Description

高炉操業方法 技術分野  Blast furnace operation method Technical field

本発明は、 高炉羽口(tuyere)から微粉炭 (pulverized coal)や合成樹脂材 (plastics)と、 天然ガス(natural gas)等メタン(methane)を主成分とする気体還 元材(gaseous reducing agent) を吹込む高炉操業方法に関する。 背景技術  The present invention is a gas reducing material mainly composed of pulverized coal, plastics, methane such as natural gas, etc. from blast furnace tuyere (tuyere). ) Blast furnace operation method. Background art

銑鉄 (pig iron)を製造する高炉で還元材として用いられるコータス(coke)は、 原料として高価な強粘結炭(coking coal)を必要とし、 またその製造設備であるコ 一クス炉(coke oven)の建設、 運転、 補修等の費用を必要とするため、 一般に高価 である。 このため高炉におけるコータスの使用量低減による銑鉄製造コス 卜の削 減が望まれている。  Coke used as a reducing material in a blast furnace that produces pig iron requires expensive coking coal as a raw material, and its production equipment is a coke oven. ) Is generally expensive because it requires construction, operation, and repair costs. For this reason, it is desired to reduce pig iron production costs by reducing the amount of coatas used in the blast furnace.

上記の目的を達成するため、 コータスに比較して安価な微粉炭の多量使用や、 廃棄物 (waste material)に含まれる合成樹脂材を高炉の還元材として使用するこ とが行われている。  In order to achieve the above objectives, a large amount of pulverized coal, which is less expensive than Cotas, is used, and synthetic resin materials contained in waste materials are used as reducing materials for blast furnaces.

しかし、 これら微粉炭や合成樹脂材等の固体状の還元材(以降、 固体還元材 (solid reducing agent) と称す)は一般に燃焼速度(burning velocity)力遅く、 未燃チヤ一(unburnt char)等の未燃物(unburnt content)が生成し、 粉として高炉 内に蓄積して高炉の安定操業を阻害するという問題があった。  However, solid reducing agents such as pulverized coal and synthetic resin materials (hereinafter referred to as solid reducing agents) are generally slow in burning velocity, unburnt char, etc. There is a problem that unburnt content of ash is generated and accumulates in the blast furnace as powder, impeding the stable operation of the blast furnace.

そこで着火(ignition) ·燃焼(combustion)の速い気体還元材を同時に吹込み、 前述の固体還元材の燃焼を促進する手段が提案されている。  Therefore, a means has been proposed for simultaneously injecting a gas reducing material having a fast ignition and combustion and promoting the combustion of the solid reducing material.

たとえば、 特公平 1— 2 9 8 4 7号公報には、 ブローパイプ (blow pipe)から供 給される熱風温度を 8 1 0 °C以上に調整し、 粉体燃料 (pulverized fuel) (近年、 高炉へ投入される石炭、 コークス類は鉄鉱石の還元剤としての役割を果たすこと から 「燃料」 から 「還元材」 と呼ぶようになつているため、 固体還元材と称す る。 ) を吹込み管と平行してガス燃料 (gaseous fuel) (前述の理由により、 以後 「気体還元材」 と称する。 ) 吹込み管を配設し、 固体還元材と気体還元材の混焼 (mixed combustion)を行わせつつ高炉内へ吹込むことにより固体還元材の燃焼性 を改善する技術が開示されている。 For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1- 2 9 8 4 7 discloses that the temperature of hot air supplied from a blow pipe is adjusted to 8 10 ° C or higher, and pulverized fuel (in recent years, Coal and coke put into the blast furnace play a role as a reducing agent for iron ore, so they are called “reducing material” from “fuel”, so they are called solid reducing material. Gas fuel parallel to the pipe (hereinafter referred to as “gas reducing material” for the reasons described above.) Blowing pipe is provided, and solid combustion and gas reducing material co-firing A technique for improving the combustibility of a solid reducing material by blowing into a blast furnace while performing (mixed combustion) is disclosed.

特公平 1一 2 9 8 4 7号公報においては、 気体還元材の燃焼熱(combustion heat)を利用して固体還元材の昇温を促進し固体還元材の急速燃焼 (quick combustion)を行なわせることができるとしているが (特公平 1— 2 9 8 4 7号公 報の第 2頁第 4欄第 2 9行〜 3 3行参照) 、 固体還元材と気体還元材の吹込み比 (吹込み比は、 銑鉄 1 トン当たりの還元材の吹込み量を示し、 単位は、 k g /t- p で表される) (injection rate)に関する情報は不明確と言わざるを得ず、 いかな る吹込み比の場合に燃焼性(combustibility)が改善されるかについて知ることが できない。  In Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 1 2 9 8 4 7, the combustion heat of the gas reducing material is used to accelerate the temperature rise of the solid reducing material to cause quick combustion of the solid reducing material (quick combustion). However, the ratio of the solid reducing material to the gas reducing material (blow-off ratio) The injection ratio indicates the amount of reducing material injected per ton of pig iron, and the unit is expressed in kg / t-p.) Information on (injection rate) must be unclear. It is not possible to know whether the combustibility is improved in the case of the injection ratio.

