Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric furnace used in a process of reducing molten slag or solidified slag lump produced in a steel making process by injecting the molten slag or solidified slag lump directly into the electric furnace from the slag conveying container or via the inclined slag.
- This application claims priority on December 16, 2016 based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-244502 for which it applied to Japan, and uses the content here.
- Patent Document 1 steel slag is added to the molten steel in the melting furnace, heat and reducing material are added to transform the steel slag, and Fe, Mn, and P in the slag are transferred to the molten metal.
- a slag treatment method is disclosed, which includes a first step of obtaining Mn and P, and second and third steps of oxidizing Mn and P in the molten metal and sequentially transferring them to a metamorphic slag and sequentially taking out high Mn slag and high P slag. Yes.
- Patent Document 2 steel slag with an iron oxide content of more than 5 wt% is introduced into a steel bath with a carbon content of less than 1.5 wt%, and then the steel bath is carbonized by introducing carbon or a carbon carrier to contain the carbon.
- a method is disclosed in which a steel bath with a rate of greater than 2.0 wt% is obtained and thereafter the oxide in the steel slag is reduced.
- the carbon content of the steel bath is reduced before slag is charged. The reaction rate at the time of slag injection is eased by setting, and the carbon content is then increased to reduce the slag.
- Patent Document 3 describes a process in which molten slag is continuously charged from a transport ladle into a reaction vessel having a molten iron layer and a molten iron layer to perform a reduction treatment.
- Patent Document 4 high-temperature molten slag having fluidity is temporarily held in a slag holding furnace, and the molten slag layer is formed as a buffer zone on the molten iron layer in the electric furnace, and then the slag is held in the molten slag layer. It is described that molten slag is injected from a furnace and carbon as a reducing material is supplied to the slag-metal interface.
- Patent Document 4 Since the structure of Patent Document 4 uses an electric furnace, the reduction reaction is dominated by the reaction between iron (FeO) and carbon (C) in the slag rather than the reaction between slag and molten iron. Therefore, even if the C concentration in the molten iron is as low as about 1.5% by mass, it is possible to perform slag reduction treatment without carburizing, which is excellent in that work efficiency can be improved. .
- Patent Document 4 does not directly put molten slag into the electric furnace, but temporarily holds it in a slag holding furnace arranged adjacent to the electric furnace, and buffers the molten slag layer on the molten iron layer in the electric furnace. Since the molten slag is gradually injected while adjusting the injection amount after being formed as a belt, the atmosphere can be easily controlled by sealing the furnace, and slag forming at the time of slag injection can be suppressed. Excellent in terms.
- a slag reduction treatment apparatus requires a holding furnace in addition to an electric furnace, and there is a problem that the apparatus becomes large.
- the contact area between the molten slag and the holding container surface increases, so there is a problem that heat dissipation loss increases.

- the tilting section for tilting the electric furnace and the position higher than the maximum height of the shallow bottom portion of the furnace wall There may be provided a tap outlet for discharging molten slag, and a furnace bottom outlet for discharging molten iron provided on an extension of the deep bottom portion.
- the furnace lid may be movable between an upper end of the furnace wall and a side of the furnace wall, and the slag inlet is the furnace. It may be an open portion formed above the furnace wall in a state where the lid is moved to the side of the furnace wall.
- the molten slag or the solidified slag lump generated in the steelmaking process is directly from the slag transport container or the slag transport container. Even if it is injected into the electric furnace via an inclined rod, it is possible to prevent the molten slag immediately after being injected and the molten iron layer in the electric furnace from being vigorously mixed. Therefore, it is possible to increase the reduction treatment efficiency by maintaining the in-furnace atmosphere non-oxidizing while preventing the molten slag and the molten iron layer from reacting abruptly to generate large slag forming.
- hot metal is produced using a blast furnace in the iron making process (S1), and pig iron is refined into steel using a converter or the like in the steel making process (S2).
