Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of handling slag tanks and ladles used in ferrous or non-ferrous metallurgy.
- slag slag
- a first technique lies in tilting the tank in which it floats above the bath of molten metal. Slag can also be collected by scraping or overflowing during tipping.
- tanks or slag ladles in English “slag pot” or “slag laddle”), which are typically made of refractories, cast iron or steel (in English cast iron or steel).
- Blast furnace slag is a co-product resulting from the manufacture of cast iron in a blast furnace, where it corresponds to the sterile gangue of iron ore to which are added mineral additions and fuel ashes, in particular coke, coal and/or alternative fuels. It therefore separates from the liquid cast iron by difference in density.
- the amount of slag produced corresponds directly to the richness of the iron ore used. For a blast furnace operating with iron-rich ores, a proportion of 180 to 350 kg of slag is generally reached for one tonne of cast iron produced.
- Steelmaking slag comes from pyro-metallurgical tools, such as various refining tools like pig iron desulfurization tools, converters turning pig iron into steel (BOF- Basic Oxygen Furnace), electric furnaces (EAF-Electric Arc Furnace), stainless steel refining converters (AOD-Argon Oxygen Decarburization) and various secondary metallurgy grader tools.
- various refining tools like pig iron desulfurization tools, converters turning pig iron into steel (BOF- Basic Oxygen Furnace), electric furnaces (EAF-Electric Arc Furnace), stainless steel refining converters (AOD-Argon Oxygen Decarburization) and various secondary metallurgy grader tools.
- various refining tools like pig iron desulfurization tools, converters turning pig iron into steel (BOF- Basic Oxygen Furnace), electric furnaces (EAF-Electric Arc Furnace), stainless steel refining converters (AOD-Argon Oxygen
- steel mill slag The function of steel mill slag is to collect impurities and unwanted chemical elements. The latter are in the vast majority of cases in the form of oxides. They are generally generated during the use of the pyro-metallurgical tool concerned.
- a high lime content will, for example, make the slag capable of capturing phosphorus oxides in the converter, which makes its use as a fertilizer possible.
- a high lime content makes the slag basic, which is favorable to the capture of alumina inclusions.
- this slag must also spare the refractory bricks.
- the present invention relates more particularly to the field of handling slag tanks and ladles but also crucibles and shells, made of steel or cast iron, used in metal preparation workshops in ferrous or non-ferrous metallurgy.
- the slag concerned in the context of the present invention is slag from steelmaking or non-ferrous metallurgy.
- slag tanks the tanks, ladles, crucibles, shells and the like made of steel or cast iron intended to collect slag from the steelworks or the metallurgical industry.
- the slag vats should be kept above 150°C in order to avoid any accumulation of water. Indeed, this would generate explosions during the pouring of the slag itself at a temperature of more than 1200°C. It is therefore common practice to heat slag tanks prior to commissioning.
- wolf or “clinker” also depends on the steelmaking tool that generated the slag. Some being by physical and chemical nature more prone than others to the formation of wolves.
- the slag tanks cool significantly following the exposure to climatic conditions and to the duration of the “deloupage” process (“deskulling” in English or “ontbering” in Dutch). They must then be reheated later.
- this reheating represents significant calorific energy that is too expensive to return to the optimum temperature ranges around 250°C.
- the tanks are reheated to around 150°C for the safety reasons mentioned above.
- this layer deposited mineral may involve the formation of an intermediate slag phase by means of an endothermic reaction which provides a cooling effect, or on the contrary, the formation of an intermediate phase with a higher melting point, or even play on other effects related to a phase transformation, such as playing on the dilation or on the shrinkage.
- suspensions include mixed compounds whose composition has an impact on the composition of the slag, the chemical properties of which are thus modified, such as for example the basicity (determined by the ratio of the quantity of basic elements to the quantity of acid elements in the solid fraction), basicity which is modified by adapting the basicity of the suspension according to the basicity of the slag poured into the tank or slag ladle.
- US5437890 discloses a pretreatment of the walls of slag tanks made of refractory materials with an essentially mineral mixture comprising lime, slag fines and water in order to prevent the adhesion of the slag to the refractory walls, which destroy the walls of the tank.
- JP2015094020 , JPH085260 and the document JPS63295458 refer, for example, to treatment with lime suspensions.
- the document JP2015094020 discloses a treatment of the inner surface of the slag tanks by spraying a lime suspension to be used in the hot slag recycling process during the realization of the desulfurization treatment.
- the lime slurry spray nozzle is connected to a lime slurry tank, wherein the lime slurry has a lime concentration of 13.5 to 15% by weight based on the total lime slurry weight. Excess lime slurry and wash water both sprayed on the inner surface of the slag vats returns to the lime slurry tank.
- JPS63295458 also discloses that slaked lime is fed to the wall of the slag vats to facilitate the draining of slag from the vat when the slag is cooled and solidified.
- this document does not disclose any characteristic of the lime, nor how, nor even at what content it is applied to the inner wall of the slag tanks.
- it does not describe anything regarding the removal of slag by pouring.
- the solidification of the slag is expected in order to be able to remove it from the tank or the slag ladle.
- the object of the invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art by providing a process providing optimized pre-treatment of steel or cast iron slag tanks and ladles in order to facilitate handling thereof on pyro steelmaking sites. -metallurgical between the slag collection point at the iron and steel or pyro-metallurgical tool and the dumping of the slag into a deposit site, typically a landfill site.
- a method for handling a slag tank or ladle comprising an inner wall and an outer wall, according to claim 1.
- the method according to the present invention is characterized in that said slag tank or ladle is a steel or cast iron tank or ladle and in that said mineral suspension comprises calcium particles in suspension in an aqueous phase forming a milk of calcium particles , and additives, said calcium particles being chosen from the group consisting of slaked lime, decarbonated dolomite at least partially slaked, limestone and mixtures thereof and having a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight relative to the weight of said milk of calcium particles, said mineral layer being a thin layer.
- the term “commissioning” means the circulation of the slag tank or ladle for the role expected of a slag tank or ladle, namely the collection of dairy.
- the method according to the present invention focuses on steel or cast iron tanks.
- the choice concerning ladles or slag tanks made of steel or cast iron (and not of refractory), makes it possible to make the most of the difference in coefficient of expansion between the materials.
- milk of calcium particles chosen exclusively from the restricted group consisting of slaked lime, at least partially slaked decarbonated dolomite, limestone and mixtures thereof has a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight, relative to the total weight of the milk of calcium particles is lined on the inside wall of the slag tanks or pockets, a fine and homogeneous mineral layer is produced and it has been surprisingly noticed that the slag poured into it does not adhere or very little at the time of dumping in landfill.
- the layer thus formed acts as a mold release agent forming a layer that significantly reduces the formation of clinker by significantly reducing the adhesion between the slag tank or ladle and the slag that is poured into it.
- the specific concentration of between 20 and 60% of calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles allows, when milk of calcium particles is sprayed, that the water contained in the suspension evaporates almost instantaneously on contact with the hot wall and that a layer of calcium particles is applied and thus forms a thin and homogeneous layer, which does not affect the concentration of calcium particles in the slag, but also avoids bringing residual water into the slag, which is dangerous for handling the tank or slag ladle.
- the temperature of the tank or the bag is higher than 100°C, which leads to the evaporation of the water contained in the milk of calcium particles and thus leaves a thin and homogeneous layer of calcium particles.
- the terms "tank or slag ladle lined with a mineral layer on one surface” means that approximately 70%, for example more than 80%, in particular more than 85%, or even more 90% of the surface is lined with a fine mineral layer.
- Calcium oxide, CaO is often called “quicklime”, while calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH) 2 , is called “hydrated lime” or “slaked lime”, the two compounds sometimes being informally called “lime”.
- lime is an industrial product based on calcium oxide or hydroxide respectively.
- Quicklime means a solid mineral material whose chemical composition is mainly calcium oxide, CaO. Quicklime is generally obtained by calcining limestone (mainly composed of CaCO 3 ).
- Quicklime can also contain impurities such as magnesium oxide, MgO, sulfur oxide, SO 3 , silica, SiO 2 , or even alumina, Al 2 O 3 , .. ., the sum of which is at a rate of a few% by weight. Impurities are expressed here in their oxide form, but of course they can appear in different phases. Quicklime generally also contains a few % by weight of residual limestone, called unfired residues.
- Suitable quicklime according to the present invention may comprise MgO, expressed as MgO, in an amount ranging from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 5% by weight, more preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight, most preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight relative to the total weight of the quicklime.
- quicklime is used in the presence of water.
- Calcium oxide in quicklime reacts rapidly with water to form calcium dihydroxide Ca(OH) 2 , in the form of slaked lime or hydrated lime, in a reaction called the hydration or slaking reaction which is very exothermic.
