Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for improving the reduction degree of metal components in a material to be treated when smelting ferroalloy, as ferrochrome suitable for manufacturing of stainless steel. According to the method nickel-bearing material is fed into ferroalloy.
  • Heat treated objects can be downsized, when desired, when conveying object between separate process stages or process units.

  • WO patent publication 2010/092234 thus relates mainly to the production of nickel-containing pellets by sintering. Instead, smelting conditions of the sintered pellets are not exactly described.
  • nickel containing in pellets catalyses chromium reduction in pellets and thus decreases the specific consumption, advantageous carbon, of the reducing agent in the ferroalloy production.
  • nickel containing in pellets not only catalyses the reduction of chromium in chromite pellets, but nickel containing in the feed of a furnace used for smelting of chromite improves in the smelting process the reduction of all essential metal components, iron, chromium and nickel, containing in the feed of the smelting furnace.
  • the object of the present invention is to utilize this surprising finding and to achieve a more effective method than before for increasing the reduction degree in the smelting process of chromite material in which method the reduction of metal components in chromite during the smelting is improved by alloying into the material to be gone into smelting nickel-containing material and simultaneously to achieve a prealloy, ferrochromenickel, suitable to the production of stainless steel.
  • the essential features are enlisted in the appended claims.
  • the invention is alloyed into the raw material, as chromite, to be smelted in the ferroalloy production before the smelting nickel-containing material, in which case nickel-containing improves the reduction of metal components containing in the feed material simultaneously when nickel-containing material itself is managed to be reduced as a metallic component in the ferroalloy.
  • nickel-containing improves the reduction of metal components containing in the feed material simultaneously when nickel-containing material itself is managed to be reduced as a metallic component in the ferroalloy.
  • the nickel amount to be added into the ferroalloy it can advantageously be adjusted the reduction degree of metal components in the ferroalloy and simultaneously be achieved a ferroalloy containing the desired nickel content, as ferrochromenickel alloys having different nickel contents.
  • Ferrochromenickel alloys containing desired nickel contents can be used for instance for the production of different stainless steels, as austenitic or duplex stainless steels.
  • the method according to the invention can be used as a nickel-containing raw material at least partly nickel oxide, at least partly nickel ore and/or nickel concentrate or at least partly a nickel-containing intermediate product achieved by the leaching and/or by precipitating of nickel ores and/or nickel concentrates.
  • the nickel-containing raw material is fed into a smelting process together with ferrochrome raw material. Before feeding into a smelting furnace the nickel-containing raw material is pretreated either so that sintered pellets are formed from the nickel-containing material together with the ferrochrome raw material or so that the nickel-containing raw material is pretreated separately to chromite pellets.
  • the pretreatment of the nickel-containing raw material also so that one part of the nickel-containing raw material to be fed into the smelting furnace is pretreated together with chromite pellets and one part of the nickel-containing raw material is pretreated separately to chromite pellets. Thanks to different pretreatments the nickel-containing raw material to be fed into the smelting furnace and promoting the reduction of different metal components can be for instance partly nickel-containing hydroxide intermediate product, partly sulphidic or lateritic nickel concentrate.
  • the nickel-containing raw material to be utilized in the method according to the invention is advantageously a nickel-containing hydroxide intermediate product from mines or other hydrometallurgical processes, which intermediate product is precipitated from solutions of lateritic and/or sulphidic nickel ores and/or nickel-containing concentrates of sulphidic ores.
