Abstract

This invention relates to the field of iron and steel metallurgy technology and provides a method for maintaining a converter furnace body, comprising: S1) in the converter blowing step, adding a temperature-raising agent according to the hot metal conditions and the amount of scrap steel added; the final lance position of the converter blowing is 1.2~1.3m, and the stirring time is ≥30s; S2) in the carbon removal step, controlling the final slag composition after the carbon removal blowing stops; S3) adjusting the slag according to the carbon content and oxygen content before tapping after the carbon removal is completed; S4) in the slag splashing protection step, determining the starting slag splashing lance position according to the bottom erosion of the converter furnace body or the final slag oxidation; controlling the slag splashing time to 2~4min; controlling the slag splashing rate to ≥90%; and controlling the slag retention rate to ≥90%. The converter furnace body maintenance method provided in this application, by controlling each step of the converter blowing, carbon removal, tapping, and slag splashing, ensures the service life of the converter furnace body refractory material, ensures the maximum bottom blowing gas flow, and achieves a good top and bottom combined blowing effect.