そこで、 発明者らは、 固体還元材と気体還元材の吹込み比にかかわらず燃焼性 を改善できるかという観点から特公平 1 _ 2 9 8 4 7号公報に開示された技術を さまざまな実験により検証した。 その結果、 固体還元材と気体還元材の吹込み比 にかかわらず燃焼性を改善するには気体還元材の燃焼熱を固体還元材に伝える必 要があり、 そのためには気体還元材の燃焼火炎と固体還元材の接触性が重要であ ることが分かった。  Therefore, the inventors have conducted various experiments on the technology disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 _ 29 98 47 from the viewpoint of improving combustibility regardless of the injection ratio of the solid reducing material and the gaseous reducing material. It verified by. As a result, it is necessary to transfer the combustion heat of the gas reducing material to the solid reducing material in order to improve the combustibility regardless of the blowing ratio of the solid reducing material and the gas reducing material. It was found that the contact between the solid reducing material and the solid reducing material is important.

そして、 この接触性を確保するには、 特公平 1一 2 9 8 4 7号公報の実施例に あるような同芯型ランス(lance) (固体還元材の吹込み管の外周部に気体還元材の 吹込み管を配設して気体還元材の燃焼火炎が固体還元材の流線を包み込むような 構造にしたランス) を用いて吹込むか、 あるいは別々のランスからそれぞれ固体 還元材と気体還元材を吹込む場合には、 それぞれのランスから噴出する固体流と 気体流が良く接触するように極めて注意深くランスの位置、 方向を調整する必要 が生じることが明らかになった。  In order to ensure this contact, a concentric lance (as shown in the example of Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 2 9 8 4 7) (gas reduction is performed on the outer periphery of the solid reducing material blowing pipe. Inject the gas reducing pipe with a lance that is structured so that the combustion flame of the gas reducing material wraps around the streamline of the solid reducing material, or from separate lances, respectively. When reducing material was injected, it became clear that it was necessary to adjust the position and direction of the lance very carefully so that the solid flow and gas flow from each lance were in good contact.

ところで、 吹込みランスはブローパイプと呼ばれる高炉の送風管(blast pipe) を貫通して設置する必要があるため、 その外径は小さいことが望まれ、 吹込みラ ンスの外径が大きいとそれだけ大きな穴を送風管に開ける必要があるが、 送風管 の強度や耐熱性に著しい悪影響を与えることになる。 したがって、 外径が大きくなる同芯型のランスは実験炉(experimental furnace)などでは可能であるが、 2 4時間連続操業を続ける実際の製造設備で使 用することは実質的に困難である。 By the way, it is necessary to install the blow lance through a blast pipe of a blast furnace called a blow pipe. Therefore, it is desirable that the outer diameter is small, and that the larger the outer diameter of the blow lance is, Although it is necessary to open a large hole in the air duct, it will have a significant adverse effect on the strength and heat resistance of the air duct. Therefore, a concentric lance with an increased outer diameter can be used in an experimental furnace, but it is practically difficult to use in an actual manufacturing facility that is continuously operated for 24 hours.

また、 複数のランスから固体還元材、 気体還元材を別々に吹込み、 その流線 (stream line)を接触させる実験を行ったが、 やはり困難であった。 つまり、 実機 においてランスの位置、 角度を適切に調整することはかなり困難であり、 たとえ 適切に調整しえたとしても、 熱風の流速、 固体および気体還元材の突出速度  In addition, an experiment was conducted in which a solid reducing agent and a gaseous reducing agent were separately blown from a plurality of lances and the stream lines were brought into contact with each other, but it was still difficult. In other words, it is quite difficult to properly adjust the position and angle of the lance in the actual machine. Even if it can be adjusted properly, the flow velocity of the hot air, the protruding speed of the solid and gas reducing material

(injection velocity) などが脈動したり、 製造設備の細かな振動によりランス 位置が変化したりするため、 常時流線を接触状態に保つことは困難であった。 そして、 流線が接触状態から外れると、 固体還元材の燃焼性は低下し未燃分が 多量に発生し通気性(permeability)悪化や吹き抜け現象 (channeling  (injection velocity) pulsates and the lance position changes due to fine vibrations of the manufacturing equipment, so it was difficult to keep the streamline in contact at all times. When the streamline is out of contact, the combustibility of the solid reductant decreases and a large amount of unburned matter is generated, resulting in poor permeability and blow-through phenomenon (channeling).

phenomenon) など好ましく無い影響が現れた。 phenomenon) and other undesirable effects.

