The hot air exhausted from the air-cooling jackets on the south and north sides (or after heat exchange through the heat exchanger) is discharged outside, and the hot air exhausted from the air-cooling jackets on the east and west sides enters the reduction furnace as secondary air.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] In order to solve the problem of exhausting flue gas containing dust and sulfur dioxide during the slag discharge process of the bottom blowing furnace, which pollutes the environment, the following implementation plan is provided:
[0030] A reduction furnace air cooling system, as shown in the attached Figure 1 As shown, it includes an annular air duct 1 arranged outside the reduction furnace, and the annular air duct 1 is divided into an east side air duct 1.1, a south side air duct 1.2, a west side air duct 1.3 and a north side air duct 1.4 by four blind plates 3, wherein:
[0031] The east side air duct 1.1 is connected with the west side air duct 1.3 via the first connecting air duct 4;
[0032] The south side air duct 1.2 is connected with the north side air duct 1.4 via a second connecting air duct 5;
[0033] The two fans 2 are respectively the first fan 2.1 and the second fan 2.2. The air outlet of the first fan 2.1 is connected to the east side air duct 1.2, and the air inlet is connected to the dust collecting hood arranged at the slag discharge port of the bottom blowing furnace through the first induced draft duct 6. The first induced draft duct 6 is provided with a first dust collector 7; the air outlet of the second fan 2.2 is connected to the second connecting air duct 5.
[0034] In this embodiment, the first fan can filter the flue gas discharged from the slag discharge port of the bottom blowing furnace and send it to the air cooling jackets on the east and west sides of the reduction furnace, take away part of the heat of the reduction furnace and send it into the reduction furnace as secondary air. The sulfur dioxide in the flue gas is discharged to the tail gas treatment system along with the flue gas of the reduction furnace for treatment, solving the problem of the flue gas flashing during the bottom blowing furnace slag discharge polluting the environment. The air cooling jackets on the south and north sides of the reduction furnace are provided with cold sources by the second fan drawing cold air from the outside.
[0035] Implementation II
[0036] In order to solve the dust problem when loading the bottom blowing furnace, the following implementation plan is provided:
[0037] As attached Figure 1 As shown, based on the first embodiment, the air inlet of the second fan 2.2 of this embodiment is connected to the dust collecting hood arranged in the loading area of the bottom blowing furnace through the second air duct 8, and the second air duct 8 is provided with a second dust collector 9.
[0038] This embodiment can utilize the second fan to filter the dust generated in the loading area of the bottom blowing furnace and send it into the air cooling jackets on the south and north sides, taking away part of the heat from the reduction furnace and then directly discharging it to the outside or discharging it to the outside after heat exchange through a heat exchanger, thus solving the problem of dust pollution in the loading area of the bottom blowing furnace.
[0039] Embodiment 3
[0040] As attached Figure 1 As shown, based on the second embodiment, this embodiment further provides a third connecting air duct 10 between the first air duct 6 and the second air duct 8, and the first air duct 6 and the third connecting air duct 10 are provided with a first electric butterfly valve 11 and a second electric butterfly valve 12 respectively.
[0041] This embodiment can also realize that the dust generated in the feeding area of the bottom blowing furnace is sent to the air cooling jackets on the east and west sides of the reduction furnace after filtering by the first fan through the control of the first electric butterfly valve and the second electric butterfly valve, and then sent into the reduction furnace as secondary air after taking away part of the heat of the reduction furnace. In specific implementation, when the bottom blowing furnace does not have slag discharge, the first electric butterfly valve can be controlled to close and the second electric butterfly valve can be controlled to open. At this time, the dust suction capacity of the feeding area of the bottom blowing furnace will be greatly improved, thereby improving the dust suction effect; and when the bottom blowing furnace needs to discharge slag, the first electric butterfly valve is opened and the second electric butterfly valve is closed, and the smoke escaping from the slag discharge is normally extracted.
[0042] Embodiment 4

[0044] The design of this embodiment can also meet the requirement that one of the fans is damaged, and one fan can provide cold source air to multiple groups of air-cooling jackets on the east, south, west and north sides. However, when discharging slag, the first electric butterfly valve needs to be closed to prevent smoke from being discharged from the air-cooling jackets on the south and north sides and polluting the air.
[0045] Preferably, the first dust collector 7 and the second dust collector 9 described in the above embodiments are both cartridge dust collectors or bag dust collectors.
[0046] The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
