Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of HyCROF smelting technology, and in particular to a method for multi-media matching and stable operation control in a HyCROF furnace. Background Technology
[0002] HyCROF smelting technology represents a significant development direction for efficient ironmaking processes. Its core advantage lies in the synergistic participation of multiple media, including nitrogen, hydrogen, CO, and pulverized coal, in redox reactions, thereby improving ironmaking efficiency and optimizing energy consumption. However, in practical industrial applications, this technology suffers from a lack of scientific standards for controlling the proportions of these multiple media, leading to a series of technical bottlenecks. 1. The mechanism of nitrogen action is not clear and there is a lack of quantitative nitrogen standards. Excessive nitrogen will inhibit the efficiency of the reduction reaction, while insufficient nitrogen will not be able to ensure the stability of the furnace pressure, resulting in fluctuations in system operation. 2. There is no precise matching basis for the dosage of each medium, the synergistic effect of hydrogen and CO reduction is not fully utilized, the coal powder combustion efficiency does not match the reduction reaction requirements, resulting in energy waste and low reaction efficiency. 3. There is a lack of systematic research on the replacement ratio among pulverized coal, CO, and H2, resulting in high media consumption costs and an inability to dynamically adjust the replacement ratio according to furnace conditions; 4. Imbalance in the proportion of multiple media leads to insufficient oxidation-reduction reaction, uneven distribution of temperature and concentration fields in the furnace, resulting in furnace condition fluctuations, unstable molten iron quality, and in severe cases, abnormal conditions such as material suspension and material collapse.
[0003] The aforementioned problems are interconnected and form a vicious cycle, severely restricting the stable operation and efficiency improvement of the HyCROF smelting system. Therefore, it is urgent to establish a scientific and precise multi-media matching control method, clarify the action mechanism of each medium, optimize the dosage ratio, determine the replacement ratio standard, and solve the defects of the existing technology. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for multi-media matching and stable operation control in a HyCROF furnace, so as to solve the problems of disordered multi-media ratio, unstable operation and high energy consumption in the prior art, and realize the efficient, stable and low-cost operation of the HyCROF smelting system.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the basic solution provided by this invention is: a method for multi-media matching and stable operation control in a HyCROF furnace, comprising the following steps: S1: Multi-media reaction mechanism system analysis: A multi-media reaction simulation platform was built in the HyCROF furnace to simulate the redox reactions of nitrogen, hydrogen, CO with iron ore at 1200-1500℃ and 0.3-0.6MPa. Changes in gas composition were monitored, and thermodynamic calculations were combined to clarify the patterns of hydrogen dominating reduction in the high-temperature region of 1350-1500℃, CO dominating reduction in the low-temperature region of 1200-1350℃, and nitrogen not participating in reduction but influencing the pressure field and gas velocity distribution within the furnace. A single-factor variable experiment for nitrogen was designed, with nitrogen concentration gradients of 0-500 Nm. 3 / h, with other medium parameters being hydrogen 100-150Nm 3 / h, CO200-250Nm 3 / h, pulverized coal injection rate 50-80kg / t iron, monitor furnace pressure, reduction efficiency, and changes in molten iron composition to determine the critical threshold for nitrogen action; S2: Establishment of Nitrogen Allocation Standards: Based on the S1 experimental data, combined with the furnace pressure control requirement of 0.4-0.5 MPa and the efficiency target of ≥95% reduction, a multi-objective optimization algorithm was used to establish a nitrogen allocation correlation model: Where N2 is the amount of nitrogen supplied (Nm 3 / h), where P is the target pressure inside the furnace (MPa). To determine the reduction efficiency (%), the dynamic adjustment