Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for operating a cooling chamber in a strand guide device of a continuous casting plant for casting a casting strand, in particular made of metal.
- the invention relates to the strand guide device having a cooling device with the cooling chamber.
- FIG. 5 shows the continuous casting system 100 disclosed there, in which a metal casting strand 13, for example, is cast with the aid of a mold 40 and is subsequently deflected horizontally with the aid of a strand guide device 10. It is also known that the casting strand that has not yet solidified, for example made of steel, has a plurality of cooling chambers 1, 1' within the strand guide device Figure 6 passes through, in which the casting strand 13 is cooled by spraying with a coolant 33 to form steam 5.
- the steam is at least partially saturated with the coolant and is typically sucked out of the respective cooling chamber 1, 1' laterally, ie transversely to the pouring direction, with the aid of a suction device 20 individually assigned to each cooling chamber.
- the suction device 20 has an induced draft fan 8, a suction opening 3 in a side wall of the cooling chamber 1, 1 'and a suction channel 7 connecting the suction opening and the induced draft fan 8.
- different cooling strategies are used, i.e. different amounts of water are applied to the casting strand at different positions within the continuous casting system.
- the amount of water applied locally depends on the desired cooling effect, on the speed of the casting strand within the strand guide device, on the cooling water temperature and/or on the temperature of the casting strand. It happens again and again that very little or even no water is applied to the lower areas of the strand guide, i.e. there is practically no cooling there. In these cases, the suction devices only suck in dry air from the cooling chambers there. Pre-cleaning of a steam-air mixture in the respective cooling chamber is not possible in this way.
- the German disclosure document DE 10 2015 209 399 A1 discloses a device for removing exhaust air from the environment of a metal strand using a suction device.
- the suction device is arranged on one side of the conveying section of the casting strand.
- a fan is arranged to generate an air flow to convey the exhaust air in a blowing direction transverse to the conveyor path, as far as possible into the suction device.
- a control device is used to adjust the delivery rate of the blower and the suction device depending on a measured speed of the metal strip.
- the air particles of the exhaust air can be sucked out with significantly less air volume flow and therefore with significantly less energy expenditure than if the air volume flow had to be sucked in through the suction device alone.
- the suction device is followed by an exhaust air treatment system for cleaning the exhaust air sucked in by the suction device, in particular for filtering out airborne substances from the exhaust air.
- German patent specification discloses DE 10 2006 045 791 B4 a method and an arrangement for reducing pollutant emissions in the exhaust air of a rolling mill.
- the method provides a condensation step in which part of the exhaust air passes from the gas phase to the liquid phase with the formation of droplets, and a particle separation step in which the droplets formed in the condensation step are separated.
- the condensation step takes place in a condenser, which is designed as a heat exchanger.
- parts of the exhaust air flow can be returned to the rolling mill.
- Pre-cooled outside air can be supplied to the heat exchanger to promote the condensation step.
- the process is primarily intended to be used in a cold rolling mill.
- the invention is based on the object of developing a known method for operating a cooling chamber in a strand guiding device and the known strand guiding device itself in such a way that emission-relevant substances are removed from the steam-air mixture (5 ⁇ ).
- Substances that are particularly relevant to emissions are those that are harmful to people and the environment, but also to machines, and limit values are often set for their proportions in the air.
- the method is characterized in that the steam-air mixture is depleted using at least one separator, in particular by condensation.
- the steam-air mixture is passed through at least one separator, which depletes the steam-air mixture in terms of its dirt and pollutant load, for example through condensation.
- the separator is designed to cool the steam-air mixture, preferably adiabatically, and at the same time to remove moisture from it. According to the invention, this is done in that the moisture is condensed out of the sucked-in steam-air mixture using the separator.
- the separator is also designed to significantly reduce the pollutant load in the vapor-air mixture. Pollutants such as “dust”, “fine dust” and “VOC (highly volatile organic substances)” accumulate on the condensed particles in the air during condensation and are removed together with them via a sewer and sent for appropriate post-treatment.
- Pollutants such as “dust”, “fine dust” and “VOC (highly volatile organic substances)” accumulate on the condensed particles in the air during condensation and are removed together with them via a sewer and sent for appropriate post-treatment.
