Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide a method for under-load softening test of ore by which the difference in indirect reduced amount between various kinds of ore can be distinguished at a low cost. CONSTITUTION: An ore layer 4 is formed by spreading ceramic balls 6 on the bottom of a carbon-made container 3 and putting ore on the balls 6. A fibrous ceramic material 5 is put between the carbon-made side wall of the container 3 and ore layer 4. The reduction rate of the ore is found from the chemical composition of the exhaust gas from the container 3 by introducing a reducing gas into the container 3 at 1,000-1,400 deg.C while a load is applied to the ore by using a carbon-made push rod 2. Therefore, the indirect reduction rate of the ore in a blast furnace can be measured with accuracy and, at the same time, the cost per one test can be reduced.

Thereafter, the temperature is raised at a rate of 5 to 10 ° C./min while flowing an inert gas such as N 2 from the lower portion of the carbon container 3, and when the temperature reaches a predetermined temperature, the inert gas is switched to the reducing gas. This temperature is usually 800 to 1000 ° C. The composition of the exhaust gas is analyzed from the time of switching to the reducing gas, and the reduction rate is calculated. The reducing gas is usually CO and N 2.

The reduction reaction of ore is represented by the following equations (1) to (3).
Of the indirect reduction reaction of (4) to (6) and the direct reduction reaction of the equation (2). Therefore, the amount of O (oxygen atom) contained in the gas is calculated from the composition of the reducing gas before and after the reaction, and the amount of O (oxygen atom) contained in the gas after the reaction, that is, the amount of O contained in the exhaust gas is calculated in the reducing gas before the reaction. By subtracting the amount of O contained in, the amount of O removed from the ore by the reduction reaction can be known.
In the case of gas containing H 2 , CH 4, etc., basically, the amount of O removed from the ore can be calculated in the same manner. On the other hand, the amount of O contained in the ore before being reduced can be determined by performing a chemical analysis of the ore in advance. Normal 800

Further, as the temperature rises, the ore softens and melts and contracts. The shrinkage behavior is also one of high temperature properties, and the shrinkage allowance is measured at predetermined time intervals or continuously. The shrinkage allowance of the ore is represented by the displacement of the carbon push rod 2. Then, the shrinkage rate defined by the following equation 4 is obtained. When the temperature at which the ore has completely melted is reached, the reducing gas is switched to an inert gas and cooled.

However, in the conventional load softening test method, as shown in FIG. 2, the upper and lower portions of the ore layer 4 contact the coke layer 1 and the side portions contact the carbon container 3. . This is because the ore is sandwiched between coke layers in the actual blast furnace, but the high-temperature properties of the ore greatly differ depending on whether or not it is in contact with carbon.
The reason is that when carbon is in contact with the unreduced part of the ore or the semi-reduced part up to wustite, (1)
This is because the direct reduction reaction of the formulas (4) to (6) is caused in addition to the reaction of the formulas (3) to (3). Further, when the ore and the carbon are in contact with each other, the amount of carburization into the metallic iron produced by the reduction of the ore is larger than the amount of carburization due to the CO gas alone, so that the melting point of the metallic iron lowers. On the other hand, when the ore and carbon are in direct contact, the reduction rate is higher than in the case where they are not in contact, so the amount of iron oxide dissolved in the slag decreases, and the slag dropping start temperature is high because the slag agglomeration is delayed. Become. For the above reasons, the high temperature properties of ores differ depending on whether ore and carbon are in contact.

However, in the blast furnace, the amount of ore that comes into contact with the coke, which is carbon, is less than 10 wt%, and most of the ores undergo only indirect reduction until the ore melts / drops. Therefore, the high-temperature properties of ores strongly depend on the amount of indirect reduction. Therefore, in order to strictly simulate the reaction actually occurring in the blast furnace, it is necessary to match the ratios of contact between ore and carbon, but the inner diameter of the crucible is 6
In the conventional small load softening test of 0 mm or less, the ratio of the ore in contact with carbon was 4 compared to the total ore weight used in the test.
Since it is as large as 0 to 70 wt%, it cannot be said that it is close to the blast furnace conditions. Therefore, in order to accurately simulate the reaction in the blast furnace, increase the sample weight used in the test,
It was necessary to reduce the proportion of ore in contact with carbon compared to the total ore weight.

