Description
Title of Invention: AGGLOMERATED ORE ASSESSING METHOD AND AGGLOMERATED ORE
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an agglomerated ore assessing method for assessing clustering of agglomerated ore, and to agglomerated ore.
Background Art
[0002] Global warming due to increasing C02 has been widely taken up as an international issue, and reducing C02 emissions has become a challenge facing the entire world. Of about 1.9 billion tons of crude steel produced worldwide, about 1.4 billion tons are produced by a blast furnace-converter method. Because coal is used in the blast furnace-converter method, as large an amount of
C02 as 2t-CO2/t-Fe is emitted. The remaining 0.5 billion tons or so are produced by a method other than the blast furnace-converter method: a direct reduction process. A shaft furnace solid reduction + electric furnace method represented by MIDREX @ that accounts for 60% or more of the direct-reduction process can reduce C02 emissions to about 1.1 to 1.2 t-C02/t-Fe. To reduce
C02 emissions from the iron industry, it is necessary to shift from the blast
furnace-converter method to the direct-reduction process, and further to increase the ratio of hydrogen reduction.
[0003] Raw materials used in the direct-reduction process tend to be of high iron grade compared with those in the blast furnace-converter method. In particular, for reduction in a shaft furnace, pellets of uniform particle size are used as the raw material to secure gas permeability inside the furnace. It is known that, when reduction progresses and the raw material descends down the furnace, clustering occurs in which reduced iron particles adhere to one another under the load of the raw material accumulated at a high-temperature area in front of a tuyere at a lower part of the shaft furnace. Occurrence of clustering is problematic because it prevents the reduced iron from being discharged from the shaft furnace. To prevent clustering, it is important to manage the properties of the raw material charged into the shaft furnace.
[0004] To what extent an agglomerated raw material adheres during reduction has been hitherto assessed by the MIDREX hot load test described in Non-Patent Literature 1. According to Non-Patent Literature 1, 2000 g of a sample is charged into a furnace, where it is reduced to a degree of reduction of 95% in an isothermal environment of 850°C with a gas composed of 45% H 2
+ 30% CO + 15% C02 + 10%N 2 flowing at40L/min. Sixty minutes after the start of reduction, a load of 147 kPa is applied to the surface of the charged bed of the sample. After cooling, a cluster formed during reduction is rotated ten times by a one-meter tumbler test machine, and then the ratio of particles 25 mm and over, which are defined as a cluster, is assessed as a cluster index.

Zhu, "Quality requirements of iron ore for iron production" Iron Ore, Elsevier Ltd., p.475-504 Non-Patent Literature 2: Dentaro Kaneko and two others, "Clustering Phenomena during Iron Oxide Reduction in Shaft Furnace" Tetsu-to-Hagan6, the 64th year (1978), No. 6, p. 6 8 1 - 6 9 0
Summary of Invention Technical Problem
[0006] The cluster assessing method described in Non-Patent Literature 1, in which the gas contains CO and C02, cannot sufficiently assess the aggregability of a charged material when it has been reduced with pure hydrogen. This method may fail to assess disintegratability in the case where clustering of a material charged in a furnace is intensified as reduction is completed earlier and yields a larger amount of metallic iron due to a higher reaction rate of hydrogen reduction. When gas components include CO and C02, reduced iron becomes carburized and less prone to clustering (FIG. 6 of Non-Patent Literature 2). With clustering thus reduced, the conventional assessment method may fail to accurately assess a clustering phenomenon inside a hydrogen-reduction shaft furnace.
[00071 In reduction of iron oxide, CO reduction is an exothermal reaction, whereas H 2 reduction is an endothermal reaction. Therefore, when CO reduction is reduced and the ratio of H 2 reduction is increased, thermal compensation in the system becomes necessary. One possible way of this thermal compensation is to increase the blowing temperature and the blowing flow rate. In this case, in front of the tuyere, particles for which reduction has been completed would be present, and particles of which the particle temperature has been raised to near the temperature of the blown gas would be present. Thus, at the point of 95% reduction in the conventional method, clustering is less likely to occur due to the reduced particle temperature as a result of heat absorption during hydrogen reduction, and to the low test temperature of 8500 C. For this reason, the conventional assessment method may fail to accurately assess clustering inside a hydrogen-reduction shaft furnace in the case where the ratio of H2 reduction is high and thermal compensation is made using blowing sensible heat.
[00081 The present invention has been devised in view of these circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an agglomerated ore assessing method that can assess clustering of reduced iron when it has been reduced at a high hydrogen concentration, with thermal compensation using blowing sensible heat taken into account, and to provide agglomerated ore based on this assessing method.
