In order to clarify the process of the reduction of oxidized pellets in shaft furnace by carbon monoxide or hydrogen in two ways, i.e. thermodynamics and kinetics, the gas utilization and reaction mechanism were studied by theoretical computations and isothermal thermogravimetric experiment. The results showed that the gas utilization increased with the rise of temperature when xH2/xco≥1 and with the increase of xco/（xH2 ＋xco） when temperature is less than 1073 K. The water-gas shift reaction restrains efficient utilization of gas, particularly in high tem- perature and hydrogen-rich gas. The gas utilization dropped with increase of carburization quantity of direct reduction iron （DRI） and oxygen potential of atmosphere. With the increase of both temperature and content of H2 in inlet gas, the reaction rate increased. At 100% Hz atmosphere, the interfacial chemical reaction is the dominant reaction re- stricted step. For the H2-CO mixture atmosphere, the reduction process is controlled by both interfacial chemical reaction and internal diffusion展开更多

A mathematical model of gas flow based on the reformed COG was built. The effects of the pressure ratio of reducing gas to cooling gas (k) on the gas distribution in the shaft furnace were investigated. The calculation results show that k is an important operation parameter, which can obviously affect the gas distribution in the shaft furnace. The value of k should be compromised. Both too big and too small k values are not appropriate, and the most reasonable value for k is 1:1.33.Under this condition, the utilization coefficient of reducing gas, the utilization coefficient of cooling gas and the coefficient of upward gas are 0.94, 0.92 and 1.03, respectively. Based on the validation of physical experiments, the calculated values of the model agreed well with the physical experimental data. Thus, the established model can properly describe the reformed COG distribution in an actual shaft furnace.展开更多

The model was verified by the practical production data of a COREX-3000 shaft furnace, and then, it was used to study the inner characteristics of the shaft furnace with CGD. The results show that, compared with the COREX shaft furnace without CGD, the gas utilization rate (UR) and solid metallization rate (MR) increase from 33.66% to 34.18% and 60.4% to 61.8%, respectively. Especially, the standard deviation of solid MR decreases from 6.9% to 0.8%, which means that the MR of direct reduced iron from the furnace with CGD is more uniform than that without CGD. Additionally, the effects of operational conditions and CGD design on gas UR, solid MR and direct reduced iron uniformity were further discussed and the optimized conditions were suggested.展开更多