- calcium dihydroxide will be referred to simply as calcium hydroxide.
- Hydrated lime can therefore contain the same impurities as those of the quicklime from which it is produced.
- the slaked lime can also comprise Mg(OH) 2 in an amount ranging from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 5% by weight, more preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight. weight, most preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight relative to the total weight of the slaked lime.
- the slaked lime may also include calcium oxide, which may not have been fully hydrated during the slaking step, or calcium carbonate CaCO 3 .
- the calcium carbonate can come from the initial limestone (incuit) from which the said slaked lime is obtained (via calcium oxide), or come from a partial carbonation reaction of the slaked lime by contact with a atmosphere containing CO 2 .
- the amount of calcium oxide in the slaked lime according to the present invention is generally less than or equal to 3% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 2% by weight and more preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight with respect to the total weight of slaked lime.
- the amount of CO 2 in the slaked lime (mainly in the form of CaCO 3 ) according to the present invention is less than or equal to 5% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight, plus preferably less than or equal to 2% by weight, relative to the total weight of the slaked lime according to the present invention.
- milk of lime is understood to mean a suspension of solid particles of slaked lime in an aqueous phase at a concentration greater than or equal to 200 g/kg.
- the solid particles can obviously contain impurities, namely phases derived from SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , Fe 2 O 3 , MnO, P 2 O 5 and/or SO 3 , globally representing a few tens of grams per kilogram.
- These solid particles may also contain calcium oxide which would not have been hydrated during extinction, just as they may contain calcium carbonate CaCO 3 and/or magnesium carbonate MgCO 3 , optionally combined in the form of dolomite.
- milk of calcium particles means a suspension of solid calcium particles in an aqueous phase at a concentration greater than or equal to 200 g/kg.
- Dolomite includes both calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate in varying proportions as well as various impurities.
- the cooking of the dolomite causes the release of CO 2 (decarbonation) and a lively dolomitic product is obtained, namely composed mainly of CaO and MgO, although carbonates, especially CaCO 3 , can remain in more or less significant quantity. .
- a lively dolomitic product is obtained, namely composed mainly of CaO and MgO, although carbonates, especially CaCO 3 , can remain in more or less significant quantity.
- water is added to hydrate the live part of the decarbonated dolomite.
- the avidity of CaO for water being much higher than that of MgO for water, it is often necessary to hydrate under pressure, for example in an autoclave, resulting in a product that is at least partially hydrated. It is indeed common for a part of the MgO to remain in the form of MgO.
- the Ca/Mg proportions between the oxide, carbonate and hydrate part are
- limestone is understood to mean, within the meaning of the present invention, a natural mineral material derived from limestone ore or, when the properties must be controlled, derived from the carbonation of quicklime. Limestone responds to the general formula CaCO 3 and can obviously contain impurities.
- the milk of calcium particles is a milk of lime and said calcium particles are particles of slaked lime.
- the mold release effect of the mineral layer allows the slag to be discharged, carrying the mineral layer with it and thus leaving the tank or slag pocket perfectly clean for the following operations.
- the slaked lime is transformed anyway into quicklime because of the temperature of the slag which is higher than 1200°C. This transformation releases water vapor which detaches the spilled slag from the many attachment points formed between the slag and the inner wall of the tank or slag ladle. This significantly reduces the total surface area of slag adhering to the mineral layer formed of lime particles.
- the mineral layer comprising calcium hydrate carbonates and thus transforms into a layer of calcium carbonate.
- the calcium carbonate decarbonates and forms quicklime by releasing CO 2 and no longer water vapor (although the two phenomena can occur simultaneously).
- Said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 of between 1.5 ⁇ m and 10 ⁇ m.
- said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 less than or equal to 8 ⁇ m, in particular less than or equal to 6 ⁇ m, more particularly less than or equal to 5 ⁇ m, particularly less than 4 ⁇ m.
- said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 greater than or equal to 2 ⁇ m, in particular greater than or equal to 2.5 ⁇ m.
- the notation d X represents a diameter, expressed in ⁇ m, compared to which X % of the particles or grains measured are smaller.
- the reactivity of a milk of lime is therefore evaluated by the evolution over time of the measurement of the conductivity of a solution prepared by diluting a small quantity of milk of lime in a large volume of demineralised water.
- the corresponding dissolution time , t(x%) in s is then obtained from the graph conductivity vs. time (see Figure 2 of EN12485(2010)).
- said mineral suspension contains or is a milk of lime
- the latter has a reactivity expressed in the form of a dissolution time t (90%) greater than 0.1 s in particular greater than 0.2 s and less than 10 s, in particular less than 5 s.
- the particles of slaked lime have a sufficiently fine particle size to also contribute to the formation of a fine mineral layer, in particular homogeneous, contributing to the simplification of the demoulding of the slag.
- said milk of calcium particles has a stability characterized by the bottle test as described in the document WO 2001/096240 .
- Said additives of said mineral suspension are chosen from the group consisting of carbohydrates as well as dispersants and plasticizing additives, such as polycarbonates or polyacrylates, or polyphosphonates, in particular DTPMP.

- the mineral suspension is coated on the inner wall of the slag tanks or ladles.
- additives may be present in said mineral suspension, in particular one or more carbohydrates with one or more dispersing or thinning agents.
- the water contained in the suspension evaporates almost instantaneously on contact with the hot wall. If the mineral suspension contains a carbohydrate, the evaporation of the water contained in the mineral suspension causes a rapid increase in the concentration of carbohydrate until it forms a weak glue favoring the adhesion of the calcium particles to the walls. of the slag tank, also due to the temperature of the slag tank or ladle, which is above 100°C.
- the temperature of the slag produces a reaction of calcination of the carbohydrate, possibly simultaneously with the dehydration of the calcium hydroxide when the calcium particles are particles of slaked lime or decarbonated dolomite at least partially hydrated, which facilitates the demolding of the slag, these phenomena occurring from 500°C.
- the fine mineral layer formed by spraying allows, when the slag is poured into the tank or slag ladle, to produce a shear plane behind the mineral layer (at the interface between the inner wall of the tank or slag ladle and the mineral layer).
- the shear plane can be produced a priori because the presence of the carbohydrate acts as a weak glue, compared to the potential adhesion of the slag to the inner wall of the slag vessel or ladle.
- the mineral layer "stuck" on the inner wall of the slag tank or ladle is composed of fine mineral particles.
- the temperature of the tank or slag ladle, just before the pouring of the slag typically has a temperature of 100° C. to 350° C., the temperature at which the mineral particles are stable.

Description
La présente invention concerne le domaine de la manutention des cuves et poches à laitier utilisées dans la métallurgie ferreuse ou non-ferreuse.The present invention relates to the field of handling slag tanks and ladles used in ferrous or non-ferrous metallurgy.
Typiquement, l'industrie pyro-métallurgique produit des laitiers, aussi appelés scories (en anglais « slag ») qui flottent au-dessus du bain de métal en fusion de par sa densité inférieure à celle du métal fondu.Typically, the pyro-metallurgical industry produces slag, also called slag (“slag”) which floats above the bath of molten metal due to its lower density than that of the molten metal.
La collecte du laitier est effectuée de différentes manières. Une première technique réside dans le basculement de la cuve dans laquelle il surnage au-dessus du bain de métal fondu. Le laitier peut aussi être collecté par raclage ou par débordement lors du basculement.Slag collection is carried out in different ways. A first technique lies in tilting the tank in which it floats above the bath of molten metal. Slag can also be collected by scraping or overflowing during tipping.
Il est alors récupéré dans des cuves ou poches à laitier (en anglais « slag pot » ou « slag laddle »), lesquelles sont typiquement formées de réfractaires, de fonte ou d'acier (en anglais cast iron ou steel).It is then recovered in tanks or slag ladles (in English “slag pot” or “slag laddle”), which are typically made of refractories, cast iron or steel (in English cast iron or steel).
Dans l'industrie métallurgique ferreuse, on distingue les laitiers de haut fourneau et les laitiers d'aciérie.In the ferrous metallurgical industry, a distinction is made between blast furnace slag and steelworks slag.
Le laitier de haut fourneau est un coproduit issu de la fabrication de la fonte dans un haut fourneau, où il correspond à la gangue stérile du minerai de fer à laquelle s'ajoutent des additions minérales et des cendres de combustible, notamment de coke, charbon et/ou combustibles alternatifs. Il se sépare donc de la fonte liquide par différence de densité.Blast furnace slag is a co-product resulting from the manufacture of cast iron in a blast furnace, where it corresponds to the sterile gangue of iron ore to which are added mineral additions and fuel ashes, in particular coke, coal and/or alternative fuels. It therefore separates from the liquid cast iron by difference in density.