- the separator is reduced to the “condensing” functionality described, it is also referred to as a capacitor for simplicity.
- the separator preferably also has further functionalities for depleting pollutants in the vapor-air mixture.
- the separator can be designed to implement only one, several or all of its functionalities described below in succession or simultaneously.
- this depletion of pollutants succeeds so well that specified emission limit values can be safely adhered to.
- the false air is extracted from the hall surrounding the strand guide device and is usually very heavily contaminated or contaminated, in particular with substances that are harmful to health.
- the separator is arranged in front of the suction opening of the suction device in the cooling chamber.
- the separator can also be installed in the suction channel of the suction device, which connects the suction opening and an induced draft fan of the suction device to one another.
- the arrangement of the separator must ensure that the condensate is removed in the suction channel.
- the “additional separator” is basically designed to implement the same functionalities as the separator.
- the steam-air mixture can be additionally depleted by means of attachments and installations in front of, on or in the induced draft fan of the suction device.
- the attachments and fixtures refer to installations, e.g. in the form of spray nozzles and/or specially positioned impeller blades of the induced draft fan, which lead to a reduction in emissions.
- medium mainly water
- the suction-draft blower also functions as a centrifugal separator for the pollutants in question.
- the separator, the further separator and/or the attachments and installations each precondition the steam-air mixture extracted from the cooling chamber before it is released into the environment either via a chimney after passing through the suction-draft fan (according to the invention not favored) or is returned to the cooling chamber.
- the reduction of the pollutant load in the steam-air mixture according to the first to fourth exemplary embodiments is also referred to as preconditioning.
- the method according to the invention provides that additional air is supplied with the aid of a Pressure blower is blown into the cooling chamber.
- additional air is supplied with the aid of a Pressure blower is blown into the cooling chamber.
- the additional air supplied is therefore part of the steam-air mixture alongside the steam and the sucked-in false air.
- the additional air supplied can either be fresh air drawn in from outside the hall in which the strand guide device is operated (1st variant) and/or air extracted from the hall (2nd variant). In the two variants, a more or less complex conditioning of the sucked in air may be required before it is fed or returned to the cooling chamber, depending in particular on its respective preload with pollutants.
- a first possibility for conditioning the supplied air, in particular the fresh air sucked in is to change or adjust its temperature and/or its humidity in such a way that when it is mixed with the steam-air mixture already in the cooling chamber, the resulting mixture a desired target temperature and/or a desired target humidity is set.
- Regional or seasonal weather differences change the formation of condensation in the cooling chamber.
- a major problem here is the suction of so-called false air through unavoidable inlet and outlet openings in the cooling chamber in addition to the additional air supplied in a controlled manner. Unlike the variable, adjustable additional air, the false air is always sucked in due to the design.
- the false air that is involuntarily sucked in is classified as containing more pollutants (mainly dust) than the additional air.
- the false air is always part of the steam-air mixture in the cooling chamber. It would be advantageous to have a mean cooling chamber target temperature that is as constant as possible in the range of preferably 40 ° C to 60 ° C and / or a relative target air humidity of over 80%.
- the target temperature of the resulting steam-air mixture can be set via the targeted inflow of a defined amount of additional air with a correspondingly selected temperature. Likewise, by appropriately adjusting the humidity of the additional air, the desired relative target air humidity can be set for the resulting steam-air mixture in the cooling chamber.
- the conditioning of the additional air in the form of the air returned from the cooling chamber can be done by depleting it by adding separating agents to dissolve foreign substances from the steam-air mixture.
- the steam is essentially generated by the coolant, mainly water, evaporating when it is applied to the still hot casting strand.
- the coolant residues of casting powder and lubricants, e.g. B. oils and fats, which are required for the operation of certain system parts, for example for the segment rollers, get into the steam-air mixture. Due to contact with the hot casting strand and the associated evaporation process, portions of the substances mentioned can undesirably be found in the steam-air mixture.
- separating agents provided according to the invention, So-called adsorbents, these substances can be dissolved again from the steam-air mixture and, if necessary, collected separately. Analogous conditioning can also be carried out for the additional air extracted from the hall.
