Description

Heating method of glass batch
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of glass manufacturing, in particular to a method for heating glass batch.
Background
When refractory glass such as high alumina glass, high borosilicate glass and microcrystalline glass is produced, the melting and clarification of the glass are very difficult and need to be solved by increasing the melting temperature, adopting a special melting mode and adding a clarifying agent into glass batch. The increase of the melting temperature can aggravate the burning loss degree of flame to the breast wall, crown and the like in the glass kiln, so that the service life of the glass kiln is reduced; the special melting mode can reduce the safety of the glass kiln; the addition of fining agents increases the glass production cost.
Meanwhile, because the melting temperature of the refractory glass is high, and the combustion spray guns are alternately combusted, in order to ensure the stability of the temperature of the glass liquid, the length of combustion flame exceeds the central area of the glass melting tank, so that the flames on two sides cover the central area of the glass liquid, the flames seriously scour and burn the breast wall and crown of the area, and the service life of the glass kiln is greatly reduced. In addition, the central area of the molten glass is repeatedly heated, and the temperature difference between the central area and the peripheral area is large, so that the molten glass is not uniformly mixed, the melting quality is poor, the produced glass has a plurality of defects, and the quality of a glass product is influenced.
When the volatile glass is produced, such as borate glass, phosphate glass and high-alkali silicate glass, raw materials which are easy to volatilize exist in the raw material composition of the glass, and in the heating and melting process, because the existing glass kiln can repeatedly heat the central area of the melting tank, the temperature of the area is high, the volatilization quantity of the volatile glass raw materials is increased, the content of the volatile raw materials in the glass product cannot meet the design requirements, and the quality of the glass is influenced. In order to ensure the content of the volatile raw materials in the finally formed glass product, the dosage of the volatile raw materials can only be increased in the batching process before melting so as to compensate the volatile amount of the raw materials during melting. Not only can increase the raw materials cost like this, volatile raw materials get into the flue gas after volatilizing, still can lead to solid particle's concentration to increase in the flue gas, cause the jam of exhaust fume channel, increase the load that the flue gas removed dust, improve glass's preparation cost.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims at the technical defects in the prior art, and provides a method for heating glass batch with reduced glass preparation cost on the premise of ensuring the quality of glass products, wherein a glass kiln is used for heating and melting the glass batch into molten glass in the process of heating and melting the glass batch, the glass kiln comprises a kiln side wall, a melting tank and a crown positioned above the melting tank and forming the top of the glass kiln, a plurality of combustion spray guns are arranged at the bottom of the melting tank, and the combustion spray guns are not arranged on the side wall of the glass kiln;
the heating process is as follows: and controlling fuel in a combustion spray gun at the bottom of the melting tank to combust, and spraying vertical upward flame to heat and melt the glass batch in the melting tank into molten glass.
The heating process specifically comprises the following steps: controlling all combustion spray guns at the bottom of the melting tank to be started simultaneously for combustion; meanwhile, the flame height of the combustion spray gun is adjusted to be not more than 3/4 of the set depth of the molten glass; the vertical upward flame heats and melts the glass batch in the melting tank into molten glass.
The fuel in the combustion lance is selected from natural gas, liquefied gas or heavy oil.
And the combustion-supporting medium in the combustion spray gun is oxygen.
The combustion dosage of the combustion spray gun is 30-150Nm 3 /h。
And the gun head of the combustion spray gun faces the direction of the glass liquid surface line and is vertical to the glass liquid surface line.
The combustion spray gun is 4-9 pieces/m 2 The area of the bottom of the melting tank is arranged.
The interval between two adjacent combustion spray guns is 40-90cm; preferably, the distance between the combustion spray gun and the wall of the melting tank is more than or equal to 30cm.
The ratio of the height of the crown in the glass kiln in the vertical direction to the width of the crown in the horizontal direction is 1/10-1/6.
A smoke outlet is arranged at the upper part of one side of the wall of the melting tank; preferably, the area of the smoke outlet is 1/20-1/10 of the melting size of the kiln.
