Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating industrial furnaces, the exhaust gases of which are burned in the exhaust pipe.
  • burner-heated melting furnaces are very often used. If, for example, cast iron is melted in a rotary drum furnace, a batch of approx. 2 to 10 t is heated to a tapping temperature of approx.
  • the rotary drum furnaces are usually heated by burners which are located on the front of the furnace and whose flame extends into the interior of the furnace. Through an opening, which is usually located on the opposite side of the burner, the exhaust gases escape from the furnace through a pipe to the chimney.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to develop an improved method for operating industrial furnaces, the exhaust gases of which are burned in the exhaust gas line, by which the above-mentioned disadvantages are avoided and, in particular, more energy-efficient furnace operation is made possible and the thermal load on the exhaust gas filters is reduced.
  • This object is achieved in that the temperature of the exhaust gas after combustion in the exhaust pipe is continuously measured and the oxygen content in the atmosphere of the industrial furnace is increased when a predetermined target value of the measured exhaust gas temperature is exceeded.
  • the measured temperature of the exhaust gas at one point in the pipe to the chimney can thus be equated with the relative CO content in the furnace atmosphere (if the H 2 content is neglected). This results in a simple and maintenance-free method for continuously monitoring the CO content inside the furnace.
  • the invention now enables for the first time the advantageous possibility of controlled combustion of the carbon monoxide released in the atmosphere of industrial furnaces. All processes in which carbon monoxide (and hydrogen) is generated in the furnace atmosphere and which is subsequently burned in the exhaust gas are considered. For the controlled combustion of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, the oxygen content in the atmosphere of the industrial furnace is increased when a predetermined target value of the measured exhaust gas temperature is exceeded.
  • the proportion of oxygen in the furnace atmosphere can be increased by direct injection into the interior of the furnace, for example via lances of oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas.
  • the oxygen can advantageously be directly be fed to the inside of the furnace via the burner. If the measured flue gas temperature exceeds the specified target value, additional oxygen is introduced into the interior of the furnace through a corresponding control system until the flue gas temperature falls below the target value again.
  • the amount of fuel that is fed to the burners can advantageously be reduced while the oxygen supply is kept constant, even if the predetermined target value of the measured exhaust gas temperature is exceeded. This results in direct fuel savings when firing the industrial furnace.
  • the suitable setpoint temperature is usefully determined by a test when the industrial furnace is started up for the first time.
  • a thermocouple can be introduced into the exhaust pipe, for example, behind the last supply opening for air or for another oxidizing agent. Then the temperature of the exhaust gas burning with the air or the oxidizing agent is determined. The respective temperature corresponds to the relative CO content plus the H 2 content inside the furnace.
  • a setpoint in the range of 120 to 650 ° C is selected. When melting cast iron, it is around 150 to 250 ° C due to the maximum temperature for the downstream filter system, depending on the pipe length of the flue gas pipes connected to the thermocouple.
  • the single drawing shows schematically a rotary drum furnace 1, the burner 2 that heats it, the lines 3 and 4 supplying the burner with oxygen and fuel, the exhaust pipe 10 and the air gaps 6 and 7 located therein. Behind the last air gap 7, a thermocouple 8 is arranged in the interior of the exhaust pipe 10, which is connected to the transducer 9.
  • the carbon contained in the feed is partially oxidized to carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide during melting by the oxygen in the furnace atmosphere, so that carburizing agents have to be added to the feed to compensate for the loss of carbon.
  • measurements of the CO content in the dry flue gas give maximum values of 35% carbon monoxide in the flue gas directly on the front of the furnace.
  • the temperature of the exhaust gas burning with air in the exhaust gas line 10 is measured by means of the thermocouple 8 and the transducer 9.
  • setpoint temperatures 150 ° C to 250 ° C are useful.
  • a setpoint temperature of 230 ° C is set on the controller (not shown). This controller is connected to a control valve in the O 2 supply line 3 to the burner 2.
  • the proportion of oxygen in the atmosphere of the furnace 1 is increased according to the invention. This is achieved by over-stoichiometric combustion of the fuel-oxygen mixture in furnace 1.
  • the oxygen supply to burner 2 increases. so that the carbon monoxide can be completely oxidized to carbon dioxide (and the hydrogen burns).
  • the energy thus far released in the exhaust gas line 10 is already released in the furnace 1 by the method according to the invention. As a result, the exhaust gas temperature drops and the control loop in turn lowers the oxygen supply to burner 2.
  • the CO combustion in rotary drum furnace 1 controlled according to the invention has several advantages:
  • the released combustion energy of the carbon monoxide can still be used in furnace 1.
  • the amount of oxygen supplied to furnace 1 is also throttled, so that burn-off of alloying elements is prevented.
  • the exhaust gas temperature is lower during the entire operation of the rotary drum furnace 1, so that the filters are no longer thermally overloaded.
  • the exhaust gas volume becomes lower since the carbon monoxide in the furnace 1 is burned with oxygen instead of air in the exhaust pipes 10.
  • the method according to the invention uses a simple temperature measurement to determine the relative carbon monoxide content in the furnace instead of the gas analysis of the furnace atmosphere, which is difficult to master technically.