- the coolant that is used as part of said secondary cooling in the cooling chambers of the strand guide device to cool the casting strand typically consists of 100% water.
- the dimensioning of the entire suction device i.e. H. of the induced draft fan, the suction duct and the suction opening are lower. This applies because the compressed air blower supplies large quantities of the steam-air mixture to the suction opening, which was previously, i.e. H. without the presence of the pressure fan, would have to be sucked in by the suction device alone. Reducing the size of the suction device also has the advantage that the volume flow of the steam-air mixture at the outlet of the suction device and thus the necessary power consumption of the suction device is reduced in the present invention.
- Reducing the dimensions of the suction device also has the advantage that installation space can be saved and that assembly is made easier in tight spaces.
- the reduced volume flow in the cooling chamber and the suction device favors the installation of the separator in front of the suction opening because the separator can be operated more effectively at low air speeds, ie with lower energy consumption.
- the reduced volume flow from the cooling chamber advantageously also means that less false air is sucked in.
- part of the extracted and pre-condensed steam-air mixture at the outlet of the suction device can advantageously be fed back to the cooling chamber via a first partial air return line, keyword endless filtration.
- the remaining steam-air mixture which is released into the environment via leaks in pipes and ducts and/or ultimately via the chimney (not favored by the present invention), is reduced accordingly.
- the invention provides that the steam-air mixture extracted from the cooling chamber is not discharged to the environment via the continued exhaust air duct via the chimney, but with a variably adjustable first partial quantity via the first partial air return line returned to the cooling chamber and fed to a conditioning device with a variably adjustable second portion.
- the conditioning device the steam-air mixture is conditioned or prepared for reuse within the strand guide device, in particular in its cooling chamber, that is, above all, further cleaned of pollutants.
- the processing takes place in particular by cooling, dehumidifying and/or cleaning the incoming preconditioned steam-air mixture.
- the processing advantageously goes to such an extent that the conditioned steam-air mixture at the outlet of the conditioning device satisfies even the latest strict limit values for air pollution control.
- the steam-air mixture conditioned in this way is intended and suitable, largely or completely, for the strand guide device, in particular their cooling chamber to be supplied again as additional air (3rd variant), so that an almost closed air circuit is created, or to be released into the hall surrounding the strand guide device.
- the operation of the strand guide device can thus advantageously be realized at least without any environmentally harmful emissions via the chimney into the ambient air.
- the partial air quantities are adjusted using distribution devices, e.g. distribution flaps.
- the proportions of the individual partial air quantities can be between 0% and 100%, with the sum of the individual partial air quantities set per distribution device being 100%.
- Figure 1 essentially shows a cross section through a cooling chamber 1 of a strand guide device 10 of a continuous casting plant, as introduced above with reference to Figures 5 and 6 was described as prior art.
- a segment 12 of the strand guide device 10 with strand guide rollers 2 is shown in cross section, between which the casting strand 13 is guided.
- the cooling chamber 1 forms an enclosure for the strand guide device 1, in particular the segments 12. It has unwanted openings through which false air 15 in the form of ambient air or hall air is inevitably sucked in.
- Figure 1 shows the cooling chamber 1 with a plurality of exemplary embodiments according to the invention, as described below
- the casting strand 13 On its way through the strand guide device, more precisely through its segments 12, the casting strand 13 is cooled in the cooling chamber 1 by spraying with a coolant 33.
- the cooling chamber 1 is assigned a suction device 20 for sucking the steam-air mixture 5 'out of the cooling chamber 1.
- the suction device 20 comprises an induced draft fan 8 and a suction duct 7, which has a suction opening 3 in the cooling chamber 1 with the induced draft fan 8 connects.
- the continuation of the suction channel 7 downstream of the induced draft fan 8 is designated by the reference number 9.
- the continuation of the suction channel can direct the extracted steam-air mixture 5 'to a chimney 19.
- this variant is not favored according to the invention.
- separator 6 and/or the further separator 6' is designed to implement two or more of the functions mentioned, they are also referred to as multifunctional separators.
- the separator 6 is, as in Figure 1 shown, according to a first exemplary embodiment, advantageously arranged in front of the suction opening 3 of the suction device 20 in the cooling chamber. This is advantageous because the condensate 22 formed in the separator 6, in particular the condensed coolant, can then be removed through a sewer 24 or a sinter channel within the cooling chamber 1.
