Description
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of dust trapping device, more particularly, relates to the high blast furnace taphole flue gas collecting device of a kind of dust arrestment rate.
Background technology
Blast furnace is when tapping a blast furnace, and flue gas is the radioactivity lifting centered by iron notch, smelts approximately 2 kg of iron average generation flue dust per ton, simultaneously with the generation of the toxic and harmfuls such as carbon, sulphur, oxynitride in a large number, and has very strong thermal radiation.The flue dust of blast furnace iron notch has the characteristics such as temperature is high, jet power is strong, splash volume is large, the smoke granularity scope is wide, being spurting under the effect of hot pressing and furnace pressure penetrates from iron notch, and the diffusion of rising rapidly, disperse is at whole casting house, cause serious environmental pollution, simultaneously the stokehold operation is caused to seriously influence serious harm stokehold staff's life security.
At present, the common dust trapping device that adopts of domestic blast furnace iron notch mainly contains dual mode:
(1) side sucking hood is arranged in the iron notch both sides.Side sucking hood is arranged in iron notch one or both sides, as China Patent No. ZL200820114559.7, March 11 2009 Granted publication day, the utility model name is called: a kind of blast furnace taphole flue gas collecting device, this application case is included in air draft fan housing and the upper exhaust hood of a side setting of iron notch horizontal direction, opposite side in the iron notch horizontal direction arranges the isolation baffle plate, lower exhaust hood and upper exhaust hood are up and down vertical direction setting, form the smoke-collecting area of a semi closed with the tuyere platform of the top of iron notch, capture flue dust by the negative pressure gravitational attraction at place, air suction inlet.Because air port cover can not affect normal operation before tuyere platform and iron mouth, so cover body is usually less, and due to it not on the route of flue dust atural beat lifting, when fume amount is larger, spray when serious, flue dust is loose outward, poor effect; Obtain higher dust arrestment rate and need pass through larger air suction inlet negative pressure, need more energy consumption, deviate from mutually with the theme of current energy-saving and emission-reduction.
(2) the iron notch top fixed or movable formula of layout top dust hood.The top dust hood is on iron notch flue dust atural beat lifting route, and theoretical capture effect is high.But cover body is also unsuitable excessive, in order to avoid affect near the mechanical work of iron mouth, during blast furnace casting, the hot flue gas of dust-laden enters dust hood after need to walking around tuyere platform bottom, form local eddy currents below tuyere platform, flue dust is drifted about to both sides along tuyere platform, and enter in the whole process of dust excluding hood at flue dust, be vulnerable to horizontal Wind effect.Fixed top dust hood need improve capture rate by enlarging the approach such as dust hood volume or raising suction port negative pressure, it is larger that expansion dust hood volume causes institute to take up space, near the operation of the impact machinery iron mouth, improving the suction port negative pressure needs to improve the dust-removal system blower air quantity, has increased the consumption of the energy; The movable roof dust hood mainly improves capture rate by reducing the dust excluding hood position, but along with the cover body position descends, its thermal load sharply increases, and affects its work-ing life, and its structure is relatively complicated.
When blast furnace taphole taps a blast furnace, existing a large amount of flue dust produces, and also often simultaneously serious slag iron splash phenomenon occurs, and stokehold environment and stokehold staff's safety and Health is brought a lot of harm, therefore the improvement of blast furnace iron notch is demanded urgently improving.