range of nitrogen dosage was determined, a standard operating procedure for nitrogen dosage was established, and the initial set value, dynamic adjustment trigger conditions, adjustment range, and monitoring frequency of once every 15 minutes were clarified. S3: Determination of optimal dosage for each medium: An orthogonal experimental design was adopted, selecting nitrogen dosages of 150, 200, 250, and 300 Nm³. 3 / h, hydrogen 100, 120, 140, 160 Nm 3 / h, CO 200, 220, 240, 260Nm 3 Using the pulverized coal injection rate of 50, 60, 70, and 80 kg / t iron as experimental factors, and reduction efficiency, molten iron quality, and energy consumption as evaluation indicators, 16 orthogonal experiments were designed. Industrial tests were conducted, and the influence weights of each factor were determined through range and variance analysis. The optimal dosage range of each medium was determined by combining a multi-objective optimization model, and a dynamic adjustment model for the dosage of the medium based on changes in raw material composition and furnace temperature was established. S4: Study on the replacement ratio of pulverized coal, CO, and H2: With a fixed reduction efficiency ≥95% and molten iron quality standard, single-medium replacement tests were conducted for CO replacing pulverized coal, H2 replacing pulverized coal, and H2 replacing CO, respectively. The media increment when the reduction efficiency stabilized was recorded, and the baseline replacement ratio between each medium was calculated. Replacement ratio tests were carried out under different furnace conditions, and the CO to pulverized coal replacement ratio of 4-5 Nm was determined through statistical analysis. 3 / kg, H2 to pulverized coal replacement ratio 2-3Nm 3 / kg, H2 to CO replacement ratio 0.5-0.6 Nm 3 / Nm 3 Establish a dynamic correction model for the replacement ratio that takes into account the cost of the medium and the furnace condition parameters; S5: Technical Standards and Operating Procedures Development: Integrate the research results of S2-S4, develop the "HyCROF In-furnace Multi-media Matching Technical Standard", compile operating procedures including initial setting of media usage, dynamic adjustment, replacement operation, and abnormal handling, and establish a quality traceability system; S6: System Validation and Optimization: Conduct 3 months of industrial application validation in the 2500HyCROF smelting system, monitor reduction efficiency, molten iron quality, media consumption, and furnace stability indicators, and revise and optimize nitrogen standard, optimal media dosage, and replacement ratio model based on validation data, and establish a continuous improvement mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, the optimal dosage range for each medium mentioned in S3 is: nitrogen 180-250 Nm³. 3 / h, corresponding to an internal furnace pressure of 0.42-0.48MPa; hydrogen 120-150Nm 3 / h, corresponding to a reduction efficiency of ≥96% in the high-temperature zone; CO2 20-250Nm 3 / h, corresponding to a reduction efficiency of ≥94% in the medium and low temperature zone; pulverized coal injection rate of 60-75kg / t iron, corresponding to a coal ratio of ≤70kg / t iron.
[0008] Furthermore, the adjustment rule of the dynamic adjustment model for the amount of medium used described in S3 is as follows: when the TFe content of iron ore decreases by 1%, the amount of hydrogen used increases by 5 Nm. 3 / h, increase pulverized coal injection rate by 3 kg / t iron; when the furnace temperature rises by 50℃, reduce CO dosage by 10 Nm 3 / h, nitrogen usage increased by 20 Nm 3 / h.
[0009] Furthermore, the adjustment rules of the replacement ratio dynamic correction model described in S4 are as follows: when the price of pulverized coal increases by 10%, the replacement ratio is increased by 5% and the substitution ratio of CO and H2 is increased; when the furnace temperature is below 1300℃, the replacement ratio is increased by 8% and the proportion of H2 replacing CO is increased.
[0010] Furthermore, the continuous improvement mechanism described in S6 involves regularly collecting production data and dynamically updating the "HyCROF In-furnace Multi-media Matching Technology Standard" and operating procedures in conjunction with technological advancements and changes in raw material composition.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are: 1.