ここで吹き抜けとは、 還元性ガスの流れが止まり炉内の圧力が上昇し、 一定の 圧力に達したとき、 爆発的に還元性ガスの上昇が再開される現象を指している。 このような場合、 ガス流れの再開と同時に炉内の装入物がガスに同伴されて移動 するため、 層状に堆積された装入物の分布が乱れることになる。 装入物の分布が 乱れると、 通気性がさらに悪化したり、 酸化鉄の還元不良等を生じるため、 高炉 操業に極めて悪い影響を与えるのみならず、 圧力の上昇により高炉炉体への機械 的ダメージを与えたり、 急激に高温ガスが噴出することによる諸設備への熱的悪 影響も懸念される。  Here, blow-through refers to a phenomenon in which the flow of reducing gas explosively resumes when the flow of reducing gas stops and the pressure in the furnace rises and reaches a certain pressure. In such a case, the charge in the furnace moves along with the resumption of the gas flow, which disturbs the distribution of the charge deposited in layers. If the distribution of the charge is disturbed, the air permeability will be further deteriorated and the reduction of iron oxide will be deteriorated.This will not only have a very bad influence on the operation of the blast furnace, but also the mechanical pressure on the blast furnace body due to the increase in pressure. There are also concerns about the thermal detrimental effects on various facilities due to damage and rapid hot gas ejection.

以上のように、 特公平 1一 2 9 8 4 7号公報においては、 固体還元材と気体還 元材の吹込み比に関する情報は示されておらず、 いかなる吹込み比にすることで 燃焼性の改善に効果的であるかが不明である。  As described above, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 2 9 8 4 7 does not provide information on the injection ratio of the solid reducing material and the gas reducing material. It is unclear whether it is effective for improvement.

また、 固体還元材と気体還元材の吹込み比によらず燃焼性を改善しようとする と特公平 1一 2 9 8 4 7号公報に示されたような特殊なランスが必要となり、 実 機においての実施が困難である。  In addition, a special lance as shown in Japanese Patent Publication No. 1 2 9 8 4 7 is required to improve the flammability regardless of the injection ratio of the solid reducing material and the gas reducing material. Implementation is difficult.

本発明は、 このような従来技術の課題を解決するためになされたものであり、 気体還元材と固体還元材の吹込み比の適正範囲を明確にすることにより、 固体還 元材と気体還元材との混焼において燃焼性を改善すると共に実機においても実現 可能な高炉操業方法を提供することを目的としている。 発明の開示 The present invention has been made to solve such problems of the prior art, and by clarifying the appropriate range of the blowing ratio of the gas reducing material and the solid reducing material, The purpose is to provide a blast furnace operation method that can be realized in actual equipment as well as improving combustibility in mixed firing of the base material and the gas reducing material.

発明者らは、 固体還元材の燃焼促進手段として、 固体還元材と気体還元材の流 線の接触状態に依存しない輻射燃焼(combustion by radiation heat)について検 討した。 その理由は、 固体還元材と気体還元材の流癱の接触状態に依存しないで も燃焼が促進できる輻射燃焼を利用した燃焼形態であれば、 接触燃焼 (combustion by conduction or convection heat)、 輻射燃焼を問わず燃焼一般における燃焼性 の改善が図れるからである。  The inventors examined the combustion by radiation heat that does not depend on the contact state of the streamline of the solid reducing material and the gas reducing material as means for promoting the combustion of the solid reducing material. The reason is that if the combustion mode uses radiant combustion that can promote combustion without depending on the contact state between the solid reducing agent and the gaseous reducing agent, contact combustion (combustion by conduction or convection heat), radiant combustion This is because it is possible to improve the flammability in general combustion regardless of the above.

詳細は以下の通りである。  Details are as follows.

一般に黒体面(black body face) (すべての電磁波エネルギーを吸収、 放射する 理想的面) からの熱放射(thermal radiation)のエネルギー Eはステフアン ·ボル ツマンの法貝 IJ(Stefan- Boltzmann law of radiation)に従レヽ、 定数 (constant number) σ と絶対温度 (absolute temperature) Tにより、 In general, the energy of thermal radiation from the black body face (the ideal surface that absorbs and radiates all electromagnetic energy) E is Stefan Bol In accordance with Tuman's law shell IJ (Stefan- Boltzmann law of radiation), with constant number σ and absolute temperature T,

今、 気体還元材の燃焼生成物(combustion product)による高温輻射(high temperature radiation)を考えているから C O 2、 H2〇および N2など混合気 (air-fuel mixture)の放射率(emissivity)を ε とすれば利用可能な熱放射エネル ー (thermal radiation energy) E*は、 Since we are now considering high temperature radiation from combustion products of gas reducing materials, the emissivity of air-fuel mixture such as CO 2 , H 2 0 and N 2 Where ε is ε, the available thermal radiation energy E * is

E*= E · σ · T4 (W/m2) ' · · · (式 2) で表されることになる。 E * = E · σ · T 4 (W / m 2 ) '· · · · (Expression 2)

このように熱放射のエネルギーは温度の 4乗に比例して変化するので、 熱放射 エネルギーは温度の影響が非常に大きい。  In this way, the energy of thermal radiation changes in proportion to the fourth power of the temperature, so the thermal radiation energy is very influenced by temperature.

