Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lining for use in blast furnaces as used in power stations and the like having an interior surface which can come into contact with slag particles as well as an insulating layer consisting of an inorganic insulation material which surrounds the blast furnace lining.
  • the invention also relates to a lining for use in blast furnaces for power stations and the like, especially blast furnaces using fuels of biological origin.
  • lining for use in blast furnaces shall be construed as meaning that the lining is arranged in the area of the furnace where the mineral part of the fuel in the shape of furnace slag particles falls towards the bottom of the oven.
  • the bottom of the oven will normally consist of a water filled bath.
  • the slag particles are removed by a slag removing device, which will continuously remove the instantly cooled particles which have fallen into the water.
  • the use of insulation is effected in order to bring down the temperature on the outside of the furnace, the side which is turned towards the surroundings where people can come into contact with the construction.
  • the surface temperature of the side of the construction which people can come into contact with is usually set to be a maximum of 65° C. warm. This is the safety value which has been chosen in order for people working in the vicinity of blast furnaces and the like not to get burnt, if they accidentally should touch the surface of the oven.
  • EP-A-672880 a lining for a blast furnace is disclosed.
  • the lining comprises three distinct layers.
  • An innermost layer consisting of ceramic tiles, an intermediate layer comprising insulating bricks and an outer layer in the shape of a cladding.
  • a metal furnace made up from a mould of steel, wherein is cast a thermal insulating layer made from a hardening stone forming agent, based mainly on silica and alumina with an added foaming agent containing hydrogen peroxide as blowing agent.
  • the interior wall which is to come into contact with the molten metals is made from a heat treated refractory concrete.
  • the furnace is closed with access lids made from the insulating inorganic foam insulating material cast in steel moulds.
  • the slag particles resulting from the burning of coal are characteristic in that they are acidic. Therefore certain types of steel have been developed which have been modified in order to endure the influence from acidic slag particles at the high temperatures which arise in blast furnaces, typically in the order of 350° C.-400° C.
  • the blast furnace wall will consist as described above of a interior steel lining having an insulation outside the steel layer.
  • the insulation is a mineral or glass wool, which consists of minuscule inorganic fibres kept together by a carbolic acid.
  • carbolic acid will disintegrate and evaporate and minuscule vibrations will cause the fibre structure without the binder to collapse which will cause the fibres to be rattled loose and gather in cavities. This leaves uninsulated cavities in the blast furnace wall.
  • the insulating characteristics of this part of the wall will be greatly reduced in relation to the theoretic insulation at which the wall was designed had the insulation material, for example the mineral or glass wool, had its fibres in the theoretically manufactured arrangement.
  • the interior surface of the lining is resistant against slag particles with a high alkalinity and will in itself be able to withstand alkalinic slag particles at the temperatures which are occurring in blast furnaces of this type.
  • a lining comprising an insulation which comprises one or more layers of a cement based foam.
  • the lining is distinguished in that the interior surface is made from a ceramic or semi-ceramic material and that an insulation in the form of one or more layers of a cement based foam is provided.
  • the foam is placed between the interior surface of the blast furnace and the load carrying construction, which is arranged around the blast furnace.
  • the invention hereby provides a novel insulation of the type which does not collapse and which is easy to place and which will not let respirable fibres loose in the environment.
  • an interior surface in the blast furnace of a ceramic or semi-ceramic material which will be able to resist the influence of alkalinic slag particles and temperatures, which are occurring in blast furnaces of this type which are fed by bio fuels, set temperatures being at least 350° C. to 400° C. and up to about 1100° C. to 1200° C.
  • a concrete like material can advantageously be used.
  • a cement which can endure high temperatures for example an aluminous cement is used and preferable a compact binder is used.
  • the compact binder can be achieved by an intimate composition of particles from an aluminous cement with ultra fine inorganic particles, for example from an amorphous silica, for example the kind of silicium which is used in the production process of silicone metals.
  • One example of the insulation foam which in an economic way gives technically and environmental advantages is the use of a foam called Cemskum, sold by Cemsystems I/S.
  • the foam can be foamed in situ between the interior surface and the exterior load carrying construction.
