Definitions
- the chemical composition depends very much on where the manganese ore was found and mined.
- the preferred manganese ore used comprises, for example, in oxidic form: manganese with at least 30%, in particular at least 35%, preferably at least 40%; Remainder at least one or more of the components in oxidic form: iron, silicon, aluminum, calcium and/or magnesium and impurities, the impurities amounting to up to 5% and for example at least one of the components sulfur, phosphorus, lead and/or zinc can contain .
- Reduced manganese ore means that there is a reduction or a degree of metallization of at least 60%, in particular at least 70%, preferably at least 80%.
- the manganese-containing melt is essentially produced from the reduced manganese ore in the electric furnace.
- the electric furnace can also be supplied with additives or additives, in particular in the form of iron-containing scrap, in order to produce iron-manganese-containing melts, for example, if there is not enough iron in the manganese ore.
- Steels with a high manganese content can preferably be produced from these melts. If necessary, further additives can be added to achieve the desired target composition of the melt.
- the hydrogen-containing reducing gas essentially consists of hydrogen and is optionally carbon-free.
- the reduction work can be carried out all the more effectively and when only hydrogen is used and thus no carbon is used, no carbon can be deposited in and/or on the manganese ore or the reduced manganese ore cannot be enriched with carbon during the reduction.
- Hydrogen can be generated in different ways, for example by reforming processes or water electrolysis. The industrial production of hydrogen is energy-intensive, so that renewable energies (wind, water, sun, biomass) or low-carbon energies (nuclear energy) are preferably used.
- the melting is carried out in a temperature range between 1300°C and 2000°C. At least 1300°C must be set in order to be able to melt the reduced manganese ore.
- a higher temperature can be selected in order in particular to be able to melt additives or additives with, for example, higher melting points than 1300°C.
- the temperature is to be limited to 2000° C., in particular to a maximum of 1800° C., preferably to a maximum of 1700° C., in order to essentially avoid evaporation of manganese and to avoid the formation of carbides.
- the reduction zone is arranged above a cooling zone in the shaft furnace, with a cooling gas flowing through the cooling zone.
- the process gas which has been freed from carbon dioxide can be used partially or completely, represented by dashed lines, as (partial) gas b) for firing the gas heater (30). If not enough (partial) gas b) is available, a corresponding fuel gas is made available partially or completely to fire the gas heater (30).
- the process gas that has been freed from carbon dioxide or the recycled, processed gas (RG) can also be fed back into the direct reduction process in a further process step, either additionally or alternatively, by being mixed with the fresh gas (FG), in particular before the mixture is mixed in the gas heater (30). a temperature between 500 and 1200 °C is heated.
- the hot reduction gas (41) can also be supplied with oxygen (O 2 ) in order to increase the reactivity of the hydrogen-containing reduction gas (41) in the reduction zone (11) and thus the heat input.
- the cooling gas (42) can include, for example, a hydrogen-containing cooling gas or an inert gas (N 2 ).
- the reduced and cooled manganese ore (Mn) can be removed in the lower area of the shaft furnace (10) and fed to further processing in a known manner.
- a cooling zone (12) through direct hot application is therefore preferably not necessary.
- the process gas (40) discharged from the shaft furnace (10) above the reduction zone (11) is, as shown in Figure 1, after its "dehumidification” completely fed to the gas heater (30) as fuel gas (as gas a)), shown in dashed lines, and is not added to the fresh gas (FG) and mixed with it.
- the invention can also be carried out in a cascade of fluidized bed reactors.
- At least one fluidized bed reactor forms a reduction zone and, depending on the circumstances and if hot use is not possible, at least one further fluidized bed reactor in the cascade can be used as a cooling zone.
- the manganese ore would in a first fluidized bed reactor, possibly also in a second and optionally in a third fluidized bed reactor, successively pass through as a cooling zone and be gradually converted into reduced manganese ore.
- the reduced manganese ore can be cooled using cooling gas.
- the principle essentially corresponds to that of a shaft furnace, but distributed over several fluidized bed reactors instead of one shaft.
- the number of fluidized bed reactors can be interconnected as required.