- This steel making process (S2) is a desulfurization, dephosphorization, and decarburization process that removes sulfur, phosphorus, carbon, etc. in the hot metal, and gas, sulfur, etc., remaining in the molten steel, and component adjustment.

- slag (desulfurization slag, dephosphorization slag, decarburization slag) having different components is generated.
- the slag generated in the steelmaking process is generically referred to as steelmaking slag
- the steelmaking slag is a concept including desulfurization slag, dephosphorization slag, and decarburization slag.
- Steelmaking slag in a molten state at high temperature is referred to as molten slag.
- desulfurized slag, dephosphorized slag, and decarburized slag in molten state are respectively melted desulfurized slag, molten dephosphorized slag, and molten decarburized slag. Called.
- the molten slag generated in the steel making step (S2) is transported from the converter to the electric furnace in a molten state, and continuously reduced and melt-modified in the electric furnace. Then, valuable materials (feature elements such as Fe and P) in the molten slag are recovered in the molten iron layer, which is the lower layer of the molten slag layer.
- a reduction process of oxides such as Fe and P in the molten slag a process of separating granular iron (iron) from the slag, a process of adjusting the basicity of the slag, and the like are performed.

- the molten iron is recycled to the steel making process (S2) and is put into a converter or the like.
- the outline of the slag processing process according to the present embodiment has been described above.
- the molten dephosphorized slag is at a lower temperature than the molten decarburized slag, but contains a large amount of granular iron and phosphoric acid. For this reason, recovery efficiency of valuable elements (Fe, P, etc.) by this process becomes high by melt-modifying molten dephosphorization slag not by oxidation treatment but by reduction treatment.
- the molten slag of the present invention is not limited to molten dephosphorization slag, and any steelmaking slag generated in the steelmaking process such as molten desulfurization slag and molten decarburization slag can be used.
- the electric furnace 1 is a furnace in which a molten iron layer 6 and a molten slag layer 5 are formed in S10.
- the electric furnace 1 includes a furnace bottom 11, a cylindrical furnace wall 12, and a furnace lid 13.
- a refractory is lined on the inner surfaces of the furnace bottom 11, the furnace wall 12, and the furnace lid 13.
- the slag inlet 14 is formed in the furnace lid 13.
- the slag inlet 14 is covered with an openable slag inlet door 14a that can move in the direction A in FIG.
- the electric furnace 1 is sealed except for the slag inlet 14 and can keep the inside of the furnace warm.
- the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a can be charged into the slag charging port 14 directly from the slag conveying container or from the slag conveying container via the inclined slag.
- FIG. 7 in a state where the furnace lid 13 has moved to the side of the furnace wall 12, an open part is formed above the furnace wall 12, and this open part becomes the slag inlet 14. 2 to 5 exemplify a stationary DC current furnace as the electric furnace 1, and FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrate a tilting DC current furnace, an AC current furnace may be used.
- FIGS. 2 to 5 a stationary DC current furnace according to the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 to 5 will be described.
- an upper electrode 15 and a furnace bottom electrode 16 are disposed so as to face each other in the vertical direction.
- a reducing material charging nozzle 33 is formed on the furnace wall 12.
- the reducing material charging nozzle 33 is a device that supplies auxiliary materials such as a reducing material and a modifying material necessary for the reduction treatment of the molten slag 4.
- a powdery carbon material such as coke powder, anthracite coal powder, graphite powder or the like is used.
- the reducing material is also a suppressing means when slag forming occurs.
- the modifier mainly adjusts the concentration of SiO 2 or Al 2 O 3 in the slag, and silica sand, fly ash, waste refractory powder and the like can be used.
- the reducing material charging nozzle 33 is also a suppressing means when slag forming occurs.
- the reducing material charging nozzle 33 may be formed on both the furnace wall 12 and the furnace lid 13.
- the furnace lid 13 is provided with a duct 32 that is an exhaust duct.
- the furnace bottom 11 has a deep bottom portion 11d and a shallow bottom portion 11a whose bottom is shallower than the deep bottom portion 11d.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a is installed close to the furnace wall 12 assuming that it is exposed from the surface of the molten iron layer 6. Yes.