La quantité de laitier produite correspond directement à la richesse du minerai de fer utilisé. Pour un haut fourneau fonctionnant avec des minerais riches en fer, on atteint généralement une proportion 180 à 350 kg de laitier pour une tonne de fonte produite.The amount of slag produced corresponds directly to the richness of the iron ore used. For a blast furnace operating with iron-rich ores, a proportion of 180 to 350 kg of slag is generally reached for one tonne of cast iron produced.
Le laitier d'aciérie provient d'outils pyro-métallurgiques, tels que divers outils de raffinage comme les outils de désulfuration de la fonte, les convertisseurs transformant la fonte en acier (BOF- Basic Oxygen Furnace), les fours électriques (EAF-Electric Arc Furnace), les convertisseurs de raffinage des aciers inoxydables (AOD-Argon Oxygen Decarburization) et les divers outils de mise à nuance de métallurgie secondaire. Pour une tonne d'acier produite, on compte de 50 à 150 kg de laitier d'aciérie produits.Steelmaking slag comes from pyro-metallurgical tools, such as various refining tools like pig iron desulfurization tools, converters turning pig iron into steel (BOF- Basic Oxygen Furnace), electric furnaces (EAF-Electric Arc Furnace), stainless steel refining converters (AOD-Argon Oxygen Decarburization) and various secondary metallurgy grader tools. For one ton of steel produced, there are 50 to 150 kg of steel slag produced.
Le laitier d'aciérie a pour fonction de rassembler les impuretés et les éléments chimiques indésirables. Ces derniers se présentent dans la grande majorité des cas sous forme d'oxydes. Ils sont généralement générés au cours de l'utilisation de l'outil pyro-métallurgique concerné.The function of steel mill slag is to collect impurities and unwanted chemical elements. The latter are in the vast majority of cases in the form of oxides. They are generally generated during the use of the pyro-metallurgical tool concerned.
Pour cela, il est essentiel de gérer sa composition, de manière à le rendre réactif. Une haute teneur en chaux va, par exemple, rendre le laitier capable de capter les oxydes de phosphore au convertisseur, ce qui rend sa valorisation comme engrais envisageable. À la métallurgie en poche, une haute teneur en chaux rend le laitier basique, ce qui est favorable à la captation des inclusions d'alumine. Cependant, ce laitier doit aussi ménager les briques réfractaires.For this, it is essential to manage its composition, so as to make it reactive. A high lime content will, for example, make the slag capable of capturing phosphorus oxides in the converter, which makes its use as a fertilizer possible. In ladle metallurgy, a high lime content makes the slag basic, which is favorable to the capture of alumina inclusions. However, this slag must also spare the refractory bricks.
La présente invention concerne plus particulièrement le domaine de la manutention des cuves et poches à laitier mais aussi des creusets et coques, en acier ou fonte, utilisés dans les ateliers de préparation du métal dans la métallurgie ferreuse ou non-ferreuse.The present invention relates more particularly to the field of handling slag tanks and ladles but also crucibles and shells, made of steel or cast iron, used in metal preparation workshops in ferrous or non-ferrous metallurgy.
Plus particulièrement, le laitier concerné dans le cadre de la présente invention est le laitier d'aciérie ou de la métallurgie non ferreuse.More particularly, the slag concerned in the context of the present invention is slag from steelmaking or non-ferrous metallurgy.
Dans le cadre de la présente invention, nous appellerons simplement « cuves à laitier », les cuves, poches, creusets, coques et analogues en acier ou fonte destinées à collecter les laitiers d'aciérie ou de l'industrie métallurgique.In the context of the present invention, we will simply call “slag tanks” the tanks, ladles, crucibles, shells and the like made of steel or cast iron intended to collect slag from the steelworks or the metallurgical industry.
Dans l'industrie métallurgique, la manutention des cuves à laitier est souvent confiée à des sous-traitants, les cuves à laitier faisant partie de la chaudronnerie appartenant souvent à l'industrie métallurgique.In the metallurgical industry, the handling of slag tanks is often entrusted to subcontractors, the slag tanks forming part of the boilermaking often belonging to the metallurgical industry.
Entre autres durant le convoyage des cuves à laitier, pour des raisons de sécurité, il convient de maintenir les cuves à laitier au-dessus de 150°C afin d'éviter toute accumulation d'eau. En effet, ceci engendrerait des explosions lors du versage du laitier lui-même à une température de plus de 1200°C. Il est par conséquent une pratique courante de chauffer les cuves à laitier avant leur mise en service.Among other things during the conveying of the slag vats, for safety reasons, the slag vats should be kept above 150°C in order to avoid any accumulation of water. Indeed, this would generate explosions during the pouring of the slag itself at a temperature of more than 1200°C. It is therefore common practice to heat slag tanks prior to commissioning.
Lors de l'utilisation en régime des cuves à laitier, leurs température reste stable et le plus souvent au-dessus de 250°C grâce à l'accumulation et la rétention de la chaleur provenant du laitier. La différence de coefficient de dilatation entre le laitier et la fonte ou l'acier constituant la cuve devrait en effet engendrer des décollements lorsque la température de la cuve fluctue. Or, lors d'une utilisation en régime, cette dernière ne fluctue pas suffisamment pour engendrer des décollements. Par conséquent, la formation de « loup » ou de « mâchefer » (en anglais « skull » ou en allemand « bär » ou en néérlandais « beer ») est favorisée. La présente invention vise entre-autres à pallier ce manqué..During normal use of slag tanks, their temperature remains stable and most often above 250°C thanks to the accumulation and retention of heat from the slag. The difference in coefficient of expansion between the slag and the cast iron or the steel constituting the tank should in fact cause separations when the temperature of the tank fluctuates. However, during use in regime, the latter does not fluctuate enough to cause separations. Therefore, the formation of "wolf" or "mâchefer" (in English "skull" or in German "bär" or in Dutch "beer") is favored. The present invention aims, among other things, to remedy this lack.
Bien entendu, la formation de « loup » ou de « mâchefer » est inhérente au processus et survient dans tous les cas. Toutefois, elle peut survenir de manière plus ou moins importante selon que le procédé de manutention est optimal ou non.Of course, the formation of "wolf" or "clinker" is inherent in the process and occurs in all cases. However, it can occur to a greater or lesser extent depending on whether the handling process is optimal or not.
La formation de « loup » ou de « mâchefer » est également fonction de l'outil sidérurgique ayant engendré le laitier. Certain étant par nature physique et chimique plus prompt que d'autres à la formation de loups.The formation of “wolf” or “clinker” also depends on the steelmaking tool that generated the slag. Some being by physical and chemical nature more prone than others to the formation of wolves.
De plus, lorsque le nettoyage des cuves à laitier est long et qu'il faut « délouper » (retirer mécaniquement la couche de mâchefer ou le loup qui adhère aux parois de la cuve à laitier), les cuves à laitier refroidissent significativement suite à l'exposition aux conditions climatiques et à la durée du procédé de « déloupage » (« deskulling » en anglais ou « ontbering » en néérlandais). Il faut alors les réchauffer ultérieurement. Toutefois, ce réchauffage représente une énergie calorifique importante trop coûteuse pour permettre de revenir dans les fourchettes de températures optimales autour de 250°C. Aussi, généralement, après nettoyage, les cuves sont réchauffées autour de 150°C pour les raisons de sécurité mentionnées ci-avant.In addition, when the cleaning of the slag tanks is long and it is necessary to "unloop" (mechanically remove the layer of clinker or the wolf which adheres to the walls of the slag tank), the slag tanks cool significantly following the exposure to climatic conditions and to the duration of the “deloupage” process (“deskulling” in English or “ontbering” in Dutch). They must then be reheated later. However, this reheating represents significant calorific energy that is too expensive to return to the optimum temperature ranges around 250°C. Also, generally, after cleaning, the tanks are reheated to around 150°C for the safety reasons mentioned above.
De nos jours, une couche minérale peut être déposée sur la paroi intérieure des cuves à laitier. Cette solution joue principalement sur la formation de phases de laitier intermédiaires. Par exemple, cette couche minérale déposée peut impliquer la formation d'une phase de laitier intermédiaire au moyen d'une réaction endothermique qui assure un effet de refroidissement, ou au contraire, la formation d'une phase intermédiaire à plus haut point de fusion, ou encore, jouent sur d'autres effet en relation avec une transformation de phases, comme en jouant sur la dilatation ou bien sur le retrait.Nowadays, a mineral layer can be deposited on the inside wall of slag tanks. This solution mainly affects the formation of intermediate slag phases. For example, this layer deposited mineral may involve the formation of an intermediate slag phase by means of an endothermic reaction which provides a cooling effect, or on the contrary, the formation of an intermediate phase with a higher melting point, or even play on other effects related to a phase transformation, such as playing on the dilation or on the shrinkage.
