Abstract

A process is disclosed for recovering and disposing of wet residues produced in cupola furnaces and the metals contained therein, the dust being captured by a filter device. The process is characterised in that the wet residue components are dried using hot waste gases from the system and recovered or converted to slag by being reintroduced into the furnace. This procedure eliminates high waste dumping costs and makes the most efficient use of available useful substances and waste gas energy.

Description

Verfahren zur Verwertung und Entsorgung von, im Kupolofen an¬ fallenden, ReststoffenProcess for recycling and disposal of residues accumulating in the cupola furnace
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Verwer¬ tung von, im Kupolofen anfallenden, nassen Reststoffen.The present invention relates to a method for recycling wet residues obtained in the cupola furnace.
Auf Grund der verschärften Vorschriften zur Luftreinhaltung, sind Einrichtungen zum Umweltschutz unverzichtbare Bestandtei¬ le von Giessereieinrichtungen. Dabei zeichnet sich die Verwer¬ tung und Entsorgung der Giessereistoffe als wichtigste Zu¬ kunftsaufgabe ab.Due to the stricter regulations for air pollution control, environmental protection devices are indispensable components of foundry equipment. The recycling and disposal of the foundry materials is emerging as the most important task for the future.
Schachtöfen, insbesondere Kupolöfen, sind zum Schmelzen von Eisen sind schon seit langem bekannt. Dabei wird der metalli¬ sche Einsatz unter Zugabe von Energieträgern geschmolzen, wo¬ bei Roheisen, Kreislaufmaterial und Schrott mit Energieträgern in wechselnden Mengenanteilen zum Einsatz gelangen.Shaft furnaces, especially cupola furnaces, have long been known for melting iron. The metallic insert is melted with the addition of energy sources, with pig iron, circuit material and scrap with energy sources being used in varying amounts.
Die Gase, welche beim Schmelzvorgang von Metallen im Schacht- bzw. Kupolofen entstehen, beinhalten beträchtliche Mengen an Stäuben. In der Regel sind diese Stäube durch Metalle verun¬ reinigt. Dies kommt daher, dass Kupolöfen üblicherweise mitThe gases that are produced during the melting process of metals in the shaft or cupola furnace contain considerable amounts of dusts. As a rule, these dusts are contaminated by metals. This is because cupola ovens are usually included
ERSATZBLAπ(REGEL26) erstarrtem Roheisen sowie mit Schrott bestückt sind, wobei die Zusammensetzung des letzteren stark von dessen Herkunft und seine Einsatzmenge vom Marktpreis abhängt . Dementsprechend ist die Zusammensetzung der in der Kupolofen- Filteranlage anfal¬ lenden Stäube unterschiedlich und keineswegs immer zur Verwen¬ dung in einem Rezirkulationsprozess geeignet, wie dies z.B. aus der DE 39 42 902 bekannt ist. Hier wird ein Verfahren zur Anreicherung von im Kupolofen anfallenden Stäuben und der dar¬ in enthaltenen Metalle und / oder Oxyde beschrieben, wobei die Stäube mittels einer Filteranordnung im System abgefangen wer¬ den und wobei die metallhaltigen Stäube wiederholt in den Ku¬ polofen eingebracht werden, bis sich eine vorgegebene Konzen¬ tration der Metalle oder deren Oxyde ergibt.REPLACEMENT BLAπ (RULE 26) solidified pig iron and equipped with scrap, the composition of the latter strongly dependent on its origin and its amount of use on the market price. Accordingly, the composition of the dusts produced in the cupola filter system is different and is by no means always suitable for use in a recirculation process, as is known, for example, from DE 39 42 902. Here, a process for the accumulation of dusts occurring in the cupola furnace and the metals and / or oxides contained therein is described, the dusts being captured in the system by means of a filter arrangement and the metal-containing dusts being repeatedly introduced into the cupola furnace, until there is a predetermined concentration of the metals or their oxides.
Die im Kupolofen abgefangenen Stäube müssen wegen der genann¬ ten Verunreinigungen gereinigt werden. Dies geschieht entweder in trockenen Filteranlagen oder durch Nasswäsche, meistens mit Hilfe eines Desintegrators.The dusts caught in the cupola must be cleaned because of the so-called impurities. This is done either in dry filter systems or by wet washing, usually with the help of a disintegrator.
Bei der Nassentstaubung fallen entweder Schlämme oder ein in der Filterpresse entwässerter Filterkuchen an. der Filterku¬ chen wird dann als Abfall auf der Deponie entsorgt. Jedoch, wegen der starken Verunreinigung dieser Filterkuchen durch Me¬ talle wie Zn, Pb, Cd usw., die verschmelzungsbedingt einen Rückstand im Filterkuchen bilden, müssen diese auf Sonderdepo¬ nien entsorgt werden. Das führt zu hohen Kosten.Wet dedusting produces either sludge or a filter cake dewatered in the filter press. the filter kitchen is then disposed of as waste on the landfill. However, because of the strong contamination of these filter cakes by metals such as Zn, Pb, Cd etc., which form a residue in the filter cake due to the fusion, these must be disposed of at special disposal sites. This leads to high costs.
