Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of rolling steel processing, and particularly to a waste heat coupling recovery system for a rolling steel cooling bed and a heating furnace. Background Art

[0002] In the hot rolling production process of iron and steel enterprises, steel billets need to be heated to a high temperature of 1100 - 1250 °C, then rolled through multiple passes, and finally cooled after rolling to obtain finished products. During the cooling process of the rolled pieces, natural cooling is usually carried out on the cooling bed, so that the temperature of the rolled pieces drops from 800 - 950 °C before cooling to about 100 °C when leaving the cooling bed. Therefore, a large amount of heat is usually lost, which not only causes waste of energy but also causes thermal pollution and deteriorates the working environment of the workshop.

However, the utilization rate of the waste heat of the rolling steel production system by this device is low, and the heat exchange equipment is also easily corroded by dissolved oxygen and other gases in the water.

However, similarly, the utilization rate of the waste heat of the rolling steel production system by this device is low, and the heat exchange equipment is also easily corroded by dissolved oxygen and other gases in the water.