Ces techniques mentionnées ci-dessus utilisent principalement des suspensions réfractaires ou des suspensions minérales de chaux et de laitier en mélange. Toutefois, ces suspensions comprennent des composés en mélange dont la composition a un impact sur la composition du laitier dont les propriétés chimiques sont ainsi modifiées, comme par exemple la basicité (déterminée par le rapport de la quantité d'éléments basiques à la quantité d'éléments acides dans la fraction solide), basicité qui est modifiée en adaptant la basicité de la suspension selon la basicité du laitier versé dans la cuve ou poche à laitier.These techniques mentioned above mainly use refractory suspensions or mineral suspensions of lime and slag in a mixture. However, these suspensions include mixed compounds whose composition has an impact on the composition of the slag, the chemical properties of which are thus modified, such as for example the basicity (determined by the ratio of the quantity of basic elements to the quantity of acid elements in the solid fraction), basicity which is modified by adapting the basicity of the suspension according to the basicity of the slag poured into the tank or slag ladle.
Bien que ces solutions techniques impliquant des suspensions soient actuellement considérées comme fonctionnant correctement, elles sont aussi fortement dépendantes de la composition chimique et de l'homogénéité du laitier qui est versé dans les cuves ou poches à laitier. Par conséquent, comme la composition des laitiers n'est franchement pas toujours homogène, que sa composition globale peut aussi varier d'un outil à un autre ou même varier dans le temps pour un même outil, la composition de ces suspensions doit aussi être adaptée, ce qui rend le procédé particulièrement complexe et fort manuel. Ceci est par exemple décrit dans le document
Le document
Dans le passé, parfois, des suspensions de chaux étaient utilisées dans ce type d'application. Les ateliers de l'industrie métallurgique produisaient alors grossièrement une suspension de chaux, lesquelles présentaient de nombreux inconvénients comme par exemple une faible efficacité, une épaisseur importante de revêtement sur les parois, la présence d'eau résiduelle dans la cuve ou dans la poche à laitier, ce qui représente un danger, des applications très sales et complexes, très manuelles et finalement, ces solutions étaient fort couteuses en comparaison des faibles résultats obtenus en terme de simplification de la manutention.In the past, sometimes lime slurries were used in this type of application. The workshops of the metallurgical industry then roughly produced a suspension of lime, which had many drawbacks such as low efficiency, a significant thickness of coating on the walls, the presence of residual water in the tank or in the slag ladle, which represents a danger , very dirty and complex applications, very manual and finally, these solutions were very expensive compared to the poor results obtained in terms of simplification of handling.

Comme on peut le constater, les techniques existantes utilisent soit des suspensions minérales dont la composition est complexe et requiert des étapes de formulation adaptable à la composition des laitiers ou bien des suspensions minérales très grossières, non contrôlées et finalement peu efficaces. Il reste donc un besoin de procurer une manutention des cuves ou poches à laitier optimisée, simple à mettre en oeuvre et efficace.As can be seen, the existing techniques use either mineral suspensions whose composition is complex and requires formulation stages that can be adapted to the composition of the slags, or very coarse mineral suspensions, uncontrolled and ultimately little effective. There therefore remains a need to provide handling of the slag tanks or ladles that is optimized, simple to implement and efficient.
L'invention a pour but de pallier les inconvénients de l'état de la technique en procurant un procédé procurant un prétraitement optimisé des cuves et poches à laitiers en acier ou en fonte afin de faciliter la manutention de celle-ci sur les sites sidérurgiques pyro-métallurgiques entre le point de collecte du laitier au niveau de l'outil sidérurgique ou pyro-métallurgique et le déversement du laitier dans un site de dépose, typiquement un site de mise en décharge (landfill en anglais).The object of the invention is to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art by providing a process providing optimized pre-treatment of steel or cast iron slag tanks and ladles in order to facilitate handling thereof on pyro steelmaking sites. -metallurgical between the slag collection point at the iron and steel or pyro-metallurgical tool and the dumping of the slag into a deposit site, typically a landfill site.
Pour résoudre ce problème, il est prévu suivant l'invention un procédé de manutention de cuve ou poche à laitier comprenant une paroi intérieure et une paroi extérieure, selon la revendication 1.To solve this problem, there is provided according to the invention a method for handling a slag tank or ladle comprising an inner wall and an outer wall, according to claim 1.
Le procédé selon la présente invention est caractérisé en ce que ladite cuve ou poche à laitier est une cuve ou poche en acier ou en fonte et en ce que ladite suspension minérale comprend des particules calciques en suspension dans une phase aqueuse formant un lait de particules calciques, et des additifs, lesdites particules calciques étant choisies dans le groupe constitué de la chaux éteinte, de la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement éteinte, du calcaire et de leurs mélanges et présentant une teneur en particules calciques comprise entre 20 et 60 % en poids par rapport au poids dudit lait de particules calciques, ladite couche minérale étant une couche fine.The method according to the present invention is characterized in that said slag tank or ladle is a steel or cast iron tank or ladle and in that said mineral suspension comprises calcium particles in suspension in an aqueous phase forming a milk of calcium particles , and additives, said calcium particles being chosen from the group consisting of slaked lime, decarbonated dolomite at least partially slaked, limestone and mixtures thereof and having a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight relative to the weight of said milk of calcium particles, said mineral layer being a thin layer.
Au sens de la présente invention, par les termes « mise en service », on entend la mise en circulation de la cuve ou poche à laitier pour le rôle qu'on attend d'une cuve ou poche à laitier, à savoir la collecte du laitier.Within the meaning of the present invention, the term "commissioning" means the circulation of the slag tank or ladle for the role expected of a slag tank or ladle, namely the collection of dairy.
Comme on peut le constater, le procédé selon la présente invention se focalise sur les cuves en acier ou en fonte.As can be seen, the method according to the present invention focuses on steel or cast iron tanks.
En effet, dans le cadre de la présente invention, le choix concernant les poches ou cuves à laitier faites d'acier ou de fonte (et non de réfractaire), permet de tirer le meilleur parti de la différence de coefficient de dilatation entre les matériaux de type métallique formant les cuves ou poches à laitier et les oxydes formant le laitier.Indeed, in the context of the present invention, the choice concerning ladles or slag tanks made of steel or cast iron (and not of refractory), makes it possible to make the most of the difference in coefficient of expansion between the materials. metallic type forming the slag tanks or ladles and the oxides forming the slag.
Lorsque du lait de particules calciques choisies exclusivement dans le groupe restreint constitué de la chaux éteinte, de la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement éteinte, du calcaire et de leurs mélanges présente une teneur en particules calciques comprise entre 20 et 60 % en poids, par rapport au poids total du lait de particules calcique est tapissé sur la paroi intérieure des cuves ou poches à laitier, une couche minérale fine et homogène est réalisée et il a été remarqué de manière surprenante que le laitier qui y est versé n'adhérait pas ou très peu au moment du déversage en décharge. La couche ainsi formée agit en tant qu'agent de démoulage formant une couche réduisant significativement la formation de mâchefer par réduction significative de l'adhérence entre la cuve ou poche à laitier et le laitier qui y est versé.When milk of calcium particles chosen exclusively from the restricted group consisting of slaked lime, at least partially slaked decarbonated dolomite, limestone and mixtures thereof has a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight, relative to the total weight of the milk of calcium particles is lined on the inside wall of the slag tanks or pockets, a fine and homogeneous mineral layer is produced and it has been surprisingly noticed that the slag poured into it does not adhere or very little at the time of dumping in landfill. The layer thus formed acts as a mold release agent forming a layer that significantly reduces the formation of clinker by significantly reducing the adhesion between the slag tank or ladle and the slag that is poured into it.
La concentration spécifique comprise entre 20 et 60% de particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques permet, lorsque du lait de particules calciques est pulvérisé, que l'eau contenue dans la suspension s'évapore presque instantanément au contact de la parois chaude et qu'une couche de particules calciques soit appliquée et forme ainsi une couche fine et homogène, qui ne joue pas sur la concentration en particules calciques dans le laitier, mais également évite d'apporter de l'eau résiduelle dans le laitier, laquelle est dangereuse pour la manutention de la cuve ou poche à laitier.The specific concentration of between 20 and 60% of calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles allows, when milk of calcium particles is sprayed, that the water contained in the suspension evaporates almost instantaneously on contact with the hot wall and that a layer of calcium particles is applied and thus forms a thin and homogeneous layer, which does not affect the concentration of calcium particles in the slag, but also avoids bringing residual water into the slag, which is dangerous for handling the tank or slag ladle.
