Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Rostfreistahlerzeugung ohne elektrische Energiezufuhr auf der Basis von flüssigem Roheisen und FeCr-Feststoffen, wobei das flüssige Roheisen nach einer Vorbehandlung im Hochofen und einer DDD-Behandlung (Entphosphorung, Entsilizierung, Entschwefelung) in einem AOD-Konverter aufgeheizt, veredelt bzw. legiert, reduziert und abschließend eine Anpassung/Einstellung der behandelten Stahlschmelze in einem Pfannenofen durchgeführt wird.The invention relates to a method for stainless steel production without electrical energy supply based on liquid pig iron and FeCr solids, wherein the liquid pig iron after a pre-treatment in the blast furnace and a DDD treatment (dephosphorization, desilication, desulfurization) heated in an AOD converter, ennobled or alloyed, reduced and finally an adjustment / adjustment of the treated molten steel in a ladle furnace is performed.

Die Verwendung eines AOD-Konverters zur Herstellung von Edelstählen ist bereits bekannt. So wird in der WO 02/075003 eine Kontrollmethode beschrieben, basierend auf einer kontinuierlichen Abgasmessung in Kombination mit einem Rechner und einem dynamischen Modell, mit deren Hilfe die erforderlichen Blasraten von Sauerstoff und Inertgas sowie die Stoffzusätze gesteuert werden. Aus der EP 1 310 573 A2 ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Metallschmelze, insbesondere zum Frischen einer Metallschmelze zur Herstellung von z. B. legiertem rostfreien Stahl oder Edelstahl in einem AOD-Konverter bekannt, wobei das Verfahren auf einer nach einem Prozessmodell ablaufenden und die hüttentechnische Anlage steuernden Rechentechnik fußt, in der das Prozessmodell das Verhalten für mindestens einen variablen Prozessparameter zwischen einer Ist-Prozessgröße, einer Stellgröße und einer Prozessendgröße beschreibt. An einem Beispiel wird der Prozessablauf für die Herstellung für einen Stahl der Güteklasse AISI 304 beschrieben.The use of an AOD converter for the production of stainless steels is already known. So will in the WO 02/075003 describes a control method based on a continuous exhaust gas measurement in combination with a computer and a dynamic model, with the help of which the required blow rates of oxygen and inert gas as well as the additives are controlled. From the EP 1 310 573 A2 is a method for producing a molten metal, in particular for refining a molten metal for the production of z. B. alloyed stainless steel or stainless steel in an AOD converter, the method is based on a running according to a process model and the metallurgical plant controlling computational technology, in the process model, the behavior for at least one variable process parameter between an actual process variable, a manipulated variable and describes a process end size. An example of the manufacturing process for AISI 304 grades is described.

Rostfreistähle der ferritischen Stahlgruppe AISI 4xx werden konventionell prinzipiell aus arteigenem Schrott im EAF hergestellt und später dann im AOD Konverter zusätzlich legiert und entkohlt. Um die Anwendung von Roheisen hier zu nutzen, wird in einem Stahlwerk vorbehandeltes Roheisen mit eingeschmolzenem Schrott und Legierung außerhalb des Ofens in einer Pfanne vermischt und danach in den Konverter chargiert.Stainless steels of the ferritic steel group AISI 4xx are conventionally produced in principle from typical scrap in the EAF and later additionally alloyed and decarburized in the AOD converter. In order to use the use of pig iron here, pig iron pretreated in a steel mill is melted down Scrap and alloy outside the oven mixed in a pan and then charged into the converter.

