Definitions
- the invention relates to a tank with an easily oxidizable liquid metal treatment pocket, comprising one or more devices making it possible to prevent gases harmful to the liquid metal or the apparatuses located in the tank, from entering the tank, said tank thus being inerted.
- the harmful gases are generally gases containing oxygen and / or water vapor.
- This treatment includes in particular the blowing of a gas (generally argon with or without added chlorine) for example using a dispersion rotor immersed in the liquid metal, the drive shaft of which the turbine are often made of graphite and / or simple filtration through a bed of filter material, for example a piece of porous ceramic or any other filter medium.
- a gas generally argon with or without added chlorine
- the absence of inclusions, in particular resulting from the oxidation of the liquid metal by oxygen in the air and / or water vapor, is often essential for avoid defects in the parts obtained subsequently, for example the thin strips.
- tanks first of all comprise a tank body essentially comprising an external steel box whose internal walls are lined with a relatively porous refractory masonry and as inert as possible with respect to the treated metal.
- the interior layout depends on the treatment or treatments that we want to subject to the metal.
- the masonry tank thus produced can be divided into compartments using separating walls also made of inert refractory masonry.
- This masonry is at least partly made using mortar and refractory insulation.
- the box has a plurality of holes to allow the evacuation of water vapor and drying gases. They also serve for the evacuation of part of the water vapor taken up by the refractories and / or insulators, or more generally by the lining coatings, during stops and emptying of the tank, another part of said vapor. of water that can pollute the metal treated in the tank.
- the tanks also have a cover crossed by equipment necessary for carrying out the treatment process, which are often removable (that is to say that they can be removed from the tank) and / or mobile.
- the means for injecting process gas usually dispersion turbines located at the end of a rotor shaft; this rotor can pass through the cover as it is or can sometimes be surrounded by a fixed sheath, the assembly remaining removable; it is also the means for heating the liquid metal, for example of the immersion heater type partially immersed in the liquid metal, which can be removable, or the temperature measurement means (thermocouples).
- the tank body includes, like the cover, a metallic external wall, possibly perforated, lined inside the refractory. There is usually a guard space between the cover and the surface of the molten metal.
- They also include means for entering and leaving the liquid metal which may be such that they avoid any contact between the metal treated in the tank and the external atmosphere.
- These means are generally of the “source supply” or “siphon” type where it is the liquid metal itself which ensures the sealing and insulation of the inside of the tank from the outside.
- the tank body may include at its base a drain hole passing through its wall and closable for example by a removable stopper.
- All these ancillary equipment can be the source of parasitic humid air inlets, detrimental to the quality of the treated metal; it is therefore necessary to avoid them.
- the invention is an inert tank for the treatment of oxidizable liquid metal, comprising a tank body surmounted by a cover, the said bodies and cover each comprising a metal wall covered on its inner face with a inert refractory lining, a plurality of holes being drilled in the wall of the tank body and optionally in that of the cover, removable and / or mobile auxiliary equipment, or possibly fixed passing through the cover and optionally the tank body, these equipment making it possible to '' Perform or control said treatment, the tank body comprising means for entering and leaving the liquid metal such that they avoid any contact between the liquid metal located in the tank and the external atmosphere, preferably using a device of the liquid metal siphon type, said tank being optionally equipped with a pressure regulation device making it possible to adjust its internal pressure to a value greater than atmospheric pressure and being characterized in that it comprises at least two of the following devices:
- the waterproof, usually metallic, steel overwrap is hermetically sealed. It can consist of several parts assembled by joints.
- the double jacket thus obtained contains a dry and preferably inert gas, for example nitrogen or argon. It may be a weak gas stream, the overwrap then comprises at least one gas inlet and outlet generally calibrated and / or closable, or a static atmosphere whose pressure is controlled to be slightly higher than the atmospheric pressure. It can include a drain valve located at a low point on the body or the cover to evacuate the condensations coming from the refractories and passing through the holes in the wall.
- the inflatable peripheral seal used to obtain the seal between the tank body and its cover comprises a simple elastomeric rod holding temperature, inflated by a preferably neutral gas at a suitable pressure in relation to the weight of the cover and the condition of the bearing surfaces to be sealed.
- Such a device is an important means of the invention and proves to be particularly effective while being economical and simple to implement; it in fact makes it possible to isolate the interior of the tank and the surface of the liquid metal bath from the external atmosphere in a secure manner because it adapts perfectly to the support surfaces integral with the cover and the tank body to be sealed which generally have irregular geometries, often left profiles, an approximate flatness and are easily deformable; it alone allows good inerting of the tank.
- the cover simply placed on the inflatable tube and providing sealing thanks to its own weight, can be handled remotely, easily, quickly and automatically, thus avoiding any risk for personnel.
- the inerted tank it is sometimes advantageous for the inerted tank to have at least this double envelope which makes it possible to avoid the recovery of humidity by the refractory masonry during stops and emptying of the tank and then the pollutant release of this humidity in the metal being processed.
- the inerting of the tank is further improved when the tank is itself equipped with an inflatable seal and / or sealing means on the bushings of auxiliary equipment.
- the tank remains closed during the said temperature maintenance and / or emptying operations.
- the auxiliary equipment making it possible to carry out and control the treatment of the liquid metal are generally removable, that is to say that they can be manipulated, through the cover or the tank body, to position or extract them from the liquid metal using lifting devices; these are in particular the devices for supplying treatment gas (for example the rotor turbine drive shaft), for heating the liquid metal (for example of the partially immersed immersion heaters type), for temperature measurement (for example partially submerged thermocouple).

- a counter flange also surrounding the equipment and comprising means making it possible to compress said lining against the walls of said housing and said removable and / or mobile equipment, using clamping devices cooperating with said flange secured to the cover or to the tank body.
- the flange and its cable gland can also be fixed to the cover or to the tank body in a removable but leaktight manner, using a gasket and clamping means, to a first flange fixed directly and in a leaktight manner (by welding example) to said cover or tank body, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance.
- This watertight device in both directions is particularly effective in ensuring the isolation of the liquid metal from the external atmosphere, in particular when an overpressure of gas prevails inside the tank or when accidentally a depression occurs for example due to unexpected cooling.
- the sealing is ensured in a conventional manner: the equipment is subject, by means of a seal, to a counter-flange fixed or welded in a leaktight manner on the cover or the body of the tank.
- the pressure regulating device inside the tank typically comprises gas supply and outlet pipes passing through the cover and operates with a dry gas, for example dry air, nitrogen or argon.
- a dry gas for example dry air, nitrogen or argon.
- the outlet pipe generally fitted with a pressure adjustment valve, can also serve as an outlet for the treatment gases introduced into the liquid metal.

- the tank is closed by the cover using an inflatable peripheral seal (20) ensuring the isolation of the interior of the tank and making it possible to put it in overpressure.
- the housing section is a quadrilateral, but it could have another shape, for example circular.
- the inflatable seal is generally made of flexible elastomer which is resistant to temperature. It advantageously has a rectangular section which allows better contact with the bearing surfaces and better sealing.
- the seal is obtained by inflating the seal, generally with nitrogen, which then presses against the walls of the housing acting as a bearing surface.
- a device is particularly suitable because it takes very good account of the flatness defects of said spans or those of dimensioning of its housing, inherent in this type of large tank, even when these defects are accentuated or modified by the fact that the The tank is also subjected to repeated heating and cooling cycles.
- the gas supply to the inflatable seal is carried out via the tube
- the pressure regulating device inside the tank comprises a supply line (25) connected to a gas pressure regulator (26) acting on the valve (27).