  • the interior ceramic or semi-ceramic surface can advantageously be made from a concrete like material where there during the manufacturing process is used a cement which can endure high temperatures, for example an aluminous cement.
  • compact binders are used, which are achieved by an intimate composition of particles of a aluminous cement with ultra fine inorganic particles, for example from an amorphous silicium, for example a silica which is manufactured by producing a silicone metal.
  • ultra fine inorganic particles for example from an amorphous silicium, for example a silica which is manufactured by producing a silicone metal.

  • FIG. 3 shows the other end wall of the blast furnace
  • FIG. 4 shows the principle in the construction of an element having an interior surface
  • FIG. 5 shows the principle in the construction of another element for an interior surface.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a first wall 1 , respectively a second wall 2 , in the blast furnace interior seen from the inside. It is illustrated that there is used premanufactured elements 3 , 4 of which four are equipped with recesses 5 for arrangement of nozzles 6 (see FIG. 2) for injection of cooling water which will cause disintegration and instant cooling of larger slag particles.
  • the premanufactured elements 3 , 4 are mounted on fixtures (not shown) which are fastened to the exterior load carrying steel or reinforced concrete construction.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates one end wall 7 and cuts through the walls 1 , 2 .
  • FIG. 3 shows the other end wall 8 and a cut through the walls 1 , 2 .
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 the construction is illustrated in which is used an interior lining of premanufactured elements 3 , 4 and an intermediate insulating layer 9 where this is geometrically possible and technically necessary which is above, a water bath 10 equipped with means 11 for removing slag particles from the bottom of said water bath 10 .
  • FIG. 4 The principle of the construction of a plain element 3 is illustrated in FIG. 4. This element is intended for being built in at the interior surface of the blast furnace. A position for the element 3 is illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 5 The principle of making a more complicated interior lining element 12 is illustrated in FIG. 5.
  • This element 12 is intended for being mounted on the interior surface of the blast furnace.
  • a position for the element 12 is illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • the interior ceramic or semi-ceramic surface is equipped with an arrangement of 30 mm thick pre-manufactured plate elements 3 , 4 , 12 which are equipped with cylindrical welding bushings 13 with a perforation 14 , which facilitates that the plate elements 3 , 4 , 12 can be welded on to load bearing elements (not shown) which also have the additional function as being distance keepers.
  • the distance keepers maintain the distance between the surrounding load carrying support construction, for example a steel construction or a reinforced concrete construction and inwards towards the interior of the blast furnace.
  • the cylindrical welding bushings 13 are welded on to a net 15 of stainless steel rods 16 which constitute the primary reinforcement in the elements 3 , 4 , 12 .
  • the elements are made of a steel fibre reinforced abrasion resistant and high temperature stabile material 17 which is cast at room temperature and also hardened at room temperature.
  • the material 17 consists of 1 ⁇ 3 by weight of pulverised bauxite with a grain size in the interval from 1 mm-3 mm, 1 ⁇ 3 part by weight of ground bauxite with a grain size in the interval from 0 mm-1 mm and 1 ⁇ 3 part by weight of Cemsystems' binder AL6310.
  • a water content equal to about 20% by weight of the amount of binder.
  • the high temperature stable and stainless steel fibres have been added in an amount of 3% by weight of the binder and in one example is of the type sold by the name Densit Stahl Faser, 1.4841 with dimensions diameter 0.40 mm, length 12.5 mm.
  • Casting of the elements is done by vibrating the casting material in steel moulds. Immediately after casting the material in the steel moulds a curing compound has been applied to all free surfaces. The newly cast material with the applied curing compound has then been left for hardening in the steel mould. The following day the elements has been demoulded and the element has thereafter been left for hardening until mounting.
  • the thermal insulation used in the example is manufactured in situ by Cemskum which is described in a brochure for Cemskum, type RC2-0TS/I40-TAR5.
  • Cemskum which is described in a brochure for Cemskum, type RC2-0TS/I40-TAR5.
  • the foam material is mixed and by a standard pump pumped into the space between the premanufactured elements and the outer load carrying construction. Pumping of the material can take place by a relatively simple pump means.