In der WO 2006/050963 A2 wird zur Herstellung von Rostfreistahl der ferritischen Stahlgruppe AISI 4xx, insbesondere der Stahlgruppe AISI 430 auf der Grundlage von flüssigem Roheisen und FeCr-Feststoffen ein Verfahren mit einer DDD-Verfahrenslinie und dem AOD-Konverter mit den hintereinander durchgeführten Verfahrensschritten vorgeschlagen:

  • Vorbehandlung des flüssigen Roheisens im Hochofen, DDD-Behandlung des Roheisens und Beschickung des AOD-Konverters mit schlackefreiem flüssigen Roheisen,
  • Erhitzen, Veredlung/Legierung und Reduktion des flüssigen Roheisens im AOD-Konverter,
  • abschließende Anpassung/Einstellung der behandelten Stahlschmelze in der Gießpfanne.
In the WO 2006/050963 A2 For the production of stainless steel of the ferritic steel group AISI 4xx, in particular the steel group AISI 430 based on liquid pig iron and FeCr solids, a process with a DDD process line and the AOD converter with the process steps carried out one behind the other is proposed:
  • Pre-treatment of the molten pig iron in the blast furnace, DDD treatment of the pig iron and charging of the AOD converter with slag-free liquid pig iron,
  • Heating, refining / alloying and reduction of the molten pig iron in the AOD converter,
  • final adjustment / adjustment of the treated molten steel in the ladle.

Mit Vorteil wird bei diesem bekannten Verfahren die Herstellung des Rostfreistahls durch den Einsatz des AOD-Konverters ohne den Einsatz eines EAF, also ohne Zufuhr von elektrischer Energie durchgeführt. Nachteilig ist bei diesem bekannten Verfahren allerdings, dass schließlich auf Grund eines Mangels an Energie mit diesem Verfahren nur die Herstellung von ferritischen Stählen möglich ist.Advantageously, in this known method, the production of the stainless steel by the use of the AOD converter without the use of an EAF, that is carried out without supply of electrical energy. A disadvantage of this known method, however, that finally due to a lack of energy with this method, only the production of ferritic steels is possible.

Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik besteht die Aufgabe der Erfindung darin, das aus der WO 2006/050963 A2 bekannte Verfahren mit AOD-Technologie zum Direktchargieren des Roheisens und des Nachlegierens im Konverter zur Rostfreistahlerzeugung aller Rostfreigüten, beispielsweise AISI 3xx, 4xx, 2xx, sowohl im austenitischen als auch im ferritischen Bereich unter Verwendung von autogener chemischer Energie zu nutzen.Based on this prior art, the object of the invention is that of the WO 2006/050963 A2 Known method with AOD technology for direct charging of pig iron and alloying in the converter for stainless steel production of all stainless steel, such as AISI 3xx, 4xx, 2xx, both austenitic and ferritic range using autogenous chemical energy to use.

Die gestellte Aufgabe zur Herstellung von Rostfreistahl der genannten Stahlgüte wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 dadurch gelöst, dass zur Rostfreistahlerzeugung aller Rostfreigüten sowohl im austenitischen als auch im ferritischen Bereich die im Hochofen vorbehandelte schlackefreie flüssige Roheisenmenge aufgetrennt und in zwei klassische "Twin" AOD-L Konverter eingebracht wird, in die dann mit parallelem konträren Ablauf die erforderlichen chemischen Prozessschritte (der DDD-Behandlung, des Chargierens und Heizens, des Entkohlens und Legierens) unter Verwendung von autogener chemischer Energie vorgenommen wird, wobei im ersten Twin AOD-L Konverter zunächst die DDD-Behandlung und im zweiten Twin AOD-L Konverter zunächst die Entkohlung durchgeführt wird.The stated object for the production of stainless steel number of said steel grade is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1, characterized in that the stainless steel production of all stainless steel in both the austenitic and ferritic in the blast furnace pretreated slag-free liquid quantity of pig iron and separated into two classic "Twin" AOD In the first twin AOD-L converter, the required chemical process steps (the DDD treatment, charging and heating, decarburization and alloying) are carried out using parallel countercurrent flow using autogenous chemical energy First, the DDD treatment and in the second Twin AOD-L converter, first the decarburization is performed.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Nach dem Abschluss der DDD-Behandlung ist vor dem nachfolgenden Heizen ein Abschlacken des Roheisens erforderlich, da der typische AOD-Prozess schlackefrei starten soll. Damit wird auch die Effizienz der Lanze, die im zweiten AOD-L Konverter verwendet wird, vergrößert und eine freie Oberfläche der Schmelze für das Entweichen der Prozessgase gewährleistet.After completion of DDD treatment, prior to subsequent heating, slagging of the pig iron is required since the typical AOD process should start slag-free. Thus, the efficiency of the lance, which is used in the second AOD-L converter, increased and ensures a free surface of the melt for the escape of the process gases.