A single-factor variable experiment for nitrogen was designed, with nitrogen concentration gradients of 0-500 Nm. 3 / h, with other medium parameters being hydrogen 100-150Nm 3 / h, CO200-250Nm 3 / h, pulverized coal injection rate 50-80kg / t iron, monitor furnace pressure, reduction efficiency, and changes in molten iron composition to determine the critical threshold for nitrogen action; S2: Establishment of Nitrogen Allocation Standards: Based on the S1 experimental data, combined with the furnace pressure control requirement of 0.4-0.5 MPa and the efficiency target of ≥95% reduction, a multi-objective optimization algorithm was used to establish a nitrogen allocation correlation model: Where N2 is the amount of nitrogen supplied (Nm 3 / h), where P is the target pressure inside the furnace (MPa). To determine the reduction efficiency (%), the dynamic adjustment range of nitrogen dosage was established, and a standard operating procedure for nitrogen dosage was set, specifying the initial set value, dynamic adjustment trigger conditions, adjustment range, and monitoring frequency every 15 minutes. A method for multi-media matching and stable operation control in a HyCROF furnace was proposed, with the nitrogen dosage dynamically adjusted within the range of 150-300 Nm³ under normal furnace conditions. 3 / h; when the furnace pressure is below 0.4MPa, use 50Nm 3 The nitrogen concentration is increased gradually in a gradient of / h, but should not exceed 400 Nm. 3 / h; when the reduction efficiency is less than 90%, use 30Nm 3 The nitrogen content should be gradually reduced in a gradient of / h, with a minimum of 80 Nm. 3 / h; the dynamic adjustment trigger conditions are pressure fluctuation ±0.02MPa and reduction efficiency fluctuation ±2%; S3: Determination of optimal dosage for each medium: An orthogonal experimental design was adopted, selecting nitrogen dosages of 150, 200, 250, and 300 Nm³. 3 / h, hydrogen 100, 120, 140, 160 Nm 3 / h, CO 200, 220, 240, 260Nm 3Using the pulverized coal injection rate of 50, 60, 70, and 80 kg / t iron as experimental factors, and reduction efficiency, molten iron quality, and energy consumption as evaluation indicators, 16 orthogonal experiments were designed. Industrial trials were conducted, and the influence weights of each factor were determined through range and variance analysis. The optimal dosage range for each medium was determined using a multi-objective optimization model, and a dynamic adjustment model for medium dosage based on changes in raw material composition and furnace temperature was established. A method for multi-medium matching and stable operation control in a HyCROF furnace was developed, with the optimal dosage range for each medium being: nitrogen 180-250 Nm³. 3 / h, corresponding to an internal furnace pressure of 0.42-0.48MPa; hydrogen 120-150Nm 3 / h, corresponding to a reduction efficiency of ≥96% in the high-temperature zone; CO2 20-250Nm 3 / h, corresponding to a reduction efficiency ≥94% in the medium and low temperature zone; pulverized coal injection rate 60-75kg / t iron, corresponding to a coal ratio ≤70kg / t iron; the adjustment rule of the dynamic adjustment model of the medium usage in a HyCROF furnace multi-media matching and stable operation control method is: when the TFe content of iron ore decreases by 1%, the hydrogen usage increases by 5Nm 3 / h, increase pulverized coal injection rate by 3 kg / t iron; when the furnace temperature rises by 50℃, reduce CO dosage by 10 Nm 3 / h, nitrogen usage increased by 20 Nm 3 / h.
[0017] S4: Study on the replacement ratio of pulverized coal, CO, and H2: With a fixed reduction efficiency ≥95% and molten iron quality standard, single-medium replacement tests were conducted for CO replacing pulverized coal, H2 replacing pulverized coal, and H2 replacing CO, respectively. The media increment when the reduction efficiency stabilized was recorded, and the baseline replacement ratio between each medium was calculated. Replacement ratio tests were carried out under different furnace conditions, and the CO to pulverized coal replacement ratio of 4-5 Nm was determined through statistical analysis. 3 / kg, H2 to pulverized coal replacement ratio 2-3Nm 3 / kg, H2 to CO replacement ratio 0.5-0.6 Nm 3 / Nm 3 A dynamic correction model for the replacement ratio considering media costs and furnace condition parameters was established. The adjustment rule of the dynamic correction model for the replacement ratio of a HyCROF furnace multi-media matching and stable operation control method is as follows: when the price of pulverized coal increases by 10%, the replacement ratio is increased by 5% and the substitution ratio of CO and H2 is increased; when the furnace temperature is below 1300℃, the replacement ratio is increased by 8% and the proportion of H2 replacing CO is increased. S5: Technical Standards and Operating Procedures Development: Integrate the research results of S2-S4, develop the "HyCROF In-furnace Multi-media Matching Technical Standard", compile operating procedures including initial setting of media usage, dynamic adjustment, replacement operation, and abnormal handling, and establish a quality traceability system; S6: System Validation and Optimization: A 3-month industrial application validation was conducted in the 2500HyCROF smelting system, monitoring reduction efficiency, molten iron quality, media consumption, and furnace stability indicators. Based on the validation data, the nitrogen formulation standard, optimal media dosage, and replacement ratio model were revised and optimized to establish a continuous improvement mechanism. A continuous improvement mechanism for the HyCROF furnace multi-media matching and stable operation control method involves periodically collecting production data and dynamically updating the "HyCROF Furnace Multi-Media Matching Technology Standard" and operating procedures in conjunction with technological developments and changes in raw material composition.