En effet, lorsque le lait de particules calciques est pulvérisé, la température de la cuve ou de la poche est supérieure à 100°C, ce qui conduit à l'évaporation de l'eau contenue dans le lait de particules calciques et laisse ainsi une couche fine et homogène de particules calciques.Indeed, when the milk of calcium particles is sprayed, the temperature of the tank or the bag is higher than 100°C, which leads to the evaporation of the water contained in the milk of calcium particles and thus leaves a thin and homogeneous layer of calcium particles.
Au sens de la présente invention, les termes « cuve ou poche à laitier tapissée d'une couche minérale sur une surface, on entend qu'environ 70%, par exemple plus de 80%, en particulier plus de 85%, voire même plus de 90% de la surface est tapissée d'une couche minérale fine.Within the meaning of the present invention, the terms "tank or slag ladle lined with a mineral layer on one surface" means that approximately 70%, for example more than 80%, in particular more than 85%, or even more 90% of the surface is lined with a fine mineral layer.
L'oxyde de calcium, CaO, est souvent appelé « chaux vive », tandis que l'hydroxyde de calcium, Ca(OH)2, est appelé « chaux hydratée » ou « chaux éteinte », les deux composés étant parfois de manière informelle nommés « chaux ». En d'autres termes, la chaux est un produit industriel respectivement à base d'oxyde ou d'hydroxyde de calcium.Calcium oxide, CaO, is often called "quicklime", while calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH) 2 , is called "hydrated lime" or "slaked lime", the two compounds sometimes being informally called "lime". In other words, lime is an industrial product based on calcium oxide or hydroxide respectively.
Par « chaux vive », on entend une matière solide minérale dont la composition chimique est principalement de l'oxyde de calcium, CaO. La chaux vive est généralement obtenue par calcination de calcaire (principalement composé de CaCO3).“Quicklime” means a solid mineral material whose chemical composition is mainly calcium oxide, CaO. Quicklime is generally obtained by calcining limestone (mainly composed of CaCO 3 ).
La chaux vive peut également contenir des impuretés telles que de l'oxyde de magnésium, MgO, de l'oxyde de soufre, SO3, de la silice, SiO2, ou encore de l'alumine, Al2O3, ..., dont la somme est à un taux de quelques % en poids. Les impuretés sont exprimées ici sous leur forme d'oxyde, mais bien sûr, elles peuvent apparaître sous différentes phases. La chaux vive contient généralement également quelques % en poids de calcaire résiduel, appelé résidus incuits.Quicklime can also contain impurities such as magnesium oxide, MgO, sulfur oxide, SO 3 , silica, SiO 2 , or even alumina, Al 2 O 3 , .. ., the sum of which is at a rate of a few% by weight. Impurities are expressed here in their oxide form, but of course they can appear in different phases. Quicklime generally also contains a few % by weight of residual limestone, called unfired residues.
La chaux vive appropriée selon la présente invention peut comprendre du MgO, exprimé sous la forme de MgO, en une quantité comprise dans la plage allant de 0,5 à 10 % en poids, de préférence inférieure ou égale à 5 % en poids, plus préférablement inférieure ou égale à 3 % en poids, de manière préférée entre toutes inférieure ou égale à 1 % en poids par rapport au poids total de la chaux vive.Suitable quicklime according to the present invention may comprise MgO, expressed as MgO, in an amount ranging from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 5% by weight, more preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight, most preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight relative to the total weight of the quicklime.
Typiquement, pour former de la chaux éteinte, de la chaux vive est utilisée en présence d'eau. L'oxyde de calcium dans la chaux vive réagit rapidement avec l'eau pour former du dihydroxyde de calcium Ca(OH)2, sous la forme de chaux éteinte ou de chaux hydratée, dans une réaction appelée réaction d'hydratation ou d'extinction qui est très exothermique. Dans ce qui suit, le dihydroxyde de calcium va être simplement appelé hydroxyde de calcium.Typically, to form slaked lime, quicklime is used in the presence of water. Calcium oxide in quicklime reacts rapidly with water to form calcium dihydroxide Ca(OH) 2 , in the form of slaked lime or hydrated lime, in a reaction called the hydration or slaking reaction which is very exothermic. In the following, calcium dihydroxide will be referred to simply as calcium hydroxide.
La chaux éteinte peut donc contenir les mêmes impuretés que celles de la chaux vive à partir de laquelle elle est produite.Hydrated lime can therefore contain the same impurities as those of the quicklime from which it is produced.
La chaux éteinte peut également comprendre du Mg(OH)2 en une quantité comprise dans la plage allant de 0,5 à 10 % en poids, de préférence inférieure ou égale à 5 % en poids, plus préférablement inférieure ou égale à 3 % en poids, de manière préférée entre toutes inférieure ou égale à 1 % en poids par rapport au poids total de la chaux éteinte.The slaked lime can also comprise Mg(OH) 2 in an amount ranging from 0.5 to 10% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 5% by weight, more preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight. weight, most preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight relative to the total weight of the slaked lime.
La chaux éteinte peut également comprendre de l'oxyde de calcium, qui peut ne pas avoir été entièrement hydraté lors de l'étape d'extinction, ou du carbonate de calcium CaCO3. Le carbonate de calcium peut provenir du calcaire initial (incuit) à partir duquel ladite chaux éteinte est obtenue (par l'intermédiaire de l'oxyde de calcium), ou provenir d'une réaction de carbonatation partielle de la chaux éteinte par contact avec une atmosphère contenant du CO2.The slaked lime may also include calcium oxide, which may not have been fully hydrated during the slaking step, or calcium carbonate CaCO 3 . The calcium carbonate can come from the initial limestone (incuit) from which the said slaked lime is obtained (via calcium oxide), or come from a partial carbonation reaction of the slaked lime by contact with a atmosphere containing CO 2 .
La quantité d'oxyde de calcium dans la chaux éteinte selon la présente invention est généralement inférieure ou égale à 3 % en poids, de préférence inférieure ou égale à 2 % en poids et plus préférablement inférieure ou égale à 1 % en poids par rapport au poids total de la chaux éteinte.The amount of calcium oxide in the slaked lime according to the present invention is generally less than or equal to 3% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 2% by weight and more preferably less than or equal to 1% by weight with respect to the total weight of slaked lime.
La quantité de CO2 dans la chaux éteinte (principalement sous la forme de CaCO3) selon la présente invention est inférieure ou égale à 5 % en poids, de préférence inférieure ou égale à 3 % en poids, plus préférablement inférieure ou égale à 2 % en poids, par rapport au poids total de la chaux éteinte selon la présente invention.The amount of CO 2 in the slaked lime (mainly in the form of CaCO 3 ) according to the present invention is less than or equal to 5% by weight, preferably less than or equal to 3% by weight, plus preferably less than or equal to 2% by weight, relative to the total weight of the slaked lime according to the present invention.
Au sens de la présente invention, on entend par les termes « lait de chaux », une suspension de particules solides de chaux éteinte dans une phase aqueuse à une concentration supérieure ou égale à 200 g/kg. Les particules solides peuvent évidemment contenir des impuretés, à savoir des phases dérivées de SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, MnO, P2O5 et/ou SO3, représentant globalement quelques dizaines de grammes par kilogramme. Ces particules solides peuvent aussi contenir de l'oxyde de calcium qui n'aurait pas été hydraté au cours de l'extinction, tout comme elles peuvent contenir du carbonate de calcium CaCO3 et/ou de magnésium MgCO3, éventuellement combiné sous la forme de dolomie.Within the meaning of the present invention, the term “milk of lime” is understood to mean a suspension of solid particles of slaked lime in an aqueous phase at a concentration greater than or equal to 200 g/kg. The solid particles can obviously contain impurities, namely phases derived from SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , Fe 2 O 3 , MnO, P 2 O 5 and/or SO 3 , globally representing a few tens of grams per kilogram. These solid particles may also contain calcium oxide which would not have been hydrated during extinction, just as they may contain calcium carbonate CaCO 3 and/or magnesium carbonate MgCO 3 , optionally combined in the form of dolomite.
Par analogie, au sens de la présente invention, on entend par les termes « lait de particules calciques », une suspension de particules calciques solides dans une phase aqueuse à une concentration supérieure ou égale à 200 g/kg.By analogy, within the meaning of the present invention, the term “milk of calcium particles” means a suspension of solid calcium particles in an aqueous phase at a concentration greater than or equal to 200 g/kg.
