Description

METHOD FOR HEATING A FURNACE
The invention relates to a method for heating a furnace comprising radiant tubes.
During its manufacturing, a steel strip undergoes thermal treatments to achieve the desired properties. The thermal treatment installations comprise heating means such as Direct Fire Furnace (DFF), Drop Tube Furnace (DTF) and Radiant Tubes Furnace (RTF).
For some thermal treatments, such as annealing, the use of radiant tubes furnace is preferred. Indeed, in such furnace, the strip does not come in direct contact with the combustion products of the flame. Moreover ,it allows to control the atmosphere inside the furnace.
Radiant tubes are normally fired using gaseous fuels or oil. However, recent developments led to radiant tubes consuming H2 and O2 to generate heat. Unfortunately, the production of H2 from natural resources requires a lot of energy and lead to greenhouse gas emissions.
Consequently, there is a need to develop a method for heating a furnace comprising radiant tubes having a reduced impact on the environment.
This is achieved by providing a method according to any one of the claims 1 to 7. This is also achieved by providing an installation according to any one of the claims 8 to 12.
Other characteristics and advantages will become apparent from the following description of the invention.
The present invention relates to a method for heating a furnace comprising radiant tubes and being able to thermally treat a running steel strip comprising the steps of: i. supplying at least one of said radiant tubes with H2 and O2 such that said H2 and said O2 get combined into heat and steam, ii. recovering said steam from said at least one of said radiant tubes, iii. electrolysing said steam so as to produce H2 and O2, iv. supplying at least one of said radiant tubes with said H2 and O2 produced in step iii, such that they get combined into heat and steam.
The method for heating a furnace refers to a method for providing heat to the inside of a furnace so as to achieve a temperature allowing thermal treatment of a running steel strip. The method is performed in an installation, as illustrated in Figure 1, having a furnace 1 comprising radiant tubes 2, an electrolysing device 3 able to electrolyse steam and to produce H2 and O2, such as a Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cells (SOEC), and pipes (not represented in Figure 1). Optionally, the installation can comprise pumping system to ease the flow of the gases.
The radiant tubes are connected, via pipes, to the electrolysing device such that at least two flux of gas (4 and 4’) can flow from the electrolysing device to the furnace, e.g. to the radiant tubes, and one flux of gas 5 can flow from the furnace, e.g. the radiant tubes, to the electrolysing device. Moreover, the furnace is preferably connected to means able to supply H2 and O2 such as an external supply of H2 and to an external supply of O2.
Optionally, storage means can be used between the furnace and the electrolysing device so as to store, at least partly, at least one of the products of the electrolysis.
The furnace is designed to perform thermal treatment of a steel strip such as an annealing. Preferably, the furnace is an annealing furnace.
In the step i., as illustrated in Figure 1, at least a radiant tube is supplied with H2 and O2. Those two gases are combined by the radiant tube into heat and steam. The H2 and O2 are supplied from a storage and/or from the electrolysing device. The steam is essentially composed of H2O molecules.
In the step ii., the steam is recovered from the radiant tube so as to be used in a further step.
However, H2 and/ or O2 can be present in the steam due to incomplete combustion and/ or not optimal O2/H2 ratio. Also, the steam can comprise residues from past combustion inside the radiant tube. This is especially true if the radiant tube has been operated with oil or natural gas.
In step iii., the steam recovered in step ii., is electrolysed to produce H2 and O2. A portion of the produced H2 and O2 can be flown to storage means.
Preferably, said electrolysis is performed by means of at least one solid oxide electrolyser cell. As illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, a solid oxide electrolyser cell uses a solid ceramic material as an electrolyte 11 that selectively conducts negatively charged oxygen ions (O2") or positively charged hydrogen protons (H+) depending on the membrane type, e.g. oxygen-ion conducting membrane or proton-conducting membrane respectively). The steam at the cathode 12 combines with electrons from the external circuit to form hydrogen gas and negatively charged oxygen ions. The reaction at the cathode is thus : H2O +2e — H2 + O2 . As the steam can comprises other gases and/resior residues, the H2 exiting the electrolysing device can be filtered by means of a membrane separator 14 as illustrated in Figure 3.
Then the charged oxygen ions pass through the solid ceramic membrane 11 and react at the anode 13 to form oxygen gas and generate electrons for the external circuit. The reaction at the anode is thus : 2 O2 — O2 + 4e'.
This is preferably performed at elevated temperature and permits to generate hydrogen and oxygen from steam.
This electrolysis reaction is endothermic, so it requires an external energy input for it to occur, e.g. heat and/ or electricity. Therefore, it is particularly advantageous to do this electrolysis with steam exiting a furnace having a high temperature.
In step iv., at least one radiant tube of the installation is supplied with H2 and O2 produced in the step iii.
Preferably, in step ii., the recovered steam is heated to a temperature from 650°C to 1000°C. Even more preferably, the recovered steam is heated to a temperature from 700°C to 1000°C. Such a heating of the recovered steam permits to increase the efficiency of a SOEC.
In this case, the installation comprises a heating means able to heat the recovered steam. Preferably, in step ii. said heating of said recovered steam is performed by heating means being powered in part or all by CO2 neutral electricity.
For example, the heating means can be a heat exchanger 7 connected to the radiant tube and the electrolysing device so as to heat a gas flow from the radiant tube before entering the electrolysing system.
Preferably, the steam electrolysed in step iii. has a temperature from 650°C to 1000°C and even more preferably, from 700°C to 1000°C.
Preferably, in step iii., the electrolysis of steam is powered in part or all by CO2 neutral electricity.
CO2 neutral electricity includes notably electricity from renewable source which is defined as energy that is collected from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, including sources like sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat. In some embodiments, the use of electricity coming from nuclear sources can be used as it is not emitting CO2 to be produced.
Preferably, in step iv., the said radiant tube is supplied with the H2 and the O2 produced in step iii, and optionally with H2 and/ or O2 from a storage means, such that they get combined into heat and steam.
Preferably, the step ii., iii. and iv. are repeated.
The use of a radiant tube consuming H2 and O2 in a quasi-closed loop allows to heat a furnace in a manner requiring less energy and natural resources compared to heating method of the state of the art.
The invention also relates to an installation comprising
- a furnace 1 comprising at least one radiant tube 2 and being able to thermally treat a running steel strip
- an electrolysing device 3 able to electrolyse steam and to produce H2 and O2 wherein said electrolysing device is connected to said furnace such that at least two flux of gas (4 and 4’) can flow from the electrolysing device 3 to the furnace and one flux of gas 5 can flow from the furnace to the electrolysing device.
Preferably, said electrolysing device comprises at least one Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cell.
Preferably, said installation comprises heating means able to heat steam, wherein said heating means is connected to said furnace and to said electrolysing device.
Preferably, said installation comprises at least a storage means able to store a gas and being connected to said electrolysing device such that a flow of gas can flow from the electrolysing device to said storage means.
Even more preferably, said at least storage means is connected to said furnace such that a flow of gas can flow from said storage means to said furnace.