- hot metal or molten steel may be charged into the electric furnace together with the molten slag, and hot metal is generated as the slag is reduced, so that the height of the molten iron layer 6 increases.
- the hot water outlet 18 for discharging the molten iron is opened to reduce the height of the molten iron layer 6, so that the shallow bottom portion 11a is exposed from the molten iron layer 6 in the period after the decrease, In this state, it is assumed that the molten slag to be reduced next is charged into the electric furnace 1. However, if the shallow bottom portion 11a is not exposed from the molten iron layer 6, the molten slag cannot be charged. If the height of the molten iron layer is lower than a certain level on the shallow bottom portion 11a, the molten slag has been charged. Since vigorous mixing of the molten slag 4 and the molten iron layer 6 is suppressed, the object of the present invention can be achieved.
- the shallow bottom portion 11 a is a portion that is raised assuming that the molten steel slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4 a is charged into the electric furnace 1 and that the furnace bottom 11 is higher than the thickness of the molten iron layer 6.
- the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a generated in the steel making process is injected into the electric furnace 1 directly from the slag transport container 21 or from the slag transport container 21 via the inclined rod 23. Is done. Since the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a flows in via the slag inlet 14, the molten slag flowing in from the spout falls toward the shallow bottom portion 11a. That is, the shallow bottom portion 11a includes the position where the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a flows down from the slag inlet 14.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a is formed, for example, by making the furnace bottom 11 shallow in a stepped manner.
- the shallow bottom part 11a is comprised with a refractory like the inner surface of the furnace bottom 11 of another part.
- a slag inlet 14 is formed in the furnace lid 13.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a is formed by the furnace bottom 11 becoming shallower by one step, but the shallow bottom portion 11a is not limited to this shape.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a may be formed by shallowing the furnace bottom 11 over two or more stages, or the shallow bottom portion 11a may be formed by forming a continuous slope instead of a stepped shape. May be.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a does not necessarily have a horizontal plane as shown in FIG. Below the slag inlet 14, the shallow bottom portion 11 a is a region having a height of 150 mm or more and 500 mm or less with respect to the deepest portion of the deep bottom portion 11 d, and the area ratio in a plan view of the shallow bottom portion 11 a with respect to the furnace bottom 11 is 5% or more.
- the entire shallow bottom portion 11a may have a stepped shape or a slope shape.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a has a horizontal surface, it is preferable in that the area ratio in a plan view of the shallow bottom portion 11a with respect to the furnace bottom 11 can be secured 5% or more without reducing the furnace volume more than necessary.
- the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a is charged into the electric furnace 1 from the slag transport container 21 or the slag transport container 21 via the inclined rod 23.
- the molten slag 4 is introduced from the slag inlet 14 and flows down to the molten slag layer 5.
- the molten slag layer 5 is disturbed by the molten slag 4 that has flowed down, but there is a shallow bottom portion 11a in the place where the molten slag has flowed, and the molten iron layer 6 does not exist in the lower layer of the molten slag layer 5 in this place. 4 does not contact the molten iron layer 6. Therefore, the slag forming due to the rapid reaction of the molten slag 4 immediately after the injection with the molten iron layer 6 is prevented.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a is a region where the height H of the deep bottom portion 11d with respect to the deepest portion is 150 mm or more and 500 mm or less. This is because if the height is 150 mm or more, an effect of relaxing the situation where the newly charged molten slag 4 is vigorously mixed with the original molten iron layer 6 can be expected. Moreover, the reason why the height of the deep bottom portion 11d with respect to the deepest portion is 500 mm or less is that there is no point in making it over 500 mm.
- S 1 and the area in plan view of the deep bottom 11d As shown in FIG. 3, S 1 and the area in plan view of the deep bottom 11d, the area in plan view of the shallow bottom portion 11a when the S 2, the area ratio in plan view of the shallow bottom part 11a against the bottom of the furnace 11 ((S 2 / (S 1 + S 2 )) ⁇ 100) is preferably 5% or more and 40% or less.
