Description

Verfahren zur Eisenerzreduktion Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Eisenerzreduktion.Process for Iron Ore Reduction The present invention relates to on a process for iron ore reduction.

Es sind bereits Verfahren zur Eisenerzreduktion bekannt, bei denen ein Kohlenwasserstoff in gasförmigem Zustand mit dem Eisenoxyd zur Reaktion gebracht wird. Die Reaktion läuft hierbei unter Mitwirkung von Katalysatoren ab. Als Katalysator kann beispielsweise das bei der Reaktion entstehende schwammförmige Eisen dienen. Dieses Verfahren hat den Nachteil, daß es erforderlich ist, zur Einleitung der Reaktion Eisenschwamm zu verwenden, der leicht der Gefahr unterliegt, daß sich im Laufe der Reaktion so schnell Katalysatorengifte bilden, daß die Wirksamkeit des Katalysators das Fortschreiten des Reduktionsvorganges bei den in Frage stehenden Temperaturen, die relativ niedrig sind, nicht mehr gewährleistet.There are already methods for iron ore reduction known in which a hydrocarbon in a gaseous state reacted with the iron oxide will. The reaction takes place with the help of catalysts. As a catalyst For example, the spongy iron formed during the reaction can be used. This method has the disadvantage that it is necessary to initiate the reaction To use sponge iron, which is easily subject to the risk of being in the course of Reaction so quickly forms catalyst poisons that the effectiveness of the catalyst the progress of the reduction process at the temperatures in question, which are relatively low are no longer guaranteed.

Die vorliegende Erfindung dient zur Vermeidung der Nachteile der vorgenannten bekannten Verfahren. Sie ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß das Eisenerz mit einem flüssigen Kohlenwasserstoff oder einem Gemisch von flüssigen Kohlenwasserstoffen vermischt, danach das Gemisch gezündet und mit oder ohne Zufuhur von Luft, Sauerstoff oder anderen Oxydationsmitteln in einem geeigneten Behälter, Hochofen od. dgl. einem Reduktionsvorgang unterzogen wird.The present invention serves to avoid the disadvantages of the aforementioned known procedures. It is characterized in that the iron ore with a liquid hydrocarbon or a mixture of liquid hydrocarbons mixed, then ignited the mixture and with or without supply of air, oxygen or other oxidizing agents in a suitable container, blast furnace or the like Is subjected to reduction process.

Die Erfinder haben bewußt jede Anwendung von Katalysatoren vermieden, die die betriebstechnische und wirtschaftliche Durchführung des Verfahrens gefährden. Durch die Vermischung des Eisenerzes mit einem flüssigen Kohlenwasserstoff und der danach erfolgenden Zündung dieses Gemisches werden Reduktionstemperaturen erzeugt, die das chemische Gleichgewicht eindeutig zugunsten einer vollständigen Reduktion des Erzes verschieben, so daß quantitativ das Erz zu Metall reduziert wird. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ist also von der Funktionsfähigkeit irgendwelcher katalytischen Substanzen völlig unabhängig.The inventors have deliberately avoided any use of catalysts, which endanger the operational and economic implementation of the process. By mixing the iron ore with a liquid hydrocarbon and the subsequent ignition of this mixture, reduction temperatures are generated, which the chemical equilibrium clearly in favor of a complete reduction move the ore so that the ore is quantitatively reduced to metal. That The method according to the invention is therefore of the functionality of any catalytic Substances completely independent.

Ein Kracken der Kohlenwasserstoffe findet beim erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren nicht statt. Die Kohlenwasserstoffe werden vielmehr zu Kohlenoxyd bzw. Kohlendioxyd verbrannt, was dadurch geschieht, daß zunächst von außen Sauerstoff zugeführt wird und beim Erreichen genügend hoher Temperaturen (oberhalb der Reduktionstemperatur) die Reaktion dadurch weiterläuft, daß der für die Verbrennung erforderliche Sauerstoff dem Erz unter Reduzierung desselben entnommen wird. Ein besonderer Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens gegenüber den bekannten Verfahren, die feste Reduktionsmittel, z. B. Koks, verwenden, liegt darin, daß die Eisenerze mit den flüssigen Kohlenwasserstoffen ausgezeichnet vermischt werden können.The hydrocarbons are cracked in the process according to the invention does not take place. Rather, the hydrocarbons become carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide burned, which happens that oxygen is first supplied from the outside and when reaching sufficiently high temperatures (above the reduction temperature) the reaction continues in that the oxygen required for combustion is removed from the ore with reduction of the same. A particular advantage of the invention Process over the known processes that use solid reducing agents, e.g. B. Coke, to use, lies in the fact that the iron ores with the liquid hydrocarbons can be mixed perfectly.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der Verwendung flüssiger Reduktionsmittel während der Vorbereitung ist, daß im Gegensatz zu den üblichen Reduktionsmitteln die flüssigen Anteile bereits in weitestem Maße in die Poren der Erze eindringen und somit bei Vorliegen der erforderlichen Reaktionsbedingungen zu einer schnelleren und unmittelbar einsetzenden Reduktion der Erze führen.Another advantage of using liquid reducing agents during The preparation is that, in contrast to the usual reducing agents, the liquid ones Fractions already penetrate into the pores of the ores to the greatest possible extent and thus with The necessary reaction conditions are present more quickly and immediately the onset of a reduction in ores.