La dolomie comprend à la fois du carbonate de calcium et du carbonate de magnésium en proportions variables ainsi que diverses impuretés. La cuisson de la dolomie provoque la libération de CO2 (décarbonatation) et un produit dolomitique vif est obtenu, à savoir composé majoritairement de CaO et de MgO, bien que des carbonates, surtout du CaCO3, peuvent subsister en quantité plus ou moins importante. Durant l'extinction pour produire une dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement hydratée, de l'eau est ajoutée afin d'hydrater la partie vive de la dolomie décarbonatée. L'avidité de CaO pour l'eau étant bien plus élevée que celle de MgO pour l'eau, il est souvent nécessaire d'hydrater sous pression, par exemple en autoclave avec pour résultat un produit au moins partiellement hydraté. Il est en effet courant qu'une partie du MgO reste sous forme de MgO. Les proportions Ca/Mg entre la partie oxyde, carbonate et hydrate étant fortement variables dans la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement hydratée.Dolomite includes both calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate in varying proportions as well as various impurities. The cooking of the dolomite causes the release of CO 2 (decarbonation) and a lively dolomitic product is obtained, namely composed mainly of CaO and MgO, although carbonates, especially CaCO 3 , can remain in more or less significant quantity. . During quenching to produce an at least partially hydrated decarbonated dolomite, water is added to hydrate the live part of the decarbonated dolomite. The avidity of CaO for water being much higher than that of MgO for water, it is often necessary to hydrate under pressure, for example in an autoclave, resulting in a product that is at least partially hydrated. It is indeed common for a part of the MgO to remain in the form of MgO. The Ca/Mg proportions between the oxide, carbonate and hydrate part are highly variable in decarbonated dolomite that is at least partially hydrated.
Par les termes « calcaire », on entend au sens de la présente invention un matériau minéral naturel issu du minerai calcaire ou, lorsque les propriétés doivent être contrôlées, issu de la carbonatation de la chaux vive. Le calcaire répond à la formule générale CaCO3 et peut évidemment contenir des impuretés.The term “limestone” is understood to mean, within the meaning of the present invention, a natural mineral material derived from limestone ore or, when the properties must be controlled, derived from the carbonation of quicklime. Limestone responds to the general formula CaCO 3 and can obviously contain impurities.
Dans une forme de réalisation particulière selon la présente invention, le lait de particules calciques est un lait de chaux et lesdites particules calciques sont des particules de chaux éteinte.In a particular embodiment according to the present invention, the milk of calcium particles is a milk of lime and said calcium particles are particles of slaked lime.
Lorsque le laitier est déversé dans la cuve ou poche à laitier, il est possible que les particules de chaux éteinte de la couche minérale se transforment in situ, intégralement ou partiellement en chaux vive. Toutefois, dans un cas comme dans l'autre, l'effet démoulant de la couche minérale permet que le laitier soit déversé en décharge, entraînant avec lui la couche minérale et laissant ainsi la cuve ou poche à laitier parfaitement propre pour les opérations suivantes.When the slag is poured into the slag tank or ladle, it is possible that the slaked lime particles of the mineral layer are transformed in situ, entirely or partially into quicklime. However, in one case as in the other, the mold release effect of the mineral layer allows the slag to be discharged, carrying the mineral layer with it and thus leaving the tank or slag pocket perfectly clean for the following operations.
Plus particulièrement, lorsque le laitier est déversé, la chaux éteinte se transforme de toute façon en chaux vive à cause de la température du laitier qui est supérieure à 1200°C. Cette transformation libère de la vapeur d'eau qui décolle le laitier déversé aux nombreux points d'accroche formés entre le laitier et la paroi intérieure de la cuve ou poche à laitier. Ceci réduit significativement la surface totale de laitier adhérant à la couche minérale formée de particules de chaux.More particularly, when the slag is poured out, the slaked lime is transformed anyway into quicklime because of the temperature of the slag which is higher than 1200°C. This transformation releases water vapor which detaches the spilled slag from the many attachment points formed between the slag and the inner wall of the tank or slag ladle. This significantly reduces the total surface area of slag adhering to the mineral layer formed of lime particles.
Même si le revêtement est appliqué et que la cuve ou poche à laitier est entreposée pendant une période de temps indéterminée, la couche minérale comprenant de l'hydrate de calcium se carbonate et se transforme ainsi en une couche de carbonate de calcium. Au moment où le laitier est déversé sur le carbonate de calcium, vu la température du laitier supérieure à 1200°C, le carbonate de calcium se décarbonate et forme de la chaux vive par libération de CO2 et non plus de vapeur d'eau (bien que les deux phénomènes puissent se produire simultanément).Even if the coating is applied and the slag tank or ladle is stored for an indefinite period of time, the mineral layer comprising calcium hydrate carbonates and thus transforms into a layer of calcium carbonate. When the slag is poured onto the calcium carbonate, given the temperature of the slag above 1200°C, the calcium carbonate decarbonates and forms quicklime by releasing CO 2 and no longer water vapor ( although the two phenomena can occur simultaneously).
Par conséquent, la manutention des cuves ou poches à laitier est simplifiée car il n'est plus nécessaire de procéder à l'arrachage mécanique de mâchefer formé, ni de reporter la cuve ou la poche à une température suffisante pour sa mise en service. Une fois le laitier déposé en décharge, il ne faut que vaporiser à nouveau du lait de chaux.Consequently, the handling of slag tanks or ladles is simplified because it is no longer necessary to carry out mechanical lifting of clinker formed, nor to bring the tank or ladle to a sufficient temperature for its commissioning. Once the slag has been deposited in landfill, it is only necessary to spray lime milk again.
La finesse de la couche ainsi que son homogénéité, étant une conséquence de la concentration et de la taille des particules de chaux éteinte dans le lait de chaux, revêt évidemment une importance considérable pour atteindre l'élimination de la couche minérale avec le laitier lors de la dépose en décharge, mais aussi simultanément pour atteindre l'effet « de démoulage » (en anglais « stripping effect »).The thinness of the layer as well as its homogeneity, being a consequence of the concentration and the size of the particles of slaked lime in the milk of lime, is obviously of considerable importance to achieve the elimination of the mineral layer with the slag during disposal in landfill, but also simultaneously to achieve the "stripping effect" effect.
Lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 comprise entre 1,5 µm et 10 µm.Said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 of between 1.5 μm and 10 μm.
De façon avantageuse, lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 inférieure ou égale à 8 µm, en particulier inférieure ou égale à 6 µm, plus particulièrement inférieure ou égale à 5 µm, tout particulièrement inférieure à 4 µm.Advantageously, said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 less than or equal to 8 μm, in particular less than or equal to 6 μm, more particularly less than or equal to 5 μm, particularly less than 4 μm.
De façon avantageuse, lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 supérieure ou égale à 2 µm, en particulier supérieure ou égale à 2,5 µm.Advantageously, said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 greater than or equal to 2 μm, in particular greater than or equal to 2.5 μm.
La notation dX représente un diamètre, exprimé en µm, par rapport auquel X % des particules ou grains mesurées sont plus petites.The notation d X represents a diameter, expressed in µm, compared to which X % of the particles or grains measured are smaller.
Plus les particules sont fines, mieux se produit la réaction de libération de vapeur d'eau ou de CO2 qui permet le décollement du laitier tel qu'indiqué ci-avant.The finer the particles, the better the reaction of releasing water vapor or CO 2 takes place, which allows the separation of the slag as indicated above.
La réactivité des laits de chaux est caractérisée au sens de la présente invention selon la norme européenne EN12485(2010), § 6.11 « Détermination of solubility index by conductivity ». Cette méthode est elle-même dérivée des travaux de van Eekeren et coll. divulgués dans le document "
La réactivité d'un lait de chaux est donc évaluée par l'évolution au cours du temps de la mesure de la conductivité d'une solution préparée en diluant une petite quantité de lait de chaux dans un grand volume d'eau déminéralisée. On repère notamment les points correspondants à une conductivité de x % pour x % = 63 %, 80 %, 90 % and 95 % de la conductivité maximale en point final (voir EN12485(2010) §6.11.6.2). Le temps de dissolution correspondant t(x%) en s, est alors obtenu du graphique conductivité vs. temps (voir Figure 2 de EN12485(2010)).The reactivity of a milk of lime is therefore evaluated by the evolution over time of the measurement of the conductivity of a solution prepared by diluting a small quantity of milk of lime in a large volume of demineralised water. In particular, the points corresponding to a conductivity of x% are identified for x% = 63%, 80%, 90% and 95% of the maximum conductivity at the end point (see EN12485(2010) §6.11.6.2). The corresponding dissolution time , t(x%) in s, is then obtained from the graph conductivity vs. time (see Figure 2 of EN12485(2010)).
