Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flue gas recycling treatment technology for copper pyrometallurgical furnaces, specifically a dust-free closed-loop recycling system for flue gas from an Ausmelt furnace throughout the entire process. Background Technology

[0002] The Austro-Met furnace (AMS) smelting method is one of the main methods for copper smelting. The Austro-Met furnace uses a charging system to add a mixture of copper concentrate, flux, and lump coal from the top. Oxygen, air, and pulverized coal, necessary for copper concentrate smelting, are blown into the molten pool from the top through a lance. Near the lance nozzle, the concentrate reacts violently with the smelt, providing heat and continuously agitating the pool. The concentrate rapidly completes the melting, oxidation, and desulfurization processes, producing matte, slag, and high-temperature flue gas. The high-temperature flue gas rises through the flue into the boiler for cooling, then enters an electrostatic precipitator for further cooling and dust collection, and is finally transported to the acid production system for acid production. The high-temperature flue gas from the Australian furnace rises from the furnace, while the copper concentrate and other materials fed into the furnace fall from the top. The materials and flue gas move towards each other, resulting in the flue gas being mixed with a large number of concentrate particles, copper matte, and high-temperature melt particles of slag. This high-dust-content flue gas is cooled and settled by the boiler, with large dust particles settling at the boiler end. The relatively clean high-temperature flue gas enters the electrostatic precipitator and high-efficiency dust collector to further remove the dust from the flue gas, reducing the dust concentration in the flue gas to 350 mg / Nm³.

[0003] In traditional processes, electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) consist of four electric fields. With a designed concentrate processing capacity of 180 t / h at the auger furnace, the ESPs collect approximately 50 tons of flue dust daily from these four fields. Fields #1 and #2 collect about 30 tons daily, while fields #3 and #4 collect about 20 tons daily. This flue dust is transported by compressed air to different baghouse dust collectors. Flue dust from fields #3 and #4 is sold directly, while flue dust from fields #1 and #2 is conveyed by screw conveyors to the concentrate silo for recycling. After entering the concentrate silo, the flue dust is mixed with other copper concentrates using a trolley and then transported back to the auger furnace via belt conveyor. The process of directly conveying the flue dust from fields #1 and #2 to the concentrate silo after collection by baghouse dust collectors and screw conveyors generates significant dust pollution due to the dryness and small particle size of the flue dust, severely deteriorating the concentrate silo environment. The mixing of the returned flue dust with the concentrate also generates substantial dust pollution, further worsening the environment and causing metal loss. To address the aforementioned issues, a closed-loop, dust-free recycling system for the entire process of flue gas from the Ausmelt smelting furnace is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above problems by providing a dust-free closed-loop circulation treatment system for flue gas from the Ausmelt smelting furnace throughout the entire process.

The lower ends of electric fields three and four are connected to a bag filter one via an ash conveying flue, the bag filter one being used to collect the flue gas from electric fields three and four; the lower ends of electric fields one and two are connected to an ash recycling mechanism via the ash conveying flue, the ash recycling mechanism comprising:

[0006] Baghouse dust collector 2, wherein the baghouse dust collector 2 is connected to the lower ends of electric field 1 and electric field 2 through a ash conveying flue;

[0007] A screw conveyor, one end of which is connected to the bottom of a bag filter and the other end of which is connected to a flue dust granulator. The flue dust granulator is used to process the flue dust conveyed by the screw conveyor into granules.

[0008] A closed conveying device, one end of which is connected to a fly ash granulator, and the other end of which is connected to the furnace body via a hopper.

[0009] Furthermore, the enclosed conveyor equipment includes: a belt conveyor, the belt conveyor being equipped with a sealing cover, the sealing cover being used to cover the belt conveyor.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes: a bag filter dust collector three, one side of which is connected to the sealing cover through a dust collection pipe for collecting the dust generated by the belt conveyor during transportation; the other side of the bag filter dust collector three is also provided with a dust collection pipe, and the other end of the dust collection pipe is provided with a dust collection cover, which is located above the ash granulator for collecting the dust generated when the ash granulator is working.

[0012] Furthermore, the particles produced by the ash pelletizer are 5 to 10 millimeters in size.

[0013] Furthermore, the feeding hopper is a conical hopper.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: The utility model has a simple structure and is easy to operate. The flue dust from the No. 1 and No. 2 electric fields is collected by a bag dust collector and then directly conveyed to the concentrate silo using a screw conveyor. In this process, the flue dust is granulated by the flue dust granulator, which greatly reduces the dust generated during the transportation of the flue dust. The flue dust is then transported back to the furnace for secondary utilization through a closed conveying device. The addition of a bag dust collector at the closed conveying device and the flue dust granulator can greatly improve the dust removal efficiency, extend the service life of the equipment, make the equipment less prone to damage, and protect the working environment.