Solution to Problem
[00091 The present invention is an agglomerated ore assessing method characterized in that: agglomerated ore is reduced while being subjected to a predetermined load at 1000°C to 1200 0 C, both inclusive, to produce a reduced aggregate; a tumble treatment is performed on the reduced aggregate using a tumble tester; cluster strength CS of the reduced aggregate calculated by Formula (1) below is measured; and a clustering property of the agglomerated ore is assessed using the cluster strength CS: CS = (W'/W) x 100 ... (1), where CS is cluster strength (mass%); W is the mass (g) of a reduced aggregate that is equal to or larger than a maximum particle diameter of the agglomerated ore; and W' is the mass (g) of a reduced aggregate after a tumble treatment in the tumble tester that is equal to or larger than the maximum particle diameter of the agglomerated ore.
[0010] In the agglomerated ore assessing method according to the present invention configured as described above, the following are considered to be more preferable solutions: (1) that the reduced aggregate is produced using a reducing gas that does not contain a compound having a C atom; and (2) that the reduced aggregate is produced using a reducing gas containing 70 vol% or more H 2 .
[0011] Further, the present invention is agglomerated ore characterized in that cluster strength CS3o is 0 mass% as measured in the above-described agglomerated ore assessing method using the reduced aggregate having been reduced at 1000°C and a reduced aggregate after the tumble treatment obtained by rotating the reduced aggregate 30 times at 30 rpm.
[0012] In the agglomerated ore according to the present invention configured as described above, the following are considered to be more preferable solutions: (1) that the particle diameter is 8 mm or larger; (2) that the total Fe is 64.5 mass% or less; and (3) that Formula (2) below is met: A12 0 3 + SiO 2 > 3.5 mass% --- (2), where A12 0 3 is the component concentration (mass%) of A1 2 0 3 in the agglomerated ore, and SiO 2 is the component concentration (mass%) of SiO 2 in the agglomerated ore.
Advantageous Effects of Invention
[0013] According to the present invention configured as described above, an agglomerated ore assessing method can be obtained that assesses clustering at a higher temperature than the conventional method, and can thereby assess clustering of agglomerated ore taking into account thermal compensation that is made using blowing sensible heat in hydrogen reduction. Thus, it is possible to accurately assess clustering inside a shaft furnace and obtain agglomerated ore having favorable characteristics based on the assessment method of the present invention.

Description of Embodiment
[0015] An embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described below. The following embodiment illustrates a device and a method for embodying the technical idea of the present invention, and is not intended to restrict the configuration to the one described below. Thus, various changes can be made to the technical idea of the present invention within the technical scope described in the claims.
[0016] <Agglomerated Ore Assessing Method of Embodiment> Regarding an agglomerated ore assessing method of this embodiment, a specific assessment method will be described below. First, 500 g ±5 g of an agglomerated ironmaking raw material (agglomerated ore) is put through a sieve to measure a particle size distribution and determine the maximum particle size of the agglomerated ore. Then, the agglomerated ore is placed in an N 2 atmosphere and heated to a temperature of 10000Cat50C/min. (This temperature is a predetermined temperature between 1000°C and 1200°C, which is 1000°C here.) Meanwhile, a load is gradually applied such that a load of1 kg/cm2 is applied when 1000°C is reached. Then, while a load of 1 kg/cm2 is still applied at 10000C, the gas is switched to an N 2 20 vol% H 2 gas, and the agglomerated ore is held for three hours with this gas flowing at a flow rate of 24 L/min. Then, the atmosphere is switched to an N 2 atmosphere and the agglomerated ore is cooled to room temperature. Thus, a reduced aggregate is produced.
[0017] Next, the reduced aggregate is sifted using a sieve with an opening size corresponding to the maximum particle diameter of the agglomerated ore before reduction, and the reduced aggregate on the sieve and the reduced aggregate under the sieve are weighed. Here, the mass of the reduced aggregate on the sieve is denoted by W(g). Then, the reduced aggregate on the sieve is transferred to an I-type tumble tester (132 mmp x 700 mm) and rotated 30 times at 30 rpm. Then, the reduced aggregate taken out is put through the same sieve, and the reduced aggregate on the sieve and the reduced aggregate under the sieve are weighed. Here, the mass of the reduced aggregate on the sieve is denoted by
W'3o(g). Thereafter, using the obtained W and W' 3 0, cluster strength CS3o (mass%) is measured from Formula (3) below:
CS 3 o = (W' 30/W) x 100 --- (3)
[0018] The rpm and the number of times of rotation of the I-type tumble tester may be adjusted as necessary according to the impact applied to the sintered ore in the shaft furnace used for reduction. When cluster strength in the case where treatment is performed at the rpm and the number of times of rotation corresponding to the impact is denoted by CS, cluster strength CS (mass%) can be measured from Formula (1) below using the aforementioned W and the mass W' of the reduced aggregate on the sieve having undergone the tumble treatment in the I-type tumble tester: CS = (W'/W) x 100 --- (1) Thus, producing a reduced aggregate at 10000C to 1200°C, both inclusive, allows an accurate assessment of clustering in the case where hydrogen reduction is performed while thermal compensation using blowing sensible heat is made.