そこで、 熱放射のエネルギーを利用して固体還元材の燃焼促進を図るには、 気 体還元材の火炎温度(flame temperature)を制御することが重要であることが分か る。  Therefore, it is understood that it is important to control the flame temperature of the gas reducing material in order to promote the combustion of the solid reducing material using the energy of heat radiation.

また、 放射率 f の値は温度等によって変化するもののおおむね C02で 0. 0 6、 H20で 0. 05程度の値であり、 C02の方がやや大きい値となる。 したが つて、 特公平 1— 2 984 7号公報では水素の燃焼速度が速いため気体還元材と しては水素が最も有利であると述べられているが、 熱放射のエネルギーを考慮す ると、 メタン (CH4) など C02を生成する還元材が有利と言える。 Also, the value of emissivity f varies with temperature, etc., and is approximately 0.06 for C0 2 and 0.05 for H 2 0. C0 2 is slightly larger. Therefore, Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-29847 states that hydrogen is the most advantageous gas reducing material because of its high hydrogen combustion rate, but considering the energy of thermal radiation, Reducing materials that produce C0 2 such as methane (CH 4 ) are advantageous.

上述のように気体還元材の火炎温度を制御することが重要であることが分かつ たので、 熱風 (hot blast)気流中での気体還元材の燃焼火炎温度について検討を行 なった。 以下においては気体還元材としてメタンガスを用いた。  As described above, it was found that it was important to control the flame temperature of the gas reducing material, so the combustion flame temperature of the gas reducing material in a hot blast stream was examined. In the following, methane gas was used as the gas reducing material.

酸素 (oxygen) とメタンを充分に混合後に着火し、 燃焼が生じるいわゆる予混 合燃焼 (preraixed combustion) では、 燃焼反応 (combustion reaction)力 S平均的 に生じるためその燃焼温度は理論火炎温度(theoretical flame temperature) (断 熱系(adiabatic system)を仮定してェンタルピー収支(enthalpy balance)と物質 収支(mass balance)により決まる平均温度) に近い値になり、 計算により求める ことも可能であるが、 熱風気流中にランスからメタンを噴出させて燃焼させる場 合はいわゆる拡散燃焼(diffusion combustion)となり、 必ずしも理論火炎温度と は等しくならない。 ここで言う拡散燃焼とは、 以下のようなものをいう。 ランス から噴出する気体還元材流は、 ランスを頂点とする円錐形 (conical shape)となる。 円錐 (cone)の内部には酸素は存在しないため燃焼反応は進行せず、 円錐の外周表 層部で熱風と混合した気体還元材が燃焼を開始する。 その後円錐内部に向かつて 火炎が拡散 ·伝播して行く。 これを拡散燃焼という。 In so-called preraixed combustion, in which oxygen and methane are ignited after sufficient mixing and combustion occurs, the combustion reaction force S is generated in an average, so the combustion temperature is the theoretical flame temperature (theoretical). flame temperature) (average temperature determined by enthalpy balance and mass balance) assuming an adiabatic system, calculated by calculation However, when methane is ejected from a lance into a hot air stream and burned, so-called diffusion combustion occurs, which is not necessarily equal to the theoretical flame temperature. The diffusion combustion here refers to the following. The gas reductant flow ejected from the lance has a conical shape with the lance at the apex. Since there is no oxygen inside the cone, the combustion reaction does not proceed, and the gas reducing material mixed with the hot air starts burning at the outer peripheral surface of the cone. After that, the flame diffuses and propagates toward the inside of the cone. This is called diffusion combustion.

このように、 熱風気流中にランスからメタンを噴出させて燃焼させる場合は拡 散燃焼になるため、 その燃焼温度は単なる断熱平均温度(adiabatic mean temperature)にはならない。 そこで、 火炎温度を実測して求めることとした。 具 体的には以下に示すようにした。  In this way, when methane is ejected from a lance into a hot air stream and burned, it becomes diffuse combustion, so the combustion temperature is not just an adiabatic mean temperature. Therefore, the flame temperature was determined by actual measurement. Specifically, it was as shown below.