Il est connu que le taux de dissolution des particules de chaux dans l'eau déminéralisée est plus rapide (t(x%) plus petit) lorsque la taille des particules est plus petite. En d'autres termes, la réactivité du lait de chaux est généralement plus élevée lorsque ses particules constitutives sont plus petites.It is known that the dissolution rate of lime particles in demineralized water is faster (t(x%) smaller) when the particle size is smaller. In other words, the reactivity of milk of lime is generally higher when its constituent particles are smaller.
Dans un mode préféré du procédé selon la présente invention, lorsque ladite suspension minérale contient ou est un lait de chaux, celui-ci présente une réactivité exprimée sous la forme d'un temps de dissolution t(90%) supérieur à 0,1 s en particulier supérieur à 0,2 s et inférieur à 10 s, en particulier inférieur à 5 s.In a preferred mode of the process according to the present invention, when said mineral suspension contains or is a milk of lime, the latter has a reactivity expressed in the form of a dissolution time t (90%) greater than 0.1 s in particular greater than 0.2 s and less than 10 s, in particular less than 5 s.
Lorsque le lait de chaux présente une telle réactivité, les particules de chaux éteinte présentent une taille de particules suffisamment fines pour également contribuer à la formation d'une couche minérale fine, en particulier homogène, participant à la simplification du démoulage du laitier.When the milk of lime has such a reactivity, the particles of slaked lime have a sufficiently fine particle size to also contribute to the formation of a fine mineral layer, in particular homogeneous, contributing to the simplification of the demoulding of the slag.
Avantageusement, ledit lait de particules calciques présente une stabilité caractérisée par le test de la bouteille tel que décrit dans le document
Lesdits additifs de ladite suspension minérale sont choisis dans le groupe constitué des hydrates de carbone ainsi que des dispersants et des additifs fluidifiants, tels des polycarbonates ou des polyacrylates, , ou des polyphosphonates, en particulier du DTPMP.Said additives of said mineral suspension are chosen from the group consisting of carbohydrates as well as dispersants and plasticizing additives, such as polycarbonates or polyacrylates, or polyphosphonates, in particular DTPMP.
De façon avantageuse, lesdits additifs dispersants ou fluidifiants de ladite suspension minérale sont présents à une teneur massique comprise entre 0,2 et 5% par rapport au poids de ladite suspension minérale. Préférentiellement, la teneur en additifs susdits est inférieure ou égale à 3%, en particulier inférieure ou égale à 2%, plus particulièrement inférieure ou égale à 1,5% par rapport au poids de ladite suspension minérale. De préférence, la teneur en additifs susdits est supérieure ou égale à 0,5%, par rapport au poids de ladite suspension minérale.Advantageously, said dispersing or thinning additives of said mineral suspension are present at a mass content of between 0.2 and 5% relative to the weight of said mineral suspension. Preferably, the content of the aforementioned additives is less than or equal to 3%, in particular less than or equal to 2%, more particularly less than or equal to 1.5% relative to the weight of the said mineral suspension. Preferably, the content of the aforementioned additives is greater than or equal to 0.5%, relative to the weight of the said mineral suspension.
Dans le cas de la présence d'un hydrate de carbone, par exemple à une teneur comprise entre 0,2 et 3% de préférence entre 0,4 et 2 %, de manière plus préférentielle entre 0,5 et 1,5 %, de façon encore plus avantageuse entre 0,5% et 1% en poids par rapport au poids total de ladite suspension minérale, la suspension minérale est tapissée sur la paroi intérieure des cuves ou poches à laitier.In the case of the presence of a carbohydrate, for example at a content of between 0.2 and 3%, preferably between 0.4 and 2%, more preferably between 0.5 and 1.5%, even more advantageously between 0.5% and 1% by weight relative to the total weight of said mineral suspension, the mineral suspension is coated on the inner wall of the slag tanks or ladles.
Il est entendu que plusieurs additifs précités peuvent être présents dans la dite suspension minérale, en particulier un ou plusieurs hydrates de carbone avec un ou plusieurs agents dispersants ou fluidifiants.It is understood that several aforementioned additives may be present in said mineral suspension, in particular one or more carbohydrates with one or more dispersing or thinning agents.
Comme mentionné ci-avant, au moment de la pulvérisation de la suspension minérale, l'eau contenue dans la suspension s'évapore presque instantanément au contact de la parois chaude. Si la suspension minérale contient un hydrate de carbone, l'évaporation de l'eau contenue dans la suspension minérale provoque une augmentation rapide de la concentration en hydrate de carbone jusqu'à former une colle faible favorisant l'adhérence des particules calciques à la parois de la cuve à laitier, dû également à la température de la cuve ou poche à laitier, laquelle est supérieure à 100°C.As mentioned above, when the mineral suspension is sprayed, the water contained in the suspension evaporates almost instantaneously on contact with the hot wall. If the mineral suspension contains a carbohydrate, the evaporation of the water contained in the mineral suspension causes a rapid increase in the concentration of carbohydrate until it forms a weak glue favoring the adhesion of the calcium particles to the walls. of the slag tank, also due to the temperature of the slag tank or ladle, which is above 100°C.
Au moment du déversement du laitier dans la cuve ou poche à laitier, en sortie de four, la température du laitier produit une réaction de calcination de l'hydrate de carbone, éventuellement simultanément à la déshydratation de l'hydroxyde de calcium lorsque les particules calciques sont des particules de chaux éteinte ou de la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement hydratée, qui facilite le démoulage du laitier, ces phénomènes se produisant dès 500°C.When the slag is poured into the tank or slag ladle, on leaving the furnace, the temperature of the slag produces a reaction of calcination of the carbohydrate, possibly simultaneously with the dehydration of the calcium hydroxide when the calcium particles are particles of slaked lime or decarbonated dolomite at least partially hydrated, which facilitates the demolding of the slag, these phenomena occurring from 500°C.
En effet, la couche minérale fine formée par pulvérisation permet au moment du déversement du laitier dans la cuve ou poche à laitier de produire un plan de cisaillement derrière la couche minérale (à l'interface entre la paroi intérieure de la cuve ou poche à laitier et la couche minérale). Le plan de cisaillement peut être produit a priori car la présence de l'hydrate de carbone joue le rôle d'une colle faible, en comparaison de l'adhérence potentielle du laitier à la paroi intérieure de la cuve ou poche à laitier.Indeed, the fine mineral layer formed by spraying allows, when the slag is poured into the tank or slag ladle, to produce a shear plane behind the mineral layer (at the interface between the inner wall of the tank or slag ladle and the mineral layer). The shear plane can be produced a priori because the presence of the carbohydrate acts as a weak glue, compared to the potential adhesion of the slag to the inner wall of the slag vessel or ladle.
Ensuite, la couche minérale « collée » sur la paroi intérieure de la cuve ou poche à laitier est composée de particules minérales fines. La température de la cuve ou poche à laitier, juste avant le déversement du laitier présente une température typiquement de 100°C à 350°C, température à laquelle les particules minérales sont stables. La couche minérale peut donc être appliquée sur la cuve ou poche à laitier bien avant son utilisation. Les cuves ou poches à laitier ainsi revêtues, peuvent même être entreposéesThen, the mineral layer "stuck" on the inner wall of the slag tank or ladle is composed of fine mineral particles. The temperature of the tank or slag ladle, just before the pouring of the slag, typically has a temperature of 100° C. to 350° C., the temperature at which the mineral particles are stable. The mineral layer can therefore be applied to the slag tank or ladle well before it is used. The slag tanks or ladles thus coated can even be stored
Les dispersants ou les agents fluidifiants par exemple à une teneur entre 0 et 5 %, de préférence entre 0,05 et 3%, plus particulièrement entre 0,1 et 2%, peuvent être par exemple des additifs polymères ou minéraux comme par exemple des polymères anioniques ou des polymères acides, de l'acide borique et des sels solubles dans l'eau de l'acide borique, comme par exemple des borates de métal alcalin, des borates d'aluminium, des acides carboxyliques en C2 à C10, par exemple contenant au moins 2 groupes acides et les sels de ceux-ci, comme par exemple les sels de métaux alcalins ou les sels d'ammonium ; des hydroxydes, des carbonates, des sulfates, des nitrates, des phosphates, de métaux alcalins ou d'ammonium.The dispersants or the thinning agents, for example at a content between 0 and 5%, preferably between 0.05 and 3%, more particularly between 0.1 and 2%, can be, for example, polymer or mineral additives such as, for example, anionic polymers or acidic polymers, boric acid and water-soluble salts of boric acid, such as alkali metal borates, aluminum borates, C 2 -C 10 carboxylic acids , for example containing at least 2 acid groups and the salts thereof, such as for example alkali metal salts or ammonium salts; hydroxides, carbonates, sulphates, nitrates, phosphates, of alkali metals or of ammonium.

