The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing steelmaking sintered ore using a die-type sintering machine, and more particularly, when manufacturing steelmaking sintered ore, solid fuel such as sintered powdered coke is supplied to the surface layer of the raw material filling layer to provide a sintered raw material layer. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing sintered ore for ironworks, in which a recovery rate for improving the strength of sintered ore is increased by increasing the calorific heat amount and melt generation amount of the surface layer portion.

In general, DL (Dwight Lloyd) type sintering process adds powdered iron ore, secondary raw material, and powdered coke, which is a heat source, into a drum mixer, and mixes and mixes the sintered blend raw material by performing humidity control of about 6 to 7% of the weight of the raw material. Let's do it. Such a sintered blended raw material is charged to a sintering machine bogie at a certain height, surface ignited by an ignition furnace, and forced suction of air from below leads to sintering of the sintered blended raw material and to produce a sintered ore. After sintering is completed, the sintered ore is cooled by a crusher (Crusher) of the light distribution unit, cooled to a cooler, classified into a particle size of about 5 to 50 mm, which is easy for charging and reaction into the blast furnace, and then transferred to the blast furnace. At this time, less than 5mm of the spectral generated during the sintering and sintering process of the sintered ore is classified as semi-mineral and reused as sintered raw material, the amount of semi-mineral determines the sinter recovery rate.

The recovery rate of the sintered ore is affected by various factors such as the amount of heat supplied, the amount of binding slag, the strength and the porosity of the sintered ore, and the weak layer in the surface layer of the sintered bed significantly lowers the recovery rate of the sintered ore. This fragile layer is present in the surface layer portion from about 50 to 100 mm from the surface of the sintered raw material filling layer. The reason for the formation of the fragile layer is that in the sintering process, inevitably room temperature air is drawn from the top of the sintering raw material filling layer, so that the combustion of coke in the sintering raw material is terminated before the ore is heated to the high temperature necessary for melting the slag component. Because it becomes. Therefore, the surface layer portion of the sintered bed exhibits a weaker sintered ore property than the lower layer portion due to the lowering of the firing temperature during the firing process, the insufficient amount of melt production, and the lowering of the material filling density, and thus, the lowering of the recovery rate.

As a method for improving the strength of the surface layer portion of the sintered bed, it is possible to refine the particle size of the powdered coke used as the sintered fuel and segregate fine powder coke into the upper layer of the sintered raw material to increase the coke concentration of the upper layer portion. However, this method is difficult to control segregation loading, it is not possible to increase the concentration of fine coke only in the surface layer portion of the sintered bed, and the filling layer is excessively melted over a large area including the lower layer portion, so that it is difficult to obtain the expected effect. In addition, when the raw material is charged, the fine coke is attached to the raw material having a large particle and is charged into the lower part of the sintered bed.

Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and when using a die-type sintering machine to produce a sintered ore as a raw material for steelmaking blast furnace for sintering as a heat source that can promote the formation of melt in the sintered bed Solid fuel such as powdered coke is supplied to the surface layer of raw material filling layer (depth of about 50 to 100mm) using a bidirectional screw feeder, guide plate and wind power distribution unit at the front end of the cut-off plate for post-layer control of the charging device. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for producing a sintered ore for iron making which has an improved recovery rate to increase the sintered ore strength by increasing the calorific heat and melt generation amount.

In order to achieve the above object of the present invention, there is provided a method for producing a sintered ore for manufacturing steel with improved recovery provided by a die-type sintering machine. As a heat source capable of promoting the formation of the melt, the sintered powdered coke is supplied to the surface layer of the raw material filling layer having a depth of approximately 50 to 100 mm at the front end of the charge-off cut-off plate of the charging device, thereby increasing the calorific value of the calcined heat and the amount of melt generated. It is characterized by improving the strength.

Various features and advantages of the invention, which will be described in connection with the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings, will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

As shown in the schematic diagram of the heat source addition apparatus of FIG. 1, the apparatus is mainly a pressurizing unit for conveying the crushed coke transported from a tank coke, a storage hopper for storing and quantifying the conveyed crushed coke, It consists of the bidirectional screw feeder 10 which can supply powder coke uniformly in the width direction of a coke feed pipe and a sintering machine, the guide plate 12, the wind power distribution unit 14, etc.

In addition, arrow A shows the movement direction of a trolley | bogie, B shows the flow of powdered coke, and C shows the flow of a fine raw material. The fine raw material is guided along the segregation guide plate 30 via the surge hopper 26 associated with the drum feeder 28 and passes through the slit bar 52 of the chute, as shown in FIG. 1.

As shown in FIG. 2, the screw feeder 10, which is a powder feeder, includes a drive motor 32, a bidirectional screw 34, a powdered coke cutout 36, and a powdered coke feeder 38. In the branch coke cutout 36, five cutouts 36 are formed in a length of about 400 mm and a width of about 10 to 15 mm between the center and the end in consideration of the widthwise filling state of the powdered coke in the screw feeder. These cutouts 36 are stepped so that the angles are 15 degrees, 25 degrees, 35 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees from the screw feeder center line, and the tip cutouts 36 of the bidirectional screw feeders are transferred to All the coke can be discharged so that no load is applied to the drive motor during operation.

On the other hand, the guide plate 12 functions to transfer the powdered coke dropped from the screw feeder to the fine powder raw material drop, it is possible to adjust the angle. In addition, the wind dispersion unit 14 is provided with 30 air spray nozzles in the width direction at intervals of 150 mm, and the air injected through the nozzle functions to disperse and inject powder coke into the fine powder dropping portion.

The present invention is a bidirectional screw feeder (10), guide plate (12) at the front end of the cut-off plate (16) for post-layer control of the sintered powdered coke, which is a heat source capable of promoting melt formation in the sintered raw material layer (18). And the wind dispersion unit 14 to supply the surface layer of the raw material filling layer having a depth of approximately 50 to 100 mm to form the high carbonization region 20 of the surface layer of the sintered raw material layer. The powdered coke supplied to the surface layer of the sintered raw material layer is surface complexed by the ignition furnace, and then the firing temperature and the high temperature holding time are increased in the surface layer to increase the calorific value and the melt production amount and improve the bond strength between the iron ore particles. In this case, the recovery rate of the weak surface layer sintered ore can be improved.