(combustion test furnace)を用いて火炎温度の実測を行なった。 送風温度は 1 2 00°Cに固定し、 送風量は 300Nm3/h rとし、 メタンの吹込み比を 0〜 1 0 0 k g/t-p (単位 k g/t- pは、 銑鉄 1 トン当たりのガスの吹込み量を示す) の 範囲で変化させた。 火炎温度はランス先端から 1 0 Ommおよび 20 Omm下流 において放射温度計により側面観察窓(sideward observation window)から実測し た。 The flame temperature was measured using a (combustion test furnace). The blast temperature is fixed at 120 ° C, the blast volume is 300 Nm 3 / hr, and the methane blowing ratio is 0 to 100 kg / tp (unit kg / tp is the gas per ton of pig iron. (Indicating the amount of blown in). The flame temperature was measured from the sideward observation window with a radiation thermometer at 10 Omm and 20 Omm downstream from the tip of the lance.

メタンの吹込み比については式 3に示す換算式により時間当たり吹込み量から、 銑鉄 1 トン当たりの吹込み量に変換した。  The methane blowing ratio was converted from the blowing rate per hour to the blowing rate per ton of pig iron using the conversion formula shown in Equation 3.

The thermal radiant energy indicates the relative value (E * / E * 1200) when the thermal radiant energy (E * 1200) at 1 200 ° C is 1. The combustion rate of pulverized coal is measured by measuring the combustion rate after collecting the unburned dust by co-firing with the blown gas at the blow rate of 100 kg / tp after the measurement of the combustion temperature of the gas flame. . The measurement method of the burning rate was measured by the method described in the following reference.

図 3に示されるように、 火炎温度はガス吹込み比の増大とともに上昇し、 ガス 吹込み比が 1 8 k g /t-p以上でほぼ一定値となることが分かった。 これに対応し て、 火炎からの熱放射エネルギーもガス吹込み比の増大とともに増大するが、 式 1および式 2で示したように温度の 4乗に比例して増大するためその傾きは極め て大きいものとなっている。 この熱放射エネルギーを受けて微粉炭の燃焼性は改 善されることになる。  As shown in Fig. 3, it was found that the flame temperature increased as the gas injection ratio increased, and became almost constant when the gas injection ratio was 18 kg / tp or more. Correspondingly, the thermal radiant energy from the flame increases as the gas injection ratio increases, but as shown in Equations 1 and 2, it increases in proportion to the fourth power of the temperature, so the slope is extremely small. It has become big. The combustibility of pulverized coal will be improved by receiving this heat radiation energy.

微粉炭の燃焼率はガス吹込み比が 1 0 k g /t-p以上でほぼ一定値となった。 微 粉炭の燃焼は揮発成分 (volatile matter content)の燃焼が先行して生じ、 その後 固定炭素分(fixed carbon)が燃焼するが、 このうち熱供給律速反応(heat feeding rate controlling reaction)は揮発分の放出とその燃焼反応であり、 ガス吹込み 比が 1 0 k g /t-p以上では熱放射エネルギーはまだ上昇をつづけるが、 微粉炭の 揮発分を燃焼させるに充分な熱量 (amount of heat)が供給されたため微粉炭の燃 焼率(combustion efficiency)は一定となったと考えられる。 言いかえれば、 微粉 炭の燃焼率をさらに上昇させるためには、 熱放射エネルギーの供給ではなく、 固 定炭素と酸素との接触を増大させるような工夫が必要になるものと考えられる。 いずれにしても、 微粉炭の燃焼性向上のためにはガス吹込み比は 1 0 k g /t-p 以上が望ましい。  The combustion rate of pulverized coal became almost constant when the gas injection ratio was 10 kg / tp or more. The combustion of pulverized coal is preceded by the combustion of volatile matter content, and then fixed carbon is combusted. Among them, the heat feeding rate controlling reaction is the volatile matter content. This is a release and its combustion reaction. When the gas injection ratio is 10 kg / tp or more, the thermal radiation energy continues to rise, but a sufficient amount of heat is supplied to burn the volatile matter of pulverized coal. Therefore, the combustion efficiency of pulverized coal is considered to be constant. In other words, in order to further increase the combustion rate of pulverized coal, it may be necessary to devise measures to increase the contact between fixed carbon and oxygen rather than supplying thermal radiation energy. In any case, in order to improve the combustibility of pulverized coal, the gas injection ratio is desirably 10 kg / t-p or more.