Das Heizen des Roheisens auf eine gewünschte bzw. für die nachfolgenden Prozessschritte erforderliche Temperatur erfolgt durch Si-Oxidation. Hierzu wird in den Twin AOD-L Konverter FeSi chargiert und Sauerstoff/Inertgas-Gemisch durch die Seitendüsen und eine Top-Lanze in und auf das Roheisen geblasen. Im ersten Twin AOD-L Konverter wird hierzu eine 3- bzw. 4-Loch-Toplanze und im zweiten Twin AOD-L Konverter eine Einloch-Toplanze eingesetzt.The heating of the pig iron to a desired or required for the subsequent process steps temperature is carried out by Si oxidation. For this purpose FeSi is charged into the Twin AOD-L converter and oxygen / inert gas mixture is blown through the side nozzles and a top lance into and onto the pig iron. The first Twin AOD-L converter uses a 3- or 4-hole top lance and the second Twin AOD-L converter uses a single-hole top lance.

Da das Heizen des Vormetalls erfindungsgemäß nach der DDD-Behandlung durchgeführt wird, ist es vor Allem möglich, Ni bzw. Ni-Legierungen in die Twin AOD-L Konverter zu chargieren. Die Bilanzenergie kann auf diese Weise beliebig gestaltet werden.Since the heating of the pre-metal is carried out according to the invention after the DDD treatment, it is possible, above all, to charge Ni or Ni alloys into the Twin AOD-L converters. The balance energy can be designed in this way.

Durch den konträren Ablauf der in beiden Twin AOD-L Konvertern zu unterschiedlichen Zeitpunkten durchgeführten Prozessschritte erfolgt im ersten Twin AOD-L Konverter nach Abschluss der DDD-Behandlung und des Chargierens und Heizens das Entkohlen und Legieren der Schmelze, während im zweiten Twin AOD-L Konverter nach Abschluss der Entkohlung und aller dazu gehörenden Behandlungsschritte (wie z. B. Entschwefelung und Legieren samt Abstechen) das Roheisen aufgeheizt wird.Due to the contradictory sequence of the process steps carried out in both Twin AOD-L converters at different times, the decarburization and alloying of the melt takes place in the first Twin AOD-L converter after completion of the DDD treatment and charging and heating, while in the second Twin AOD-L Converter after completion of the decarburization and all associated treatment steps (such as desulfurization and alloying with parting off) the pig iron is heated.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Auftrennung der vorbehandelten schlackefreien flüssigen Roheisenmenge auf zwei in der Prozesslinie nach dem Hochofen parallel angeordnete Twin AOD-L Konverter sowie der dort konträr durchgeführten Prozessschritte wird mit Vorteil die Erzeugung aller RST-Stahlqualitäten ermöglicht. Gleichzeitig findet eine Abkoppelung des Bedarfs an elektrischer Energie für alle Qualitäten statt, da als Energieträger ausschließlich die bereits im Roheisen vorhandene bzw. über die mit dem chargierten FeSi eingebrachte autogene chemische Energie verwendet wird. Weiterhin werden durch diese Auftrennung der Roheisenmenge und der Prozessführung eine zuverlässigere Temperaturführung, verminderte Prozesskosten sowie verminderte Investitionskosten erreicht, da jeweils nur kleinere Roheisenmengen behandelt werden müssen.The separation according to the invention of the pretreated slag-free molten pig iron quantity on two twin AOD-L converters arranged in parallel in the process line downstream of the blast furnace and the process steps carried out in a contrary manner makes it advantageously possible to produce all RST steel grades. At the same time, there is a decoupling of the demand for electrical energy for all qualities, since only the energy already present in the pig iron or via the charged with the charged FeSi autogenous chemical energy is used. Furthermore, a more reliable temperature control, reduced process costs and reduced investment costs are achieved by this separation of the amount of pig iron and the process control, since only smaller quantities of pig iron have to be treated.