- the area ratio is 5% or more, the ratio of the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a that can enjoy the mixing relaxation effect is ensured, and intense formation of the slag as a whole can be suppressed.
- the area ratio is more than 40%, the forming generation suppressing effect is hardly increased, but the molten iron capacity as the molten iron layer 6 and the interfacial area between the molten iron layer 6 and the molten slag layer 5 are reduced. There is a concern that the reduction efficiency is reduced. Further, if it exceeds 40%, the shallow bottom portion 11a is included in the high current density region of the furnace bottom 11, so that the shallow bottom portion 11a is easily consumed.
- the shallow bottom portion 11a in the present invention "height H to the deepest portion of the deep portion 11d is 150mm or more, 500 mm or less in the region" because it defines the boundary of S 1 and S 2 are deepest portion of the deep portion 11d
- the height H with respect to the position is 150 mm.
- the shallow bottom portion 11 a is exposed from the molten iron layer 6 while submerged in the molten slag layer 5, but may be exposed from the molten slag layer 5.
- the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a injected from the slag inlet 14 collides with the surface of the shallow bottom portion 11a, and then flows down the surface of the shallow bottom portion 11a and flows into the molten slag layer 5.
- the molten slag 4 collides with the surface of the shallow bottom portion 11a, the kinetic energy is reduced. Therefore, the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a is not violently mixed into the molten iron layer 6 from the shallow bottom portion 11a. Therefore, a rapid reaction between the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a and the molten iron is also suppressed, and slag forming is suppressed.