[00191 As mentioned above, when the gas components include a compound having a C atom, such as CO, C02, and methane, reduced iron becomes carburized and less prone to clustering. In the case of reduction using a reducing gas of which the gas concentration of a compound having a C atom is low and the H 2 concentration is increased, clustering cannot always be accurately assessed. In this embodiment, on the other hand, clustering is assessed using a reducing gas that is an N 2 -20 vol% H 2 gas and does not contain a compound having a C atom. Thus, it is possible to accurately assess clustering in the case where a reducing gas that does not contain a compound having a C atom is used. Moreover, when such a reducing gas is used, as the number of types of gases used is fewer than in the conventional method, the assessment can be conducted in a simplified manner. From this viewpoint, in the agglomerated ore assessing method of this embodiment, it is preferable that a reduced aggregate be produced using a reducing gas that does not contain a compound having a C atom. Further, it is preferable that a reduced aggregate be produced using a reducing gas containing 70 vol% or more H 2 . Thus, reduction of agglomerated ore using a reducing gas with the H 2 concentration increased to 70 vol% or more can be simulated to assess clustering in this reduction.
[0020] <Agglomerated Ore of Embodiment> Agglomerated ore of this embodiment is characterized in that cluster strength CS3O measured by the above-described agglomerated ore assessing method according to the present invention is 0 mass%. When the cluster strength CS3o is 0 mass%, the agglomerated ore is found to have favorable disintegratability at high temperatures. Therefore, if this agglomerated ore is used to produce reduced iron in a shaft furnace etc., clustering can be appropriately reduced even when a reducing gas with an increased H 2 concentration is used.
[0021] In the agglomerated ore of this embodiment, it is preferable that the particle diameter of the agglomerated ore be 8 mm or larger. When the particle diameter is 8 mm or larger, the area of contact between the particles can be made smaller to further reduce clustering. Here, a particle diameter of 8 mm or larger means a particle diameter of agglomerated ore that remains on a sieve with a mesh size of 8 mm. It is preferable that total Fe in the agglomerated ore be 64.5 mass% or less. Here, the total Fe refers to the component concentration (mass%) of Fe contained in metal Fe and Fe compounds (iron oxide, calcium ferrite, iron sulfide, etc.). Using an ironmaking raw material in which the total Fe is 64.5 mass% or less can further reduce clustering. In addition, it is preferable that the agglomerated ore meet Formula (2) below: A12 0 3 + SiO 2 > 3.5 mass% --- (2), where A12 0 3 is the component concentration (mass%) of A1 2 0 3 in the agglomerated ore, and SiO2 is the component concentration (mass%) of SiO 2 in the agglomerated ore.
[0022] Clustering occurs as metallic iron particles bind to one another in a solid phase. When the component concentration of gangue components, such as A12 0 3 and SiO2 , contained in the agglomerated ore increases, the iron concentration in the surfaces of reduced iron particles decreases, so that solid phase binding of metallic iron particles is reduced and clustering is thereby reduced. Thus, agglomerated ore containing a large amount of gangue components that meets A12 0 3 + SiO 2 3.5 mass% is reduced in clustering compared with conventional agglomerated ore in which A1 2 0 3 + SiO 2 < 3.5 mass% applies, and is therefore preferably used to produce hydrogen-reduced iron.
Examples
[0023] Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below. Agglomerated ores of Examples 1 to 6 and pellets of Comparative Example 1 were assessed for clustering in accordance with the above-described agglomerated ore assessing method. Table 1 below shows the sintering temperatures and the component compositions of the agglomerated ores of Examples 1 to 6 and the pellets of Comparative Example 1. As Comparative Example 1, pellets produced from a raw material that has been conventionally used was used.

[00251 For assessment of clustering, cluster strength CSo before the assessment and cluster strength CS3o after 30 rotations were obtained. CSo, which is before the tumble treatment, is 100.0 mass%. The assessment result is shown in Table 2 below and Figure 1. The reduction temperatures and the reducing gas compositions are shown in Table 2 below.

[00271 As shown in FIG. 1 and Table 2, compared with Comparative Example 1 in which cluster strength CS3o is as high as 57.0 mass%, all the agglomerated ores of Examples I to 6 that meet A1 2 0 3 + SiO 2 > 3.5 mass% have cluster strength CS3o of 0 mass% and thus have proven to have favorable disintegratability. From this result, the agglomerated ores of Examples 1 to 6 that meet A12 0 3 + SiO2 > 3.5 mass% can be said to be agglomerated ores that are less prone to clustering, and these agglomerated ores have been confirmed to be preferably used for hydrogen reduction using a shaft furnace.
Industrial Applicability
[0028] The agglomerated ore assessing method of the present invention assesses clustering at a higher temperature than the conventional method, and can thereby assess clustering of agglomerated ore taking into account thermal compensation that is made using blowing sensible heat in hydrogen reduction, which makes the present invention industrially useful. Further, clustering inside a shaft furnace can be thus accurately assessed and agglomerated ore having favorable characteristics can be obtained based on the assessment method of the present invention, which also makes the present invention industrially useful.