- the separator can also be arranged in the flow direction of the steam-air mixture 5 'between the suction opening 3 and the induced draft fan 8 in the suction duct 7 or also in the exhaust air duct 9 which continues in the flow direction behind the induced draft fan.
- a single separator 6, but also a further separator 6 ' is provided, this can (also) be arranged in the suction channel 7.
- this can (also) be arranged in the suction channel 7.
- the separator 6 and/or the further separator 6' are arranged in the suction channel 7, there must be a possibility in the suction channel 7 for collecting and discharging the condensate 22 generated there.
- the cooling water required for the operation of the separator can be taken from the secondary cooling water of the strand guide device 10 and does not need to be specially conditioned.
- the water that is separated via the separator 6, 6 ' is returned to the cooling circuit and is not supplied to the environment as a steam-air mixture via the chimney 19. This leads to additional water savings.
- the depletion of the steam-air mixture 5' - except through the separator 6, 6' - can also be done by means of attachments and internals 16, for example spray nozzles, which are in front of, in, on or - in the direction of flow - behind the induced draft fan 8 are arranged. They offer an additional possibility of reducing the pollutant content of the steam-air mixture 5 'before it is passed on into the exhaust chimney 19, into a first partial air return line 11 or into a conditioning device Z, see Fig. 3 , reduce or precondition.
- additional air can optionally be blown into the cooling chamber 1 using a pressure blower 4, the pressure blower 4 preferably, as in Figure 1 shown, is arranged opposite the suction opening 3 of the suction device 20 in the cooling chamber 1.
- the additionally supplied air 14 mixes in the cooling chamber 1 with the steam-air mixture 5 'already there.
- the additional air 14 can be generated by conditioning the steam-air mixture 5 'sucked out of the cooling chamber 1 with the conditioning device Z, by conditioning hall air 80 sucked out of the hall 200 with a further conditioning device 60 and / or by preferably conditioning fresh air 70, also with the conditioning device 60, with the fresh air being sucked in from outside the hall 200.
- the type and extent of conditioning depend on the type and quality of the air sucked in.
- the proportions of the three possible components mentioned in the additional air 14 are adjusted via a third distribution device Z7_3 and/or a fourth distribution device Z7_4, each designed, for example, in the form of a distributor flap.
- the proportions of the sucked-in hall air 80 and the sucked-in fresh air 70 in the additional air 14 can be variably preset. These proportions are depleted to the extent necessary with the help of the further conditioning device 60.
- the proportions of the conditioned steam-air mixture 5" and the air at the outlet of the further conditioning device Z7_4 in the additional air 14 can be variably adjusted.
- the individual proportions of the three possible components in the total amount of additional air 14 supplied is between 0% and 100%, and in total it is always 100%.
- the in Fig. 1 The arrangement of the distribution devices Z7_3 and Z7_4 as well as the further conditioning device 60 shown are merely examples. Other interconnections of these devices or only parts of the devices are also conceivable, depending on which of the possible components or parts the additional air 14 should contain.
- the distribution devices Z7_3 and Z7_4 as well as the further conditioning device 60 can also be completely omitted if only the conditioned one Steam-air mixture 5" is to be supplied into the cooling chamber 1 as additional air 14 or no additional air 14 at all.
- collecting grilles can be provided as system protection in order to protect subsequent system parts in the flow direction from unwanted external influences caused by coarse foreign parts sucked in.
- a first distribution device Z7_1 for example in the form of a first distribution flap, is located in the continued exhaust air duct 9, preferably at the outlet of the induced draft fan 8, in front of the first partial air return line 11.
- the first distribution device Z7_1 is used to variably divide the preconditioned steam-air mixture 5' into a first and a second subset. The first portion of the preconditioned steam-air mixture is fed back into the cooling chamber 1 via the first partial air return line 11.
- the second portion of the steam-air mixture is passed past the first partial air return line 11 and is either discharged via the chimney 19 into the environment of the strand guide device 100 (not favored by the invention) or, according to a seventh exemplary embodiment, via the continued exhaust air duct 9 Conditioning device Z supplied.