[0018] The specific implementation plan for the above control method is as follows: 1. Multi-media interaction mechanism analysis experiment Monitoring points were set up in the lower part of the HyCROF furnace body (medium and low temperature zone 1200-1350℃) and the furnace belly (high temperature zone 1350-1500℃), and pressure sensors, temperature sensors and gas sampling devices were installed and connected to gas chromatograph and infrared spectrometer. The initial furnace pressure was set to 0.45MPa, the temperature to 1350℃, the iron ore loading was calculated based on the designed capacity of 5500t / d, and the coke loading was set based on a coke ratio of 350kg / t iron.
[0019] Nitrogen gas set at 200 Nm 3 / h, hydrogen 130Nm 3 / h、CO230Nm 3 With a coal powder injection rate of 65 kg / t iron, the smelting system was started and operated continuously for 4 hours. Gas samples were collected every 30 minutes to analyze the changes in gas concentration and calculate the reduction reaction rate.
[0020] Maintain hydrogen at 130 Nm 3 / h、CO230Nm 3 With the coal powder injection rate remaining constant at 65 kg / t iron, nitrogen dosages are set at 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, and 400 Nm³ respectively. 3 / h, each nitrogen dosage is run for 2 hours, and the furnace pressure, reduction efficiency and Si content of molten iron are monitored; the monitoring data are shown in Table 1.
[0021] Table 1: Monitoring Data Table The test results show that the nitrogen content is between 180-250 Nm³. 3 When the furnace pressure is constant at 0.42-0.48 MPa, the reduction efficiency is maintained at 94.9-95.8%, the molten iron quality is stable, and the positive effect of nitrogen is dominant.
[0022] 2. Establishment and Implementation of Nitrogen Standards Based on experimental data, the least squares method was used to fit the correlation model of nitrogen dosage. Substituting the target pressure of 0.42-0.48 MPa and the reduction efficiency of 94.9-95.8%, the calculated nitrogen dosage range is 180-250 Nm³. 3 / h.
[0023] Establish nitrogen standard: initial setting value 200 Nm 3 / h (corresponding to a pressure of 0.45MPa and a reduction efficiency of 95.5%); the adjustment trigger condition is that the furnace pressure fluctuation exceeds ±0.02MPa or the reduction efficiency fluctuation exceeds ±2%; the adjustment increment is 30Nm each time when the pressure is below 0.43MPa. 3 / h, when the pressure is higher than 0.47MPa, reduce by 30Nm each time. 3 / h, when the reduction efficiency is below 93.5%, decrease by 20Nm each time. 3 / h, with a reduction efficiency higher than 97.5%, each increment is 20 Nm 3 / h; The monitoring frequency is to record the furnace pressure and reduction efficiency every 15 minutes, and analyze the gas composition every hour.
[0024] After inputting the nitrogen standard parameters into the central control system and starting the automatic control program, when the furnace pressure drops to 0.42 MPa, the system automatically increases the nitrogen quantity by 30 Nm³. 3 / h to 230Nm 3 The system operates at a stable pressure of 0.45 MPa per hour; when the reduction efficiency drops to 93.4%, the system automatically reduces the nitrogen dosage by 20 Nm³. 3 / h to 180Nm 3 After the reduction efficiency recovered to 94.9% per hour, it stabilized.

Combined with multi-objective optimization, the optimal dosage range for each medium was determined: nitrogen 180-250 Nm³. 3 / h, hydrogen 120-150Nm 3 / h, CO2 20-250Nm 3 / h, 60-75kg / t iron pulverized coal.
[0028] Dynamic adjustment model verification: When the TFe content in iron ore decreases from 56% to 55%, the hydrogen consumption is adjusted to 135 Nm. 3 With a coal powder injection rate of 68 kg / t iron per hour, the reduction efficiency remained at 95.5% after operation, verifying the effectiveness of the model.
[0029] 4. Research and Application of Replacement Ratio CO and pulverized coal replacement test: maintain nitrogen at 200 Nm³ 3 / h, hydrogen 130Nm 3 / h remains unchanged, initial pulverized coal 65kg / t iron, CO2 30Nm 3 / h, reduction efficiency 95.5%; reduce pulverized coal to 60kg / t iron, increase CO to 250Nm 3 / h, reduction efficiency 95.3%, displacement ratio 4Nm 3 / kg; continue to reduce pulverized coal to 55kg / t iron, and increase CO to 275Nm 3 / h, reduction efficiency 95.1%, displacement ratio 5Nm 3 / kg, determine the CO to pulverized coal replacement ratio of 4-5 Nm 3 / kg.