The invention provides a heating method of glass batch, which sprays flame from the bottom of a melting tank, and the flame burns and heats the glass batch upwards to melt the glass batch into molten glass. Because the flame directly heats the glass batch in the glass batch, the heat conduction from top to bottom is avoided, the temperature above the glass liquid is reduced, the volatilization amount of the volatile raw material at the position can be reduced for the volatile glass, and the content of each element in the finally formed glass product is ensured within the design range. Because the volatilization amount of the raw materials is reduced, the addition amount of the volatile raw materials does not need to be increased, and the preparation cost of the glass is reduced; and the amount of the volatilized raw materials entering the flue gas is reduced, the concentration of solid particles in the flue gas is reduced, and the load of flue gas dust removal is reduced. For the refractory glass, because the flame is in the glass batch, the combustion product is also generated in the glass batch, the combustion product is beneficial to the clarification of the molten glass, the addition of the clarifying agent can be reduced, even the clarifying agent is not added, and the preparation cost of the glass can be reduced on the premise of ensuring the melting clarification quality of the molten glass.
Meanwhile, in the heating method, because the flame is in the molten glass rather than above the molten glass level, a combustion system, a regenerator, a port furnace and the like do not need to be arranged on the breast wall, the heights of the breast wall and the crown can be reduced, and the structure of the glass kiln is more compact; and the flame space above the glass liquid level does not need to be burnt, so that the flame scouring and burning loss degree of the breast wall and the crown is greatly reduced, and the service life of the glass kiln is prolonged; moreover, the refractory grade of the refractory materials used by the breast wall and the crown can be reduced, and the investment cost and the operation and maintenance cost of the glass kiln are reduced.
In addition, the glass liquid is not in a repeatedly heated area, the integral temperature difference of the glass liquid is small, the glass liquid is mixed more uniformly, the melting quality is high, the defects of the produced glass are few, and the yield of glass products is improved.

Detailed Description
The existing glass kiln mainly uses air as combustion-supporting gas and comprises opposite side walls (namely a breast wall); a crown (i.e. crown) arranged at the top of the side wall and used for connecting the opposite side walls so as to form the top of the glass furnace; and a melting tank arranged at the bottom in the kiln and used for containing molten glass. When the existing glass kiln heats glass batch, air preheated to a certain temperature (generally less than 1000 ℃) by the regenerator at the side is discharged into the glass kiln through the small grate and meets fuel in a flame space, high temperature is generated by combustion, combustion products (namely smoke) enter the regenerator at the opposite side through the smoke outlet arranged on the side wall and then are discharged through the flue, heat in the smoke is stored by the checker bricks of the regenerator at the opposite side, the air for supporting combustion enters the regenerator at the side after the smoke is discharged through the flue, the heat collected in the smoke is used for preheating combustion-supporting air by the checker bricks of the regenerator, the preheated air is discharged into the glass kiln through the small grate at the side and meets the fuel in the flame space, high temperature is generated by combustion, and the combustion products enter the regenerator at the opposite side through the smoke outlet arranged on the side wall and then are discharged through the flue. The glass kiln combustion system heats the glass batch in the melting tank in the kiln through circulating combustion in such a way, so that the glass batch is melted into molten glass.
