The invention discloses a
smelting method of cold
direct reduced iron in a Consteel electric furnace, belonging to the technical field of electric furnace
steelmaking. The
smelting method comprises the following steps: at the beginning of
smelting, low-grade power supply is adopted, and at the same time of power-on,
oxygen lances and carbon lances on the furnace wall are used to blow
oxygen and spray carbon to produce foamed
slag for submerged arc. After 1-3 minutes,
scrap steel is continuously added by the Consteel
system, and cold
direct reduced iron is added through the fifth hole of the electric furnace. The
molten steel in the furnace is heated by the
electric arc, and the
molten steel melts the
metal materials in the furnace; during the whole
smelting process,
lime and light burned
dolomite are added in batches. The addition amount of
lime is 30-50 kg / t of steel, and the addition amount of light burned
dolomite is 25-30 kg / t of steel. The invention helps to maintain the whole-process flat bath smelting, reduce the
power consumption of electric furnace smelting, and reduce the smelting cost; it provides a technical solution for a short-process demonstration
plant for the efficient use of
direct reduced iron in an electric furnace, filling the domestic technical research gap in the short-
process industry of
electric furnaces.