Conventionally, 500 to 1000 g of ore and about 100 g of coke have been used to bring the contact ratio of ore and carbon close to that in a blast furnace. A container having an inner diameter of about 85 to 120 mm is required to put such an amount of ore and coke, and accordingly, an inner diameter of the reaction tube of the test apparatus is also required to be 120 mm or more. Therefore, the test equipment becomes large-scale, and the cost required for one test becomes very high. Furthermore, even with such an apparatus, the proportion of ore in contact with carbon is as high as 30 to 40 wt%, which is not necessarily close to the conditions in the blast furnace. For this reason,
The contribution of the direct reduction reactions (4) to (6) becomes large, and the difference in the indirect reduction amount by the ore becomes unclear. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a load softening test method capable of accurately measuring the indirect reduction amount of ore with a small amount of ore.

Introducing a reducing gas into a carbon container at ~ 1400 ° C,
In the load softening test method of the ore for obtaining the reduction rate of the ore from the exhaust gas composition, ceramics is arranged between the carbon wall of the carbon container and the carbon push rod and the ore layer, and the load softening test is performed. This is a load softening test method for ores. It is preferable to dispose fibrous ceramics between the ore layer and the carbon side wall of the carbon container and to dispose ceramic balls between the carbon container bottom and the ore layer and between the carbon push rod and the ore layer. . The ore means iron ore, sinter, and pellets.

The high temperature property of ore is closely related to the reduction rate of ore up to 1250 ° C. That is, when the temperature rises above 1000 ° C., the ore starts to soften / shrink, but under the condition that it does not come into direct contact with carbon like most of the ore charged to the blast furnace, the amount of carburizing CO into the metallic iron is 0. The melting point is as high as about 1500 ° C. because it is extremely low at 0.3% or less, and metallic iron produced by reduction plays a role of a skeleton and functions to suppress shrinkage. In addition, mainly CaO- generated from about 1200 ℃
Iron oxide amount to be dissolved in the melt of the SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -FeO system depends on the ore reduction ratio of up to 1250 ° C.. That is, since the amount of remaining wustite in the ore having a low reduction rate is large, the condition becomes that the wustite is easily dissolved in the melt, and the amount of melt increases. Ore having a high reduction rate has a small amount of remaining wustite, which makes it difficult to dissolve wustite in the melt, and the amount of melt does not increase so much. Since the melt blocks the pores, the passage of the reducing gas is lost, and the indirect reduction reaction (3) hardly progresses at a certain temperature or higher. 1000
Above 2 ° C, Fe 2 O 3 and Fe 3 O 4 are reduced to FeO, so reactions (1) and (2) need not be considered. Experiments show that the indirect reduction reaction (3) hardly progresses at 1350 ° C. or higher. Therefore,
The high-temperature property of the ore can be estimated by measuring the reduction rate when the indirect reduction reaction (3) hardly progresses. Also, the test is discontinued at 1400 ° C. 140
Above 0 ° C, the indirect reduction reaction (3) hardly progresses,
This is also because the amount of melt oozing from the sample may increase and contact the carbon. Therefore, the measurement is 100
It is carried out at 0 to 1400 ° C.

