Background
In the smelting (steelmaking and ironmaking) process of a blast furnace or a shaft furnace, a large amount of flue gas is inevitably generated, the harmless treatment of the flue gas is always a technical problem to be overcome in the smelting field, in addition, the flue gas also contains metal vapor, such as zinc vapor, which is repeatedly enriched in the smelting furnace to cause poor air permeability and influence the production efficiency, even the furnace is required to be shut down periodically for removing zinc, and in addition, a part of zinc is discharged along with the flue gas, and the subsequent flue gas treatment equipment is required to carry out purification treatment, so that the emission standard can be reached.
Specifically, zinc oxide or metallic zinc is contained in raw materials during smelting, the zinc oxide is reduced into the metallic zinc by reducing gas in the high-temperature smelting process, the reduced metallic zinc and the metallic zinc contained in the raw materials are gasified at high temperature to form zinc vapor, the zinc vapor is doped in flue gas and rises in a furnace along with the rise of the flue gas, the precooling temperature is continuously reduced along with the rise of the flue gas, the zinc vapor is condensed into liquid zinc or solid zinc, and then the liquid zinc or the solid zinc is repeatedly gasified and rises when the liquid zinc or the solid zinc falls to a high-temperature area at the bottom. Therefore, only a small part of zinc vapor is discharged along with the flue gas, and most of zinc vapor is repeatedly gasified and liquefied in the furnace, and because the raw materials are continuously added, the zinc vapor enriched in the furnace is more and more, so that the air permeability of the furnace burden is deteriorated, the product quality and the smelting efficiency are affected, the normal operation of the smelting furnace is even affected, the regular production and maintenance are needed, the zinc dust is removed, and the economic benefit is reduced. However, in the smelting process, the problem that zinc vapor is enriched in the furnace is not solved, so that raw materials with high zinc content cannot be used, the selection of production raw materials is greatly limited, the raw material cost is high, and the scrap steel cannot be reused in smelting.
In this regard, CN111349793a discloses a zinc recovery method and apparatus for a blast furnace or shaft furnace, in which an air outlet hole and an air return hole are formed in a furnace wall, flue gas outflow and return flow are performed by using a height pressure difference between the air outlet hole and the air return hole, and a condenser is provided between the outflow and the return flow to recover zinc. The method can recover part of enriched zinc vapor, but only the flue gas near the furnace wall can flow out through the air outlet and enter the condenser, and the flue gas flow in the middle of the furnace can directly lift up with zinc vapor and can not enter the air outlet of the furnace wall, so the technology can only partially recover zinc vapor, the recovery amount is limited, the effect of improving the furnace condition is limited, the zinc content in the flue gas suddenly increases for the waste steel raw materials with high zinc content, the timely and efficient zinc removal effect still cannot be achieved, and in addition, the zinc vapor content in the flue gas discharged from the furnace is also improved for the waste steel raw materials with high zinc content during smelting, and the flue gas treatment has great difficulty.