- the solidified slag lump 4a is charged, as shown in FIG. 5, it is assumed that the solid slag lump 4a is first deposited on the shallow bottom portion 11a. Since the solidified slag lump 4a is first dissolved in the molten slag layer 5 and then moves to the upper part of the molten iron layer 6, the solidified slag lump 4a is not directly mixed with the molten iron layer 6 and is contained in the solidified slag lump 4a. Since it is avoided that the FeO and the like react vigorously with C in the molten iron, slag forming can be prevented.
- the charging speed of the molten slag 4 or the solidified slag lump 4a can be increased as compared with the structure without the shallow bottom portion 11a, so that the time for opening the furnace when the slag is charged can be shortened. Therefore, the time during which the inside of the furnace is kept in the reducing atmosphere can be increased, and the reduction rate can be increased.

Abstract
Description
本願は、2016年12月16日に、日本に出願された特願2016-244502号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
さらに、溶融スラグは搬送中あるいは電気炉への注入中に一部が凝固して凝固スラグとなる場合がある。この凝固スラグもリサイクルの観点からは還元処理を行うのが望ましい。
しかしながら特許文献4に記載のスラグ還元法は保持炉を用いているため、凝固スラグを投入できないという問題があった。また、仮に凝固スラグを投入したとしても、大きさと重量によっては電気炉に投入すると溶融スラグ層を突き抜けて溶鉄層と接触してスラグフォーミングを生じることがあり、溶融スラグ層が緩衝帯として機能し難いという問題があった。
(1)本発明の一態様は、筒状の炉壁と、前記炉壁の上端に設けられた炉蓋と、前記炉壁の下端に設けられ、深底部と、前記深底部の最深部に対する高さが150mm以上、500mm以下の領域である浅底部と、を有する炉底と、を有する電気炉であって、前記電気炉には、スラグ搬送容器から直接、またはスラグ搬送容器から傾斜樋を経由して溶融スラグまたは凝固スラグ塊を投入することができるスラグ投入口が設けられ、前記スラグ投入口が前記浅底部と平面視で重なりを有し、前記炉底に対する前記浅底部の平面視における面積率が5%以上、40%以下である。
(2)上記(1)に記載された電気炉は、前記炉蓋、または前記炉蓋と前記炉壁の両方に設けられ、還元材を炉内に投入する還元材投入ノズルと、前記炉蓋に設けられた排気ダクトを有してもよい。
(3)上記(1)又は(2)に記載された電気炉では、前記スラグ投入口は前記炉蓋に設けられ、開閉式のスラグ投入ドアで覆われてもよい。
(4)上記(1)~(3)のいずれか一項に記載された電気炉は、前記炉壁の、前記浅底部の最高高さよりも高い位置に設けられ、溶融スラグを排出する出滓口と、前記炉壁の、前記浅底部よりも低い位置に設けられ、溶鉄を排出する出湯口と、を有してもよく、前記電気炉は据置式であってもよい。
(5)上記(1)~(3)のいずれか一項に記載された電気炉は、前記電気炉を傾動させる傾動部と、前記炉壁の、前記浅底部の最高高さよりも高い位置に設けられ、溶融スラグを排出する出滓口と、前記深底部の延長上に設けられ、溶鉄を排出する炉底出湯口と、を有してもよい。
(6)上記(5)に記載された電気炉では、前記炉蓋が、前記炉壁の上端と前記炉壁の側方の間を移動可能であってもよく、前記スラグ投入口が前記炉蓋を前記炉壁の側方に移動した状態で前記炉壁の上方に形成される開放部であってもよい。
また高温の凝固スラグを直接電気炉に投入することにより、凝固スラグの顕熱を回収することが可能となると同時に、通常プロセスにおいて必要とされる凝固スラグの破砕・磁力選鉱・エージング等のプロセスを省略し、すべての対象スラグを溶融還元することが可能となる。更に据置式電気炉のみならず、一般に鉄源溶解用として広く普及している傾動式電気炉でも、小改造を加えることによって本発明の目的を達成できる利用が可能となるため、既存の設備の転用が容易となる利点がある。