According to the present invention, 90 of ore charged to the blast furnace is used.
Focusing on the fact that more than wt% of ore does not come into contact with carbon until it melts, we set the ore and carbon in a non-contact state and made a test method in which only an indirect reduction reaction occurs. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, an ore layer 4 is sandwiched between ceramic balls 6 that are hard to react with ore such as zirconia or alumina instead of coke, and a fibrous ceramics is provided between the carbon wall of the carbon container 3 and the ore layer 4. 5 is put and a load softening test is performed. The reason why the ceramics placed above and below the ore layer 4 are spherical is that the load is smoothly and uniformly applied to the ore, and the reason why the ceramics sandwiched between the ore layer 4 and the carbon wall is fibrous is as follows. This is so that the ceramics can shrink as the ore shrinks. If the ceramic sandwiched between the ore layer 4 and the carbon wall is made non-shrinkable, the ceramic will support the load and the ore will not be loaded. The fibrous ceramic 5 has heat resistance up to 1400 ° C. For example, 50% by weight or more of alumina and 50% of silica
Fibrous ceramics of up to wt% are preferred. The diameter of the ceramic balls 6 is preferably 4 to 10 mm.
This is because if it is less than 4 mm, the ventilation resistance increases, and if it exceeds 10 mm, the gas may not be sufficiently preheated. In the conventional small load softening test method, the proportion of ore in contact with carbon is 40 to 70 wt% compared to the total ore weight used in the test.
%, Which is far from the condition of less than 10 wt% in the blast furnace, but since the method of the present invention can measure the ore and the carbon in a non-contact state, the indirect reduction amount by the ore becomes clear. .

The weight of the test ore is 15 to 80 g. If the amount is less than 15 g, the amount of the sample is small, so that there are problems such as a variation in the sample and an error in measuring the oxygen amount due to the small amount of oxygen to be reduced. If it exceeds 80 g, it is difficult to reduce the size of the test apparatus, and the test cannot be performed at low cost.

Comparative Example 1 As before, 700 g of a sintered ore having a particle size of 12 ± 1 mm was sandwiched between coke and placed in a carbon container having an inner diameter of 120 mm to bring the sintered ore into contact with the carbon wall. After the carbon container was set in the load softening device, a load of 1 kgf / cm 2 was applied, and N 2 was 28 liters / mi.

Exhaust gas analysis was performed every 5 minutes from the time when the temperature reached 800 ° C., and the reduction rate of the sinter was calculated. The shrinkage rate and the pressure loss were constantly measured. In this example, the reduction rate, shrinkage rate, and pressure loss up to 1550 ° C. could be measured, but the cost per test was 10 to 20 times that of Examples 1 and 2. The time required for one test took 2 days from the setting of the sample to the completion of the maintenance of the device.

Comparative Example 2 As in the conventional case, 36 g of a sintered ore having a particle size of 12 ± 1 mm was sandwiched between coke and placed in a carbon container having an inner diameter of 42 mm, and the sintered ore and the carbon wall were brought into contact with each other. The sinter was previously reduced to a wustite reduction rate of about 30%. After setting the carbon container in the load softening tester, a load of 1 kgf / cm 2 was applied and the temperature was raised at 7 ° C / min while flowing N 2 at 4 l / min. 10
At 00 ° C., N 2 was changed to a reducing gas of CO / N 2 = 30/70, and a flow rate of 4 liters / min was flown. The temperature rise was stopped at 1350 ° C., the reducing gas was changed to N 2 , and the sample was rapidly cooled. During this period, exhaust gas analysis and shrinkage measurement were performed every 5 minutes from the time when the temperature reached 1000 ° C., and the reduction rate and shrinkage rate of the sinter were calculated. Sinter Ore A and Sinter Ore B used in Example 1
In the test result, since the sample was in contact with carbon and the reduction rate was high, the difference in the reduction rate between the sintered ore A and the sintered ore B was unclear. In Comparative Example 2, the cost per test was about the same as that of the method of the present invention, but the reduction rate was high, and therefore the difference in the high temperature properties due to the ore was not clear.

It is possible in principle to specify the ratio of the direct reduction amount and the indirect reduction amount in Comparative Examples 1 and 2 by calculating N 2 balance and calculating the increase in gas volume by direct reduction.
