Abstract:In order to study the melting point and high-temperature viscosity of the ash produced by the pulverized coal injection into blast furnace before the tuyere in Shougang, the ash fusion properties of several common coal types and coal blends in Shougang were compared by the ash fusion melting point meter and FactSage software. The result showed that the values obtained by the two methods had the same trend. The position of the blasting coal ash in SiO2-CaO-Al2O3-MgO(w(MgO)=2%)phase diagram at 1 600 ℃ in Jingtang and Qiangang was analyzed using FactSage thermodynamic calculation software. The influence of coal ash composition of SiO2, Al2O3, CaO, MgO, Fe2O3 on liquidus temperature and viscosity of coal ash at high temperature were studied. It was found that the influence of different ash components on the liquidus temperature and viscosity of coal ash was different. The effect of ash composition on liquidus temperature was more complex. At high temperature, the coal ash viscosity decreased with increasing the concentration of Al2O3, Fe2O3 and MgO in the ash composition of Shougang blast furnace. While the ash viscosity increased with increasing SiO2 concentration in the coal. Therefore, the influence of different components on the liquidus temperature and viscosity of coal ash should be considered when mixing coal. It was possible to avoid slag-bonding before tuyere by controlling of ash composition.