まず、図1を参照して、本発明の実施形態に係る電気炉を使用したスラグ処理プロセスの概要を説明する。
電気炉1はS10において、内部に溶鉄層6と溶融スラグ層5を形成する炉である。
電気炉1は、炉底11と、円筒状の炉壁12と、炉蓋13とを有する。炉底11、炉壁12、および炉蓋13のそれぞれの内面には、耐火物が内張されている。
図7に示す第3の実施形態では、炉蓋13が炉壁12の側方に移動した状態では、炉壁12の上方に開放部が形成され、この開放部がスラグ投入口14となる。
また、図2~図5では電気炉1として据置式の直流電流炉を、図6および図7では傾動式の直流電流炉を例示しているが、交流電流炉を用いてもよい。
電気炉1の中央には、上部電極15と炉底電極16が上下に対向配置されている。上部電極15と炉底電極16に直流電圧を印加し、上部電極15と炉底電極16の間でアーク放電を発生させることで、溶融スラグ4を還元するのに必要なエネルギーが供給される。
炉壁12には還元材投入ノズル33が形成されている。還元材投入ノズル33は、溶融スラグ4の還元処理に必要な還元材および改質材等の副原料を供給する装置である。還元材は、コークス粉、無煙炭粉、グラファイト粉などの粉状の炭材が用いられる。還元材は、スラグフォーミングが発生した場合の抑制手段でもある。改質材は、主にスラグ中のSiO2、またはAl2O3濃度を調整するものであり、珪砂、フライアッシュ、廃耐火物粉などを使用できる。還元材投入ノズル33はスラグフォーミングが発生した場合の抑制手段でもある。還元材投入ノズル33は炉壁12と炉蓋13の両方に形成されてもよい。
炉蓋13には排気ダクトであるダクト32が設けられている。
浅底部11aは、溶融スラグ4または凝固スラグ塊4aを電気炉1に装入する際には、溶鉄層6の表面から露出していることを想定して、炉壁12に寄せて設置されている。スラグ処理中においては、溶融スラグと一緒に電気炉に溶銑または溶鋼が装入されることがあるほか、スラグ還元に伴って溶銑が生成されるために、溶鉄層6の高さが上昇する。ある程度以上に溶鉄層が厚くなったら、溶鉄を排出する出湯口18を開けて溶鉄層6の高さを低下させるので、低下した後の期間には浅底部11aを溶鉄層6から露出させて、その状態で次に還元処理する溶融スラグを電気炉1内へ装入することを想定している。但し、浅底部11aが溶鉄層6から露出していないと、溶融スラグを装入することができないわけではなく、溶鉄層の高さが浅底部11aの上ではある程度以上低ければ、装入された溶融スラグ4と溶鉄層6との激しい混合は抑制されるので、本発明の目的を達成することができる。
浅底部11aは、例えば、炉底11が階段状に浅くなることによって形成される。浅底部11aは、他の部分の炉底11の内面と同様に耐火物によって構成される。炉蓋13にはスラグ投入口14が形成される。
なお、本発明では浅底部11aを「深底部11dの最深部に対する高さHが150mm以上、500mm以下の領域」と定義しているため、S1とS2の境界は深底部11dの最深部に対する高さHが150mmの位置である。
さらに、浅底部11aを有することにより、浅底部11aを有しない構造と比べて、溶融スラグ4または凝固スラグ塊4aの投入速度を早くできるため、スラグ投入時に炉を開放する時間を短くできる。よって、炉内を密閉した状態で還元雰囲気に保つことができる時間も長くなり、還元率を上昇させられる効果もある。
第2の実施形態は、第1の実施形態において、電気炉を傾動炉としたものである。
なお、第2の実施形態において、第1の実施形態と同様の機能を果たす要素については、同一の番号を付し、主に第1の実施形態と異なる部分について説明する。
電気炉1aは、電気炉1aを傾動させる図示しない傾動部と、炉壁12の、深底部11dよりも高い位置に設けられ、傾動によって溶融スラグ4を排出する出滓口17と、出滓口17に正対する位置にあって、深底部11dの延長上に設けられ、傾動によって溶鉄層6中の溶鉄を排出する炉底出湯口18aを有する。
このように、電気炉1は傾動炉であってもよい。
第3の実施形態は、第2の実施形態において、炉蓋13を、炉壁12の上端と炉壁12の側方の間を移動可能にしたものである。
なお、第3の実施形態において、第1の実施形態と同様の機能を果たす要素については同一の番号を付し、主に第1の実施形態と異なる部分について説明する。
炉蓋13が炉壁12の上端に位置した状態では、図2と同様に電気炉1の内部は密閉されている。
炉蓋13が炉壁12の側方に移動した状態では、図7に示すように炉壁12の上方に開放部が形成され、この開放部がスラグ投入口14となる。
このように、スラグ投入口14は必ずしも炉蓋13に設ける必要はなく、炉蓋13を炉壁12に対して移動させることにより、開放部を形成してスラグ投入口14とすることもできる。
