Conventional electric furnace operation leaves unmelted scrap in the slag line and sump, and also tends to generate oxide scale, which easily generates molten oxides, which increases melting temperature and damages refractories. There is a problem of promotion. In addition, conventional molten steel in an electric furnace requires little stirring, is difficult to degas, and takes a long time to melt.
This results in an increase in power consumption. The present invention is intended to solve the above problems,
To provide a scrap melting operation method capable of homogenizing molten steel by increasing the stirring effect to suppress the generation of oxide scale and reduce furnace consumption, as well as shorten melting time and reduce power consumption. With the goal. (Means for Solving the Problems) Therefore, the present invention provides a method for melting steel scrap using an electric furnace, in which a bottom-blown oxygen blowing nozzle and a burner are used to melt steel scrap in a melting furnace separate from the electric furnace. It is characterized by melting and injecting the molten steel into an electric furnace. (Function) When steel scrap is melted and refined in an electric furnace,
First, the first steel scrap is charged into an electric furnace and melted. Next, when melting the same amount of steel scrap as the first charge as the second charge, about two-thirds of it is charged into an electric furnace and heated until it becomes a semi-molten state. On the other hand, about 1/3 of the remaining steel is melted on coke in another melting furnace using gas and petroleum fuel, and this molten steel is added to the electric furnace in the molten state. This agitates the molten steel in the electric furnace, which has the effect of melting unmelted scrap and promoting degassing.In addition, since some petroleum-based fuel is used, it shortens operating time and reduces power consumption. Since coke is used as a reducing agent,
The inside of the furnace becomes a reducing atmosphere and the oxidation heat of coke is absorbed, so the life of the furnace materials can be extended. [Example] Hereinafter, an example will be described with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 is a sectional view of an electric furnace for metal melting, and Figure 2 is a sectional view of the melting furnace. In the figure, 1 is an electric furnace, 2 is an electrode,
3 is a hearth, 4 is a scrap molten metal, 5 is unmelted scrap, 11 is a melting furnace, 12 is a hearth, 13 is a downward blowing oxygen blowing nozzle, 14 is a furnace lid, 15 is a burner,
16 is scrap, 17 is molten steel, and 18 is coke. First, as shown in Figure 1, a scrap 4 of 30 mt is placed in an electric furnace 1 with a nominal furnace capacity of 60 mt.
was charged and energized to dissolve it. to dissolve
It took 30 minutes. Next, out of the 30 mt of scrap that was previously charged in the second round, 20 mt was charged and electricity was applied to melt the scrap until it became molten. It took 10 minutes to reach a molten state. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2, coke 18 is first charged into another melting furnace 11 in which a downward blowing oxygen blowing nozzle 13 is provided on the hearth 12 and a burner 15 is inserted from the furnace lid 14, and then coke 18 is charged into the electric furnace. 10 US tons of scrap charged for the second time in 1.
Charge. The charged coke 18 acts as a reducing agent, lowers the melting point of the steel, and has a favorable effect on the life of the furnace refractories. Then, the burner 15 burns the petroleum fuel with pure oxygen, blows this flame onto the scrap 16, and blows oxygen and diluent gas such as air, nitrogen, argon, etc. into the porous form from the downward oxygen blowing nozzle 13 of the hearth 12. Blow through the plug to dissolve the scrap 16. The scrap molten steel melted in the melting furnace 11 is charged into the electric furnace 1 when the second charge of 20 mt of scrap becomes molten, and electricity is further applied for 5 minutes for adjustment. It took. Finally, reduction refining is performed and the steel is tapped. The new operation examples are summarized in Table 2 below.As is clear from the comparison with Table 1 for the conventional method, even though the amount of melting is the same, the time required can be significantly shortened, and the amount of electricity used can be significantly reduced. This also greatly contributes to savings.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, unmelted scrap remains in the slag line in the conventional electric furnace, but it disappears as the molten steel charged from the melting furnace is stirred, and the furnace volume increases. It can be used effectively, and it is advantageous for degassing and homogenizing the steel. Furthermore, the melting in the melting furnace is highly reducing and the melting temperature is lowered, which lengthens the life of the furnace material, making it possible to shorten the operating time and reduce power consumption accordingly.