Nachfolgend wird das Verfahren der Erfindung in schematischen Zeichnungsfiguren näher erläutert.The method of the invention is explained in more detail in schematic drawing figures.

In der Figur 1 ist in einer Zeichnungsfigur eine beispielhafte Verfahrenslinie für die Herstellung von Rostfreistahl dargestellt. Die flüssige Roheisenmenge wird nach ihrem Austritt aus dem Hochofen 1 aufgetrennt und in zwei parallel dem Hochofen 1 nachgeordnete Twin AOD-L Konverter 2, 3 eingebracht. Hier erfolgt in konträrem Ablauf der Prozessschritte die DDD-Behandlung und die Veredelung und Legierung des flüssigen Roheisens. Nach der Behandlung in den Twin AOD-L Konvertern 2, 3 wird die Stahlschmelze aus beiden Twin AOD-L Konvertern in einer Pfanne 4 zusammengeführt und gelangt von dort zur abschließenden Anpassung/Einstellung in den Pfannenofen 5 und von dort zur Gießmaschine 6.In the FIG. 1 In a drawing figure, an exemplary process line for the production of stainless steel is shown. The liquid quantity of pig iron is separated after its exit from the blast furnace 1 and introduced into two twin AOD-L converters 2, 3 arranged downstream of the blast furnace 1. Here, the process steps are carried out in a contrary process, the DDD treatment and the refining and alloying of the molten pig iron. After treatment in the Twin AOD-L converters 2, 3, the molten steel from both Twin AOD-L converters is brought together in a ladle 4 and from there to the final adaptation / adjustment in the ladle furnace 5 and from there to the casting machine 6.

In der Figur 2 ist der konträre Ablauf der in den Twin AOD-L Konvertern 2 und 3 durchgeführten Prozessschritte dargestellt. Während im Twin AOD-L Konverter 2 (in der Zeichnung links) mit einer DDD-Behandlung V7 begonnen wird, gefolgt von einer durchgeführten Chargierung und Aufheizung V8 mittels FeSi und daran anschließender AOD-Behandlung V9 mit Entkohlen und Legieren zur Herstellung von beispielsweise AISI 3xx, 4xx, 2xx Rostfreistahlgüten, wird im Twin AOD-L Konverter 3 (in der Zeichnung rechts) die DDD-Behandlung V7 mit nachfolgender Chargierung und Aufheizung V8 erst nach Abschluss der AOD-Behandlung V9 durchgeführt.In the FIG. 2 the contrary sequence of the process steps carried out in the Twin AOD-L converters 2 and 3 is shown. While in the Twin AOD-L converter 2 (on the left in the drawing) a DDD treatment V7 is started, followed by charging and heating V8 by FeSi followed by AOD treatment V9 with decarburization and alloying to produce, for example, AISI 3xx , 4xx, 2xx stainless steel grades, the DDD treatment V7 in the Twin AOD-L converter 3 (in the drawing on the right) with subsequent charging and heating V8 is only carried out after completion of the AOD treatment V9.

Durch die gewählte Darstellungsform der Figur 2 soll insbesondere deutlich hervorgehoben werden, dass zu keinem Zeitpunkt in den Konvertern 2, 3 gleiche Verfahrensschritte durchgeführt werden, worauf u. a. der verfahrentechnische Vorteil der Auftrennung des Verfahrens in zwei Konvertern beruht.Due to the chosen representation of the FIG. 2 should be emphasized in particular clearly that at no time in the converters 2, 3 the same process steps are carried out, which, inter alia, the procedural advantage of the separation of the method is based in two converters.

Daraus folgt, dass die DDD-Behandlung und das Chargieren und Heizen im Konverter 2 mit der AOD-L-Behandlung im Konverter 3 und umgekehrt die DDD-Behandlung und das Chargieren und Heizen im Konverter 3 mit der AOD-L-Behandlung im Konverter 2 synchronisiert ist.It follows that the DDD treatment and the charging and heating in the converter 2 with the AOD-L treatment in the converter 3 and vice versa the DDD treatment and the charging and heating in the converter 3 with the AOD-L treatment in the converter. 2 is synchronized.
