JP6414564B2 - Piping clogging jig and piping clogging clearing method using the same - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a pipe clogging releasing jig and a pipe clogging releasing method using the same.

  In recent years, in blast furnaces, vertical reduction furnaces, and melting furnaces, powder fuel (indicated as pulverized coal, waste plastic, etc., hereinafter simply referred to as powder) is blown into the furnace by a blower tuyere. Operations to reduce units and stabilize furnace conditions are being implemented.

  Specifically, powder blowing is performed by placing a powder blowing pipe (lance) inside the blow pipe connected to the main part of the tuyere and placing it in the furnace from its tip under a specified pressure. It is to be ejected toward.

  By the way, if the pipe to be used for blowing powder is used to connect a branch pipe to the main pipe and mix different types of pipe, then the junction between the branch pipe and the main pipe is used. Has a defect that easily causes powder clogging.

  Conventionally, when powder is clogged in a pipe, the valve is closed on the upstream and downstream sides of the pressure release pipe connected to the pipe to keep the path between them sealed, while the pressure release pipe is opened to the atmosphere. The clogged powder is discharged from the depressurizing tube by repeating the operation (the pressure inside the furnace is higher than that in the atmosphere, so the clogged powder is removed using that pressure) or the clogging is still eliminated. If this is not possible, the pipe clogging was released by inserting a scraping bar from the pressure release pipe and scraping out the clogged powder, but the method of releasing the powder clogging using the pressure inside the furnace The removal of the powder may be delayed, the powder may melt at the tip of the lance due to the radiant heat in the furnace, and the jet outlet may be blocked. Accompanied by powder eruption from the extraction tube Because safety were those not be said to be high.

  As a prior art regarding this point, for example, Patent Document 1 proposes a pulverized fuel blowing method in which a high-pressure gas having a wind speed of 50 m / s or more is blown onto a tuyere inner peripheral surface.

  Patent Document 2 discloses a method in which the end of the suction tube inserted into the tuyere from the outer end of the tuyere reaches the powder clogging portion and the opposite end of the suction tube is connected to the suction source. Furthermore, Patent Document 3 discloses a method of driving a solid ball into the tuyere from the furnace outer end of the tuyere.