Die Stäube aus trockenen Entstaubungsanlagen, können insbeson¬ dere beim Kupolofen, als kostengünstiger Koksersatz in die Schmelzzone durch Einsaugen oder Einblasen wieder eingeführt werden. Dieser 'erfahren erlaubt über die erfolgreich erprobte Koksersatz-FaL_weise hinaus, durch mehrfache Rezirkulation der Stäube eine Erhöhung der Metallgehalte in Bereiche, die diese für eine wirtschaftliche Wiedergewinnung geeignet machen.The dusts from dry dedusting systems, particularly in the cupola furnace, can be reintroduced into the melting zone by sucking in or blowing in as an inexpensive coke substitute. In addition to the successfully tried-and-tested coke substitute method, this 'experience' allows the metal contents to be increased in areas that make them suitable for economic recovery through multiple recirculation of the dusts.
Dies bedeutet eine wesentliche Entlastung für die Umwelt und eine bedeutsame Kosteneinsparung für Deponien.This means a significant relief for the environment and a significant cost saving for landfills.
ERSATZBLA7T(REGEL26) Bestrebungen, die Stäube aus der Nassgasreinigung in Form von Briketts wiederzugewinnen, sind wegen zu hohem Abrieb in den Schachtöfen nicht sehr erfolgreich gewesen.ERSATZBLA7T (REGEL26) Efforts to recover the dust from wet gas cleaning in the form of briquettes have not been very successful due to excessive abrasion in the shaft furnaces.
Ausgehend vom beschriebenen Stand der Technik, stellt sich die Erfindung die Aufgabe ein Verfahren vorzuschlagen, das eine wirtschaftliche und reproduzierbare Verwertung' von nassen Stäuben im Schachtofen bzw. Kupolofen erlaubt.Starting from the prior art described above, the invention provides an object to propose that allows an economical and reproducible recovery 'from wet dust in a shaft furnace or cupola furnace a method.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Lehre des Anspruches 1 gelöst .This object is achieved by the teaching of claim 1.
Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale gehen aus den abhängigen Ansprü¬ chen hervor.Further advantageous features emerge from the dependent claims.
Anhand der beiliegenden Figur wird ein bevorzugtes Ausfüh¬ rungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher erläutert.A preferred exemplary embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail with reference to the attached figure.
Die Figur zeigt in schematischer Darstellung einen Kupolofen 1, aus dem, die während des Erschmelzungsvorganges entstehen¬ den Stäube abgeführt und einem Desintegrator 2 zugeführt wer¬ den. Der Desintegrator 2 dient als Waschanlage zur Reinigung der Stäube. In einem nachgeschalteten, nicht dargestellten Becken kann sich der gewonnene Schlamm setzen, der anschlie¬ ßend in eine Presse 3 geführt wird. Der so gewonnene noch nas¬ se Filterkuchen wird in eine Vorrichtung zur Trocknung 4 des Filterkuchens geleitet. Dies kann z. B. ein Convex-Trockner sein. Die Schlämme bzw. der Filterkuchen wird in der Vorrich¬ tung 4 mit heissen Abgasen, die nach der Brennkammer 9 aus dem System abgezweigt werden und mittels eines Ventilators mit dem notwendigen Druck in die Trocknungseinheit befördert werden, getrocknet. Die entstandene Mischung aus Gas und trockenem Staub wird anschliessend in einem Zyklon 5 getrennt . Der Staub wird mit einen pneumatischen Sender in ein Silo 7 des Staub- wiedereinführungssystems transportiert und über Düsen in den Kupolofen eingesaugt oder eingeblasen. Die Gase werden in das Gassystem des Ofens zurückgeführt. Die besonderen Vorteile des beschriebenen erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens bestehen in der:The figure shows a schematic representation of a cupola furnace 1, from which the dusts produced during the melting process are removed and fed to a disintegrator 2. The disintegrator 2 serves as a washing system for cleaning the dusts. The sludge obtained can settle in a downstream basin, not shown, which is then fed into a press 3. The still wet filter cake obtained in this way is passed into a device for drying 4 the filter cake. This can e.g. B. a convex dryer. The sludge or the filter cake is dried in the device 4 with hot exhaust gases which are branched off from the system after the combustion chamber 9 and are conveyed into the drying unit by means of a fan at the necessary pressure. The resulting mixture of gas and dry dust is then separated in a cyclone 5. The dust is transported by a pneumatic transmitter into a silo 7 of the dust reintroduction system and sucked or blown into the cupola furnace via nozzles. The gases are returned to the furnace gas system. The particular advantages of the described method according to the invention consist in:
- Eliminierung von hohen Sonderdeponiekosten- Elimination of high landfill costs
- optimale Nutzung der verfügbaren Energie der Abgas- optimal use of the available energy of the exhaust gas
- Wiedergewinnung von Staubbestandteile (Zn, Pb, etc. Endtei¬ len) - recovery of dust components (Zn, Pb, etc. end parts)