ガス吹込み比を増大させていくと、 図 4に示すように、 7 5 k g /t-p以上で火 炎温度は低下し始めた。 これは前述のように燃焼は円錐状のガス流(gas stream) の表層(surface layer)のみで生じ、 この面積は吹込み比を增大させてもそれほど は増大しない一方で、 ガス吹込み比を増大させたことで常温 (room temperature) のガスが冷却剤として働くためと考えられる。 燃焼温度が低下しても燃焼率は維 持されるが、 放射エネルギー E */ E *1200が 6を割り込むガス吹込み比 8 O k g Λ - p以上では微粉炭の燃焼率は低下を始めた。 As the gas injection ratio was increased, the flame temperature began to drop at 75 kg / tp or higher as shown in Fig. 4. This is because, as mentioned above, combustion is a conical gas stream. The surface area does not increase as much as the blowing ratio is increased, while the room temperature gas is used as a coolant by increasing the gas blowing ratio. It is thought to work. Although the combustion rate is maintained even when the combustion temperature decreases, the combustion rate of pulverized coal begins to decrease at a gas injection ratio of 8 O kg Λ-p or more where the radiant energy E * / E * 1200 is less than 6. .

したがって、 気体還元材の吹込み比は 1 0乃至 8 0 k g /t-pが適切な範囲と結 きる。  Therefore, the blowing ratio of the gas reducing material can be in the appropriate range of 10 to 80 kg / t-p.

次に本発明の微粉炭等の固体還元材の吹込み比の上下限について検討する。 固 体還元材の吹込み比の下限値については特に重要な制約は無いが、 微粉炭吹込み 比 (pulverized coal injection rate) カ 50kg/t- p以下であれば図 5に示すよう に、 微粉炭単独吹込み時と気体還元材と微粉炭の同時吹込み時の微粉炭燃焼率は ほぼ同一となった。 通常、 微粉炭は常温で吹き込まれるか場合により予熱して吹 き込まれるが、 予熱される場合でも石炭の熱分解温度 (概ね 400°C) 以下の温度 であり、 熱風 (概ね 1200°C) に比較して低温である。 したがって微粉炭の吹込み 比が多い場合には、 吹込み直後の雰囲気温度が微粉炭により冷却され大きく低下 するため、 微粉炭の燃焼が著しく遅れることとなる。 このため、 気体還元材を同 時に吹き込むことにより、 気体還元材の燃焼の結果生じる熱放射エネルギーが微 粉炭の燃焼を促進する。 一方で微粉炭の吹込み比が少ない場合には、 熱風による 熱供給のみで充分に微粉炭の着火燃焼を誘引できる条件にあることがわかる。 こ のように微粉炭吹込み比が 50kg/t-p以下であれば微粉炭は充分に燃焼させること が容易であることから、 本発明を適用するまでも無く高い燃焼率を得ることがで き、 したがって高価なコータスを低減しつつ経済的な操業が可能である。  Next, the upper and lower limits of the blowing ratio of the solid reducing material such as pulverized coal of the present invention will be examined. There is no particular restriction on the lower limit of the injection ratio of the solid reducing material, but if the pulverized coal injection rate is 50 kg / t-p or less, as shown in Fig. 5, The pulverized coal combustion rate was almost the same when the coal was injected alone and when the gas reducing agent and pulverized coal were injected simultaneously. Normally, pulverized coal is blown at room temperature or preheated depending on the case, but even when preheated, the temperature is below the pyrolysis temperature of coal (approximately 400 ° C) and hot air (approximately 1200 ° C). Compared to low temperature. Therefore, when the injection ratio of pulverized coal is large, the ambient temperature immediately after the injection is cooled by the pulverized coal and greatly decreases, so the combustion of the pulverized coal is significantly delayed. For this reason, by blowing the gas reducing material at the same time, the thermal radiation energy resulting from the combustion of the gas reducing material promotes the combustion of the pulverized coal. On the other hand, when the blowing ratio of pulverized coal is small, it can be seen that the ignited combustion of pulverized coal can be sufficiently induced only by supplying heat with hot air. In this way, if the pulverized coal injection ratio is 50 kg / tp or less, the pulverized coal can be easily burned sufficiently, so that a high combustion rate can be obtained without applying the present invention. Therefore, it is possible to operate economically while reducing expensive coatas.

一方、 固体還元材の吹込み比の上限値については後述の実施例の実機試験の結 果から 1 5 0 k g /t - pであることが明らかとなった。 実機で本発明を検証するた めの試験を実施したところ微粉炭吹込み比が 1 5 0 k g /t-pを超えると吹き抜け 現象が急増した。 これは、 本発明により微粉炭の燃焼効率 (combustion efficiency) を 6 0 mass%から 7 0 mass%に引き上げたとはいえ、 依然として吹 込み微粉炭のうち、 3 O mass%は未燃物として炉内部に入り、 蓄積することによ るものと推定される。 On the other hand, the upper limit of the blowing ratio of the solid reducing material was found to be 150 kg / t-p from the results of actual machine tests in the examples described later. When a test for verifying the present invention was carried out with an actual machine, the blow-through phenomenon increased rapidly when the pulverized coal injection ratio exceeded 150 kg / tp. Although the combustion efficiency of pulverized coal was increased from 60 mass% to 70 mass% according to the present invention, It is estimated that 3 O mass% of the pulverized coal enters the furnace as unburned material and accumulates.