In the heating process of the existing glass kiln, combustion spray guns are arranged on the side walls (and are symmetrically arranged), the combustion spray guns are distributed on the opposite side walls in pairs, and the gun heads face a glass melting pool. The combustion spray gun usually adopts a reversing combustion mode, namely, the combustion spray gun at one side (as a normal combustion side) is firstly opened, the combustion spray gun at the other side (at the moment, the upper part of the molten glass at the position is not covered by flame and is used as a flameless combustion side) is closed, and the glass melting tank is heated for a period of time; then, reversing, namely: closing the combustion spray gun at one side, opening the combustion spray gun at the other side, repeating the steps, generally heating for about 20-30min, and reversing once; the normal combustion side is responsible for heating the molten glass, and the flameless combustion side is responsible for discharging combustion products generated by combustion at the normal combustion side out of the glass furnace, and is also called as the smoke generation side. After the combustion spray gun on one side is started, the side is covered by flame, the temperature of the kiln on the side is rapidly increased, and the temperature of the kiln on the other side is slowly increased due to no flame covering, so that the temperature distribution of the kiln is uneven; in order to ensure the temperature stability of the glass liquid, the length of the combustion flame is required to be longer and exceeds the central area of the glass melting tank, so that the flame on two sides covers the central area of the glass liquid, the temperature difference between the central area of the kiln and the peripheral area of the kiln is increased, and the temperature distribution of the kiln is also uneven. The temperature of the furnace is unevenly distributed, so that the temperature difference of molten glass in different areas of the melting tank is large, the molten glass formed after the glass batch is melted is unevenly mixed, the melting quality of the glass is affected, and the produced glass has more defects; meanwhile, the reaction speed of nitrogen and oxygen at high temperature is accelerated due to large temperature difference, and the amount of generated nitrogen oxides is increased, so that NO is generated X The emission concentration and the total amount of emission increase.
Meanwhile, the flame for heating is above the liquid level of the molten glass, the molten glass at the liquid level is directly heated, and the heat is transferred to the molten glass at the bottom by the molten glass at the upper part; in order to ensure that the temperature of the bottom glass metal can reach the melting temperature, the temperature of the upper glass metal is much higher than that of the bottom glass metal, so that the volatilization amount of the volatile raw materials in the upper glass metal is increased, the addition amount of the volatile raw materials needs to be increased to compensate the volatilization amount during batching, and the glass preparation cost is increased; the volatilized glass raw materials are discharged along with the flue gas, so that the load of flue gas treatment is increased.
In addition, the combustion spray guns on both sides are in a closed state within 30s-2min between each reversing in the heating process, namely, no flame is burnt on both sides, so that the temperature of the side wall and the crown is suddenly increased or decreased sometimes, the refractory bricks forming the side wall and the crown are easy to burst, and the service life of the glass kiln is shortened.
On the basis, the invention provides a heating method of glass batch, which melts the glass batch into molten glass. In the heating method, the combustion spray gun is arranged at the bottom of the melting tank, and the fuel spraying speed (namely the fuel consumption) in the combustion spray gun is adjusted to realize the combustion of flame in the glass batch, heat the glass batch in the glass batch and avoid the continuous heating of the central area of the liquid level of the glass liquid, thereby realizing the continuous heating of NO in the flue gas of the glass kiln X Significant reduction in emission concentration and total amount of emissions.
For volatile glass, the product of the volatile glass needs to contain diboron trioxide (B) 2 O 3 ) Phosphorus pentoxide (P) 2 O 5 ) Sodium oxide (Na) 2 O), potassium oxide (K) 2 0) Lithium oxide (Li) 2 O), etc., and therefore boric acid, borax, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, sodium carbonate, sodium nitrate, potassium carbonate, potassium nitrate, lithium carbonate, etc., which can provide these substances, need to be incorporated into the glass batch as a glass raw material. The glass raw materials have the volatile property, and the existing glass kiln is adopted for heating, so that a large amount of volatile raw materials are volatilized due to overhigh local temperature, the composition and the content of elements in the finally obtained glass product are changed, the design requirement cannot be met, and the yield of the glass product is seriously influenced.
Because the flame is in the glass liquid, the heat is conducted horizontally or from bottom to top in the glass liquid, but not from the upper glass liquid to the lower glass liquid, the temperature difference in the glass liquid is small, the glass liquid is mixed uniformly, the melting quality is high, the defects of the produced glass are few, and the yield of the glass product is improved. Although the volatile raw materials are volatilized in a heat conduction mode between the glass liquids, the volatile raw materials are conducted to the upper glass liquid in the process of volatilizing from bottom to top in a bubble mode, so that the temperature of the bubbles is reduced, the bubbles are cooled to be lower than the volatilization temperature, and the bubbles are condensed to be in a liquid state and are remained in the glass liquid, and the volatilization amount of the raw materials is reduced. When the glass raw materials contain the volatile raw materials, the volatilization amount of the volatile raw materials at normal melting and clarification temperature is considered in the usage amount of the glass batch when the usage amount of the raw materials is designed, and the designed element composition and content can be maintained in the prepared glass product as long as the condition that the volatilization acceleration of the volatile raw materials does not occur is ensured.
