabilizes, switch the inert gas to an experimental atmosphere of CO2: CO = blast furnace gas utilization rate: (100% - blast furnace gas utilization rate). Maintain the temperature until the mass of the pulverized coal is constant, and record the mass of the pulverized coal as m2. Calculate the CRI (reactivity ratio) of the pulverized coal with CO2. coal = (m1-m2) / m1×100%;