- FIG 3 shows the cooling chamber 1 according to the invention according to the seventh exemplary embodiment. This essentially concerns the treatment of the steam-air mixture 5' which has been sucked out of the cooling chamber 1 and - as described above - preferably already preconditioned.
- the second portion of the steam-air mixture preferably first passes through a cooler Z2 for cooling purposes.
- the steam-air mixture 5' is further preconditioned for a subsequent removal of (air) moisture.
- a dehumidifier Z3 is connected downstream of the cooler Z2 for dehumidifying the cooled steam-air mixture by (out) condensing.
- the dehumidifier is followed by a filter Z4 for cleaning the steam-air mixture and a heat exchanger Z1 for reheating the dehumidified and cooled steam-air mixture, preferably by removing heat from the supplied second portion of the extracted steam-air mixture at the inlet Conditioning device Z.
- the incoming steam-air mixture is advantageously pre-cooled before it reaches the cooler Z2.
- the conditioning device Z finally outputs a conditioned steam-air mixture 5".
- the conditioning device Z does not necessarily have to have all of the components mentioned, such as the cooler Z2, the dehumidifier Z3, the filter Z4 and the heat exchanger Z1. Depending on the design, it can the conditioning device Z also only contains individual components.
- the steam-air mixture 5" conditioned in this way is passed to a second distribution device Z7_2.
- This second distribution device for example designed in the form of a second distribution flap, serves to variably divide the conditioned steam-air mixture 5" into a first and a second subset.
- the first subset is fed back into the cooling chamber 1 via a second partial air return line 17 as the additionally supplied air 14 or a portion thereof.
- this is done with the addition of hall air 80 or fresh air 70, as described above with reference to Fig. 1 already described and as described in Fig. 3 third distribution device Z7_3 indicated by dashed lines.
- the second subset of the conditioned steam-air mixture 5" is led via an output line 18 into the hall 200 surrounding the strand guide device 10 or outside the hall 200.
- the second distribution device Z7_2 is followed by a damper Z6 for dampening the flow noise of the second subset of the conditioned steam-air mixture 5" in the output line 18.
- FIG. 4 illustrates an eighth embodiment of the invention.
- a plurality of cooling chambers 1, 1 ' are arranged one behind the other, through which the casting strand 13 cast in the mold 40 passes through one after the other.
- two adjacent cooling chambers 1, 1' are each connected to one another via an (exhaust) air duct 50, which extends in the casting direction G, and thus form an overall system that communicates with one another in terms of air technology.
- the downstream cooling chambers 1' in the casting direction G no longer each have their own lateral suction device, but instead the exhaust air, ie the steam-air mixture, is also drawn from the downstream cooling chambers 1' against the casting direction G through the Said air duct 50 is sucked into the first uppermost cooling chamber 1, ultimately caused by the suction device 20 assigned to the first cooling chamber.
- the extracted exhaust air passes through an air washer 52 within the air ducts 50 before it reaches the first uppermost cooling chamber 1 and there from the said Suction device 20 is sucked off. By first passing through the air washer 52, the exhaust air from a cooling chamber is pre-cleaned before it reaches the first or uppermost cooling chamber.
- the air washers 52 are operated with water.
- the water required for this can be taken from the secondary cooling water circuit, with which the casting strand 13 is cooled in the upper cooling chambers (secondary). This is possible because, as mentioned, there is not a particularly high cooling capacity, particularly in the cooling chambers arranged further down in the casting direction G more is required; The (secondary) cooling water available there can therefore be used for the air washers there to clean the exhaust air.
- the air channels 50 are virtually assigned to the cooling chambers 1'; In this respect, the exhaust air is cleaned with the help of the air washers 52, so to speak, within the downstream cooling chambers 1 '.
- the cooling water from the secondary cooling water circuit used to operate the air washer 52 does not need to be specially conditioned beforehand. After it has passed through the air washer 52, it can be fed back into the secondary cooling water circuit and it does not have to be separately processed for this purpose. This leads to additional water savings. Overall, the use of the air washer 52 brings about a significant pre-cleaning, ie reduction of the pollutant content in the exhaust air of the respective cooling chamber.