For refractory glasses, additional fining agents and/or increased melting temperatures are required to solve the problem of melting and fining difficulties. According to the invention, the glass batch is heated in a way of spraying flame from the bottom of the melting tank, and is used as a combustion way (called bottom burning for short) of the glass kiln, and combustion products (carbon dioxide and water vapor) in the way are gaseous and can volatilize from the inside of molten glass to the space of the kiln above the liquid level of the molten glass in a bubble form, and the process of discharging the combustion products from bottom to top from the molten glass can clarify the molten glass, so that the clarification and foaming discharge process of the molten glass can be accelerated, the melting and clarification quality is improved, the defects of the produced glass are reduced, and the yield of the glass product is improved; the addition amount of the clarifying agent can be reduced, even the clarifying agent is not added, and the preparation cost of the glass is reduced.
In the bottom burning mode provided by the invention, the periphery of the flame is molten glass, all heat is directly conducted to the molten glass (only the molten glass is arranged below the flame in the original glass kiln, the heat in other directions is not directly conducted to the molten glass, the heat conduction efficiency is low), and the fuel burning effect is achievedThe rate is improved; because of the adoption of oxy-fuel combustion and the little contact between fuel and air, NO in the combustion products X 、SO X And the concentration of dust and the like is reduced.
The flame does not need to be reversed in the heating process, so that the problem of flying glass batch materials caused by flame reversing can be avoided (when the flame in the original glass kiln is reversed, the flame can scour the uppermost glass batch materials, so that the glass batch materials are suspended in the air and taken away by smoke). In addition, because the condition of flame reversing does not exist, the flame in the glass kiln is continuously combusted, the temperature in the glass kiln can be maintained to be stable, the refractory bricks of the side wall, the crown and the like cannot be damaged by sudden temperature rise and drop, the flame is in the molten glass, the burning loss caused by the fact that the flame scours the side wall and the crown is avoided, and the service life of the glass kiln is prolonged.
The present invention will be described more specifically and further illustrated with reference to specific examples, which are by no means intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

A fuel inlet and an oxygen inlet are arranged at the gun tail of the combustion spray gun 6, the fuel and the oxygen meet at the gun head of the combustion spray gun, flame is generated by combustion, and the glass batch is heated and melted into molten glass. The combustion spray gun is generally arranged according to the area of the bottom 9 of the melting tank, and 4-9 pieces/m 2 The distance between two adjacent spray guns is 40-90cm, and the distance between the combustion spray gun and the melting pool wall 3 is more than or equal to 30cm.

The upper part of the other side (the side opposite to the side of the charging opening 2 and only on the side) of the melting tank wall 3 is provided with a smoke outlet 4, and the lower part is provided with a throat 5. The area of the smoke outlet 4 is 1/20-1/10 of the melting size of the kiln (the melting size of the kiln is the product of the length and the width of the kiln), and the smoke outlet 4 is square, so that the smoke outlet 4 is favorable for building and maintaining. The wall and the bottom of the melting tank are both made of No. 33 AZS fused refractory (fused ZrO) without shrinkage cavity 2 -Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 Material of which ZrO 2 The mass percentage of the refractory material is 33%, shrinkage-hole-free pouring refers to a pouring method of an electric melting refractory material, the structure is compact and uniform, the pouring method is purchased from Henan Ruitake practical company, 41# shrinkage-hole-free pouring AZS electric melting refractory material (purchased from Henan Ruitake practical company, inc.) is adopted around a combustion spray gun, and 33# common pouring AZS electric melting refractory material (purchased from Henan Ruitake practical company, inc.) is adopted for a crown 1 of a glass kiln.
