Abstract:For most iron and steel enterprises without coking plant, the ignition gas used in sintering machine is mostly blast furnace gas, converter gas or the mixture of the two. The quality of surface sinter with these low calorific value gas is worse than that with coke oven gas. In view of this, the project team developed oxygen enriched ignition process, which was successfully implemented in 180 m2 sintering machine of ZENITH. After the implementation of oxygen enriched ignition, the furnace temperature was increased while the gas consumption was reduced. Under the condition of oxygen enriched 300 m3/h, the furnace temperature was increased by 15-36 ℃, and the gas flow was reduced by 250-600 m3/h. At the same time, the solid fuel combustion effect of surface sintering was improved, the solid fuel consumption was reduced by 1.25 kg/t, the strength of surface sintering was increased by 2.27%, and the internal return ratio was reduced by 1%.