まず汎用流体解析ソフトFLUENT(登録商標)を用いて、以下の条件の電気炉に溶融スラグ4を注入して、その挙動を炉の軸断面方向から観察した。
炉の容積:13.8m3
炉底面積(S1+S2):7.5m2
炉内スラグ粘度:0.25Pa・s
注入スラグ粘度:1.0Pa・s
溶鉄粘度:0.006Pa・s
浅底部の高さ(H):250mm
浅底部の面積(S2):1.1m2
種湯量:1.4m3
注入スラグ流の幅:500mm
スラグ注入速度:1t/min、5t/min、10t/min、20t/min
図8に示すように、スラグ注入速度が1t/minの場合は、浅底部11aが無い場合でも注入された溶融スラグ4がほとんど溶鉄層6に達しておらず、注入されたスラグと溶鉄層との反応は僅かしか認められなかった。
スラグ注入速度が5t/min、10t/min、20t/minの場合は、浅底部11aが無い場合には注入された溶融スラグ4が溶鉄層6に達して、一部は溶鉄層中に突入し溶鉄中のCと反応する様が予見された。特に10t/min、20t/minでは、反応が激しく、溶鉄と溶融スラグとが混合して飛び散ると分かった。
一方で、浅底部11aがある場合は、スラグ注入速度が10t/minでも、注入された溶融スラグ4がほとんど溶鉄層6とは反応せず、したがって溶鉄と溶融スラグ4との混合物が飛び散ることも無いと考えられた。
この結果から、浅底部11aを設けることにより、注入された溶融スラグ4が溶鉄層6と混合して、激しく反応することを防止できることが分かった。
次に、還元改質装置として、図2から図5に示す電気炉1を用いて、図9に示す条件で実操業を行った。具体的な手順は以下の通りである。
まず、電気炉1として、炉内径6mの密閉型据置式の直流電気炉で、水冷炉蓋の一部に、溶融スラグ4および凝固スラグ塊4aの投入用の、開閉式のスラグ投入ドア14aを具備する、スラグ投入口14を有しているものを用意した。
電気炉1には、スラグ投入口14の直下に、炉底最深部からの高さが450mmの耐火物の、浅底部11aを設けた。浅底部11aの形状は一端を炉壁12に接し、炉内は矩形をした耐火物製ブロックである。炉底に対する浅底部11aの平面視における面積率は10%とした。炉蓋13には排ガス排出用のダクト32を設け、ダクト32を可燃性ガス燃焼冷却集塵装置に接続した。
出湯口18の下端は炉底最深部から250mmの高さに、また出滓口17の下端は炉底最深部から450mmの高さに設定した。
この時点(スラグ投入前)の炉内残留物は、[C]2.6%の溶鉄54tと、(T.Fe)1%まで還元された溶融スラグ25tであった。
溶融スラグ4の投入開始から、炉蓋13の還元材投入ノズル33を通して60kg/分でコークス粉を供給し、溶融スラグ4の投入開始から50分間でコークス粉3.0tの供給を完了した。
凝固スラグ塊4aの投入後は速やかにスラグ投入ドア14aを閉め、炉内の密閉性を確保して、還元ガス雰囲気下でコークス粉投入によるスラグ還元処理を行った。
この間、スラグの塩基度((CaO)/(SiO2))を、適正レベルの1.2まで低減するために、還元材投入ノズル33から珪砂を6.5t供給した。
全処理完了後、開口機を用いて出滓口を開口し、還元スラグを炉外に23t排出し、マッドガンで閉孔した。
還元改質装置として、図2~図5に示す電気炉1を用い、図10に示すように、実施例1と異なる条件で操業を行った。具体的な手順は以下の通りである。
還元改質装置として、図6に示す電気炉1aを用いて図9に示すように、実施例1と同様の条件で操業を行った。具体的な手順は以下の通りである。
電気炉1aには、スラグ投入口14の直下に、炉底最深部からの高さ450mmの耐火物の浅底部11aを設けた。浅底部11aの形状は一端を炉壁12に接し、炉内は矩形をした耐火物製ブロックである。炉底11に対する浅底部11aの平面視における面積率は10%とした。また炉蓋13にはスラグ投入口14のほかに排ガス排出用のダクト32を設け、可燃性ガス燃焼冷却集塵装置へと接続した。
この時点(スラグ投入前)の炉内残留物は、[C]2.6%の溶鉄54tと、(T.Fe)1%まで還元された溶融スラグ25tであった。
次に、炉蓋13のスラグ投入ドア14aを開け、転炉から搬送された20tの溶融スラグ4を電気炉1aに投入した。投入条件およびスラグの組成は実施例1と同じである。
溶融スラグ4の投入開始から、炉蓋13の還元材投入ノズル33を通して実施例1と同じ条件でコークスの投入、凝固スラグ塊4aの投入、珪砂の供給を行った。
コークス粉投入完了から10分間の鎮静時間を経て、溶融スラグ装入開始から60分後にスラグ中(T.Fe)は1%以下まで下げることができた。
溶融スラグ4と凝固スラグ塊4aの投入量がトータル120tに達したところで、炉底出湯口18aを開口して溶鉄を27t排出し、炉内に54tの溶鉄を残した。出銑前のメタルレベルの推定高さは炉底11から450mmであったが、排出後は300mmまで低下した。