上記の実験では、 吹込み固体還元材として微粉炭のみを对象としたが、 微粉炭 と合成樹脂材を混合して吹込んでも同様の結果を得た。 その他に、 微粒化した合 成樹脂、 微粒化した木材チップなどや、 これらの混合物を用いてもよい。  In the above experiment, only pulverized coal was used as the blown solid reducing material, but similar results were obtained even when pulverized coal and synthetic resin were mixed and blown. In addition, atomized synthetic resin, atomized wood chips, or a mixture thereof may be used.

また、 上記の実験では、 気体還元材としてメタンガスを用いたが、 液化天然ガ ス (liquefied natural gas, L N G) 、 都市ガス(city gas) , 液化石油ガス (liquefied petroleum gas, L P G) 、 コータスガス (C O G ) 、 水素ガス (hydrogen gas)吹込みでも同様の結果を得た。 もっとも、 前述の式 2に示した放 射率の高い C 0 2からの熱放射を考えると、 ドライベースの元素分析で、 炭素を 5 0 mass%以上含有したメタン、 液化天然ガス、 都市ガス、 液化石油ガス、 コータス ガス等の炭素を含有する還元材であれば、 さらに好ましい。 また、 これらのガス は、 工業的にも入手が容易である。 なお、 水素ガスは、 熱放射の面で C O 2に比べ て、 不利であり、 純粋な水素ガスは、 工業的にも入手が困難である。 In the above experiment, methane gas was used as the gas reducing material, but liquefied natural gas (LNG), city gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), coatas gas (COG) ) Similar results were obtained with hydrogen gas injection. However, considering the thermal radiation from C 0 2 with a high emissivity shown in Equation 2 above, methane containing 50 mass% or more of carbon, liquefied natural gas, city gas, A reducing material containing carbon such as liquefied petroleum gas and coatus gas is more preferable. These gases are also easily available industrially. Hydrogen gas is disadvantageous compared to CO 2 in terms of heat radiation, and pure hydrogen gas is difficult to obtain industrially.

特に、 入手が容易なガスとしてたとえば液化天然ガスや、 都市ガスが望ましく、 これらはメタンを主成分 (概ねメタン 8 0体積%以上) とすることが多い。 実施例  In particular, liquefied natural gas and city gas are desirable as readily available gases, and these are often mainly composed of methane (approximately 80% by volume or more of methane). Example

図 1は本実施の形態に係る高炉操業方法の実施に使用した高炉及びその周辺設 備の概要の説明図である。  Fig. 1 is an explanatory diagram of the outline of the blast furnace and its peripheral equipment used in the implementation of the blast furnace operating method according to this embodiment.

本実施の形態に使用した高炉及びその周辺設備は、 図 1に示すように、 内容積 が 3 2 2 3 m 3である高炉 1の送風管 2を貫通して微粉炭吹込みランス 3、 合成樹 脂材吹込みランス 4、 気体還元材吹込みランス 5が設置されている。 また、 本実施の形態において用いた微粉炭、 合成樹脂材、 気体還元材の各分析 値は表 1に示す通りである。 また、 用いた気体還元材の構成分子分析値を表 2に 示す。 - 以下に述べる実施例においては、 様々な吹込み条件下で羽口から補助還元材と して気体還元材及び固体還元材を吹込む高炉操業方法を実施し、 気体還元材の吹 込み比を 1 0〜8 0 k g /t- pの範囲とし、 かつ固体還元材の吹込み比を 5 0〜1 5 0 k g /t - pの範囲とした複数の例を実施例として表 3および 4に示した。 また、 気体還元材の吹込み比及び/または固体還元材の吹込み比が上記本発明の 範囲を外れた例を比較例として表 5および 6に示した。 As shown in Fig. 1, the blast furnace used in the present embodiment and its peripheral equipment penetrated the blast pipe 2 of the blast furnace 1 having an internal volume of 3 2 2 3 m 3 and pulverized coal injection lance 3, A resin material blowing lance 4 and a gas reducing material blowing lance 5 are installed. Table 1 shows the analytical values of pulverized coal, synthetic resin material, and gas reducing material used in the present embodiment. In addition, Table 2 shows the constituent molecular analysis values of the gas reducing materials used. -In the examples described below, a blast furnace operation method in which a gas reducing material and a solid reducing material are injected as auxiliary reducing materials from the tuyere under various blowing conditions, and the blowing ratio of the gas reducing materials is set. Examples are shown in Tables 3 and 4 as examples in the range of 10 to 80 kg / t-p and the blowing ratio of the solid reducing material in the range of 50 to 150 kg / t-p. Indicated. Tables 5 and 6 show examples in which the blowing ratio of the gas reducing material and / or the blowing ratio of the solid reducing material was out of the range of the present invention as comparative examples.

