Abstract
A flash ironmaking system and a flash ironmaking method are provided. The flash ironmaking system includes a pulverized coal gasifier; a drying pre-reduction kiln; and a flash furnace having a horizontal bottom in which a molten iron layer region, a slag layer region and a carburizing bed layer region are sequentially formed, a reduction tower, a concentrate nozzle, and a flue.
Claims9
A flash ironmaking system, comprising:
- a pulverized coal gasifier defining a material inlet and a coal gas outlet, and configured to mix pulverized coal, pure oxygen and steam to obtain a crude coal gas containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen;
- a drying pre-reduction kiln defining a wet iron ore inlet, a block coal inlet and a charging material outlet, and configured to dry and pre-reduce wet iron ore and block coal to obtain pre-reduced iron ore;
- and
- a flash furnace comprising:
- a horizontal bottom defining a hearth in which a molten iron layer region, a slag layer region and a carburizing bed layer region are sequentially formed from bottom to top,
- a reduction tower defining a reduction tower chamber therein, and a lower end connected to an upper end of the carburizing bed layer region,
- a concentrate nozzle provided at a top of the reduction tower, connected to the charging material outlet and the coal gas outlet respectively, and configured to only feed the pre-reduced iron ore, the crude coal gas and a fuel containing pure oxygen and pea coal to the reduction tower chamber to obtain metal iron and a flue gas,
- a flue defining a lower end connected to the upper end of the carbonizing bed layer region, wherein a flue gas vent is formed in a side wall of the flue and communicated with the drying pre-reduction kiln.
