Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of reducing the sulfur impurity of molten ferrous metals. More particularly, the present invention is directed to the I desulfurization of molten iron through the injection therein of calcium carbide.
  • a method in accordance with the present invention comprises the injection of very finely divided calcium carbide in a gas stream at moderate velocities well below the surface of a bath of molten iron, whereby the sulfur content of the iron is efficiently reduced to 0.015% and lower without the requirement of followup agitation treatment.
  • the present invention is suitable for the treatment of tonnage quantities of molten iron.
  • finely divided calcium carbide is provided, substantially all of which is not larger than 200 microns, at least about 50 percent being not larger than about 50 microns and at least about percent being not larger than about 10 microns; and the aggregate of the finely divided calcium carbide having a Fischer sub-sieve number of of less than about 12.0.
  • the preferred sizing for the finely divided calcium carbide is substantially all not larger than 200 microns, at least about 60 percent being not larger than about 50 microns and at least about percent being not larger than about 10 microns, and the aggregate of the finely divided calcium carbide having a Fischer sub-sieve number of less than 7.5.
  • Calcium carbide material of this nature can be prepared by milling commercially available calcium carbide, e.g. fine grade calcium carbide, the particles of which are substantially all in the range of 0.6 millimeter to 0.074 millimeter.
  • Finely divided calcium carbide having the sizing described above in accordance with the present invention can be readily injected into molten iron using a device of the type schematically illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • finely divided calcium carbide powder 1 is charged from container 2 via valve 3 into dispensing vessel 5 having at its lower portion a conventional fluidizing mechanism indicated at 7, which can be one of the various commercially available devices.
  • Fluidizing gas e.g. nitrogen
  • transport injection gas which can be nitrogen, or any other gas or moisture free gas such as dry air is introduced via valve 11 and carries the finely divided calcium carbide through flexible hose conduit 13 into lance 15, suitable made of 1 /4 inches l.D. standard extra-heavy steel pipe protected by refractory brick sleeve 17.
  • lance 15 is positioned in vessel 19, shown as a conventional torpedo car, and immersed in sulfur-containing molten pig iron 21 covered by a slag layer 23.
  • the vessel illustrated ordinarily contains from about 100 to 250 tons of molten metal at depths of from 4 to 9 feet.
  • the ratio by weight of calcium carbide to injection gas is maintained in the range of to 140 because a ratio less than about 75 results in excessively long injection times and a ratio greater than 140 results in undesirably poor desulfurization efficiency.
  • the calcium carbide containing gas is injected in the lower 75 percent of the depth of the molten iron. In actual practice the lower 10 percent has provided excellent results.
  • the velocity of the gas entering the molten iron is preferably in the range of about 5 to 15 feet per second.
  • the injection of calcium carbide was continued for 8 minutes 45 seconds at which time the temperature of the molten iron was about 2510F. at the end of this treatment the sulfur content of the iron was 0.015%.
  • the total amount of finely divided material injected into the iron was 9.4 lbs. per ton of iron (2.95 lbs. per ton of iron per 0.01% S); the rate of injection was'134.9 pounds per minute.
  • the calcium carbide efficiency based on the CaC content of the material was 22.9%.
  • the average calcium carbide efficiency based on the CaC, content of the material used was about 21.5%
  • finely vdivided particles of calcium carbide in a gas stream substantially all of said finely divided particles of calcium carbide being not larger than 200 microns, at least about 50 percent of said particles being not; larger than 50 microns and at least 20 percent being not larger than 10 microns and the aggregate of said particles of calcium carbide having a Fischer sub-sieve number of less than about 12.