なお、 高炉の操業を安定して行なうためには、 羽口先の断熱理論温度が 2 0 0 0 °c程度の値で一定とすることが重要であるため、 各送風条件に応じて酸素富化 率(oxygen enrichment rate)の調整を行なった。 このとき、 高炉への酸素の供給 量を一^ (すなわち銑鉄の生産速度一定) となるように送風量を調整した。 酸素 富化率の高い実施例においては送風量が減少する。  In order to operate the blast furnace stably, it is important to keep the theoretical adiabatic temperature at the tuyere constant at a value of about 200 ° C., so oxygen enrichment depends on each blowing condition. The rate (oxygen enrichment rate) was adjusted. At this time, the air flow rate was adjusted so that the amount of oxygen supplied to the blast furnace was 1 (ie, the production rate of pig iron was constant). In an embodiment with a high oxygen enrichment rate, the air flow is reduced.

ここで微粉炭の置換率については、 還元材の吹込み無しでのコークス比が 499kg/tであったことと、 気体還元材および合成樹脂材の置換率を便宜上 1. 0に 固定することにより、 下式 4により算出した。 厳密には置換率は還元材の種類に よって異なるが、 複数種類の還元材の置換率をそれぞれ分離して算出することは 極めて困難である。 便宜的に微粉炭以外の置換率を固定し、 複数種類の還元材の 置換率を微粉炭の置換率で代表させたことになるが、 最終的に合計の還元材比を 低減することが目的であることを考慮すれば、 このような置換率算出方法は簡便 法として有効と考えられる。  Here, regarding the replacement rate of pulverized coal, the coke ratio without reducing material blowing was 499 kg / t, and the replacement rate of gas reducing material and synthetic resin material was fixed at 1.0 for convenience. It was calculated by the following formula 4. Strictly speaking, the replacement rate varies depending on the type of reducing material, but it is extremely difficult to calculate the replacement rates of multiple types of reducing materials separately. For convenience, the replacement rate other than pulverized coal is fixed, and the replacement rate of multiple types of reducing materials is represented by the replacement rate of pulverized coal, but the goal is to ultimately reduce the total reducing material ratio In view of this, such a substitution rate calculation method is considered to be effective as a simple method.

(式 4 ) 実施例 1は気体還元材 C (メタン) 比を 20 k g/t-p、 微粉炭比を 70 k g/t- Pとした場合を示す。 微粉炭の置換率は 0. 71と高く吹込み還元材によりコー クスを有効に低減できていると言える。 (Formula 4) Example 1 shows the case where the gas reducing material C (methane) ratio is 20 kg / tp and the pulverized coal ratio is 70 kg / t-P.

以上のように、 本発明の実施例 1 〜 1 4はすべて微粉炭の置換率が 0 . 7以上 の高い値を示しており、 吹込み還元材によりコークスを有効に低減できている。 また、 吹き抜け現象の発生は、 1度も発生しなかった。  As described above, Examples 1 to 14 of the present invention all show a high value of pulverized coal replacement ratio of 0.7 or more, and coke can be effectively reduced by the blown reducing material. Moreover, the occurrence of a blow-through phenomenon never occurred.

In addition, the occurrence of the blow-through phenomenon occurred frequently at 11 or more times. There are various methods for injecting the auxiliary reducing material. For example, two or three types of pulverized coal, synthetic resin material, and gas reducing material are simultaneously injected by concentric multi-tube lances. (Refer to Fig. 6) and a method of mixing and blowing two or three types in a single tube (see Fig. 7). A plurality of methods are conceivable, and the present invention is not particularly limited.

この点、 従来技術においては気体還元材と吹込み固体還元材を接触させて伝熱 を促進せしめることが必要であるため、 そのランス構造や配置に特別の注意を要 した。  In this regard, in the prior art, it is necessary to promote heat transfer by bringing the gas reducing material and the blown solid reducing material into contact with each other, so special attention was required for the lance structure and arrangement.

しかし、 本発明においては、 気体還元材の燃焼により生じる熱放射を利用する ためにランスの構造や吹込み方法に特別な制約は無く、 実機においての実施が容 易である。 産業上の利用可能性  However, in the present invention, since the heat radiation generated by the combustion of the gas reducing material is used, there is no particular restriction on the structure of the lance and the blowing method, and the implementation on the actual machine is easy.