Dans un aspect non revendiqué, la présente invention se rapporte aussi à un procédé de manutention d'outil pyro-métallurgiques comprenant une paroi intérieure et une paroi extérieure, ledit procédé comprenant les étapes de
- a) Utilisation dudit outil pyro-métallurgique,
- b) Nettoyage dudit outil pyro-métallurgique,
- c) Pulvérisation d'une suspension minérale sur ladite paroi intérieure et/ou sur ladite paroi extérieure dudit outil pyro-métallurgique, préalablement à au moins une étape d'utilisation dudit outil pyro-métallurgique, de manière à tapisser ladite paroi intérieure et/ou ladite paroi extérieure d'une couche minérale, et

Ladite paroi extérieure est parfois appelée aussi chaudronnerie (« shell » en anglais ou « pantser » en néérlandais).Said outer wall is sometimes also called boilerwork (“shell” in English or “pantser” in Dutch).
Dans le même aspect non revendiqué, ce procédé est caractérisé en ce que ledit outil pyro-métallurgique est un outil fait d'acier ou de fonte et en ce que ladite suspension minérale comprend des particules calciques en suspension dans une phase aqueuse formant un lait de particules calciques, et éventuellement des additifs, lesdites particules calciques étant choisies dans le groupe constitué de la chaux éteinte, de la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement éteinte, du calcaire et de leurs mélanges et présentant une teneur en particules calciques comprise entre 20 et 60 % en poids par rapport au poids dudit lait de particules calciques, ladite couche minérale étant une couche fine.In the same unclaimed aspect, this method is characterized in that said pyro-metallurgical tool is a tool made of steel or cast iron and in that said mineral suspension comprises calcium particles in suspension in an aqueous phase forming a milk of calcium particles, and optionally additives, said calcium particles being chosen from the group consisting of slaked lime, at least partially slaked decarbonated dolomite, limestone and of their mixtures and having a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight relative to the weight of said milk of calcium particles, said mineral layer being a thin layer.
Comme on peut le constater, le procédé selon la présente invention se focalise sur les cuves en acier ou en fonte.As can be seen, the method according to the present invention focuses on steel or cast iron tanks.
En effet, dans le cadre de la présente invention, le choix concernant les poches ou cuves à laitier faites d'acier ou de fonte (et non de réfractaire), permet de tirer le meilleur parti de la différence de coefficient de dilatation entre les matériaux de type métallique formant les cuves ou poches à laitier et les oxydes de laitier.Indeed, in the context of the present invention, the choice concerning ladles or slag tanks made of steel or cast iron (and not of refractory), makes it possible to make the most of the difference in coefficient of expansion between the materials. of metallic type forming the slag tanks or ladles and the slag oxides.
Lorsque du lait de particules calciques choisies exclusivement dans le groupe restreint constitué de la chaux éteinte, de la dolomie décarbonatée au moins partiellement éteinte, du calcaire et de leurs mélanges présente une teneur en particules calciques comprise entre 20 et 60 % en poids, par rapport au poids total du lait de particules calcique est tapissé sur la paroi intérieure ou la paroi extérieure des outils pyro-métallurgiques, il se forme une couche minérale fine et homogène, et il a été remarqué de manière surprenante que la fréquence de maintenance de ces outils pyro-métallurgique était significativement réduite et plus aisée.When milk of calcium particles chosen exclusively from the restricted group consisting of slaked lime, at least partially slaked decarbonated dolomite, limestone and mixtures thereof has a content of calcium particles of between 20 and 60% by weight, relative to the total weight of the milk of calcium particles is lined on the inner wall or the outer wall of the pyro-metallurgical tools, a fine and homogeneous mineral layer is formed, and it has been surprisingly noticed that the frequency of maintenance of these tools pyro-metallurgy was significantly reduced and easier.
Dans une forme de réalisation particulière de cet aspect non revendiqué, le lait de particules calciques est un lait de chaux et lesdites particules calciques sont des particules de chaux éteinte.In a particular embodiment of this unclaimed aspect, the milk of calcium particles is a milk of lime and said calcium particles are particles of slaked lime.
Avantageusement, dans cet aspect non revendiqué, lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 comprise entre 1,5 µm et 10 µm.Advantageously, in this non-claimed aspect, said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 of between 1.5 μm and 10 μm.
De façon avantageuse, dans cet aspect non revendiqué, lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 inférieure ou égale à 8 µm, en particulier inférieure ou égale à 6 µm, plus particulièrement inférieure ou égale à 5 µm, tout particulièrement inférieure à 4 µm.Advantageously, in this unclaimed aspect, said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have a size mean of particles d 50 less than or equal to 8 μm, in particular less than or equal to 6 μm, more particularly less than or equal to 5 μm, very particularly less than 4 μm.
De façon avantageuse, dans cet aspect non revendiqué, lesdites particules calciques dans le lait de particules calciques de ladite suspension minérale présentent une taille moyenne de particules d50 supérieure ou égale à 2 µm, en particulier supérieure ou égale à 2,5 µm.Advantageously, in this aspect not claimed, said calcium particles in the milk of calcium particles of said mineral suspension have an average particle size d 50 greater than or equal to 2 μm, in particular greater than or equal to 2.5 μm.
La notation dX représente un diamètre, exprimé en µm, par rapport auquel X % des particules ou grains mesurées sont plus petites.The notation d X represents a diameter, expressed in µm, compared to which X % of the particles or grains measured are smaller.
Au plus les particules sont fines, au mieux se produit la réaction de libération de vapeur d'eau ou de CO2 qui permet le décollement du laitier tel qu'indiqué ci-avant.The finer the particles, the better the water vapor or CO 2 release reaction occurs which allows the slag to separate as indicated above.
La réactivité des laits de chaux est caractérisée au sens de la présente invention selon la norme européenne EN12485(2010), § 6.11 « Détermination of solubility index by conductivity ». Cette méthode est elle-même dérivée des travaux de van Eekeren et coll. divulgués dans le document "
La réactivité d'un lait de chaux est donc évaluée par l'évolution au cours du temps de la mesure de la conductivité d'une solution préparée en diluant une petite quantité de lait de chaux dans un grand volume d'eau déminéralisée. On repère notamment les points correspondants à une conductivité de x % pour x % = 63 %, 80 %, 90 % and 95 % de la conductivité maximale en point final (voir EN12485(2010) §6.11.6.2). Le temps de dissolution correspondant t(x%) en s, est alors obtenu du graphique conductivité vs. temps (voir Figure 2 de EN12485(2010)).The reactivity of a milk of lime is therefore evaluated by the evolution over time of the measurement of the conductivity of a solution prepared by diluting a small quantity of milk of lime in a large volume of demineralised water. In particular, the points corresponding to a conductivity of x% are identified for x% = 63%, 80%, 90% and 95% of the maximum conductivity at the end point (see EN12485(2010) §6.11.6.2). The corresponding dissolution time , t(x%) in s, is then obtained from the graph conductivity vs. time (see Figure 2 of EN12485(2010)).
Il est connu que le taux de dissolution des particules de chaux dans l'eau déminéralisée est plus rapide (t(x%) plus petit) lorsque la taille des particules est plus petite. En d'autres termes, la réactivité du lait de chaux est généralement plus élevée lorsque ses particules constitutives sont plus petites.It is known that the rate of dissolution of lime particles in demineralised water is faster (t(x%) smaller) when the size of the particles is smaller. In other words, the reactivity of milk of lime is generally higher when its constituent particles are smaller.
Dans un mode préféré de cet aspect non revendiqué, lorsque ladite suspension minérale contient ou est un lait de chaux, celui-ci présente une réactivité exprimée sous la forme d'un temps de dissolution t(90%) supérieur à 0,1 s en particulier supérieur à 0,2 s et inférieur à 10 s, en particulier inférieur à 5 s.In a preferred mode of this aspect not claimed, when said mineral suspension contains or is a milk of lime, the latter has a reactivity expressed in the form of a dissolution time t (90%) greater than 0.1 s in in particular greater than 0.2 s and less than 10 s, in particular less than 5 s.
Lorsque le lait de chaux présente une telle réactivité, les particules de chaux éteinte présentent une taille de particules suffisamment fines pour également contribuer à la formation d'une couche minérale fine, en particulier homogène, participant à la simplification du démoulage du laitier.When the milk of lime has such a reactivity, the particles of slaked lime have a sufficiently fine particle size to also contribute to the formation of a fine mineral layer, in particular homogeneous, contributing to the simplification of the demoulding of the slag.
