[Industrial Application Field] The present invention is a method for producing chromium-containing hot metal without using electricity as energy for smelting, in which chromium ore is used as part of the chromium source and the smelting reduction of the chromium ore is also carried out. This invention relates to a thermoeconomic method for producing chromium-containing hot metal that can be carried out simultaneously. [Prior Art] Conventionally, as a method for producing chromium-containing hot metal for producing stainless steel, a method using an electric furnace has formed one technological system. In this method, a chromium source, coke, flux, and optionally auxiliary materials are charged into a steelmaking arc furnace and melted to obtain chromium-containing hot metal. High carbon ferrochrome is usually used as the chromium source in this case. An electric furnace is also used to produce this high carbon ferrochrome, and in this case semi-reduced pellets of chromium ore or sintered ore are used. Since this conventional method consumes a very large amount of electricity, in recent years, the development of a method for directly melting and reducing chromium ore using a reducing agent such as carbonaceous material has been promoted. The trend seems to be to focus on smelting and reducing chromium ore using converters. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 58-77548,
JP-A-59-145758, JP-A-59-150059, JP-A-59-150060, JP-A-59-150061
JP-A-59-150062, etc. disclose melting and reduction of chromium ore using a converter. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 116363/1983 discloses a method for melting and reducing chromium ore using a special mixed layer. On the other hand, a patent application filed in 1983 by the same applicant as the present application
In No. 18219 (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 162718/1983),
We proposed a method of melting and reducing chromium ore as part of the chromium source by using a special vertical furnace and injecting powdered chromium ore as part of the chromium source into the tuyeres of this vertical furnace.
The gist of the method using a vertical furnace proposed by this applicant is to produce chromium-containing hot metal using a vertical furnace that has a raw material charging port in the upper part of the furnace and two stages of upper and lower tuyere near the bottom of the furnace. The chromium source, iron source, carbon material, and slag material are charged from the upper raw material charging port.
By blowing hot air through the upper and lower tuyeres and at the same time supplying powdered chromium ore and heat generating material from the tuyeres into the furnace, chromium-containing hot metal is obtained while melting and reducing the powdered chromium ore. . [Object of the Invention] The present invention is based on the aforementioned Japanese Patent Application No. 59-18219.
This is an attempt to further improve the smelting reduction method for chromium ore using a vertical furnace, which was proposed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-162718. In particular, we aim to solve the unresolved problems regarding the reaction behavior near the two-stage tuyere of this vertical furnace and provide a method for melting and reducing chromium ore with good thermal efficiency. . [Means for Achieving the Object] The present invention provides a method for producing chromium-containing hot metal using a vertical furnace having a raw material charging port in the upper part of the furnace and upper and lower tuyeres near the lower part of the furnace. Iron source, carbon material, slag material, and chromium source are charged from the raw material charging port of In a method of producing chromium-containing hot metal by melting and reducing powdery chromium ore by supplying slag material into a furnace, the blowing speed of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air that is blown from the upper and lower two stages of tuyeres is 100m/
It is characterized by being controlled more than s. FIG. 1 shows an example of a vertical furnace for carrying out the method of the present invention. As shown in the figure, this vertical furnace consists of a vertically long shaft as a whole, and the upper part of this furnace has a raw material charging port 1, and the lower part has two stages consisting of an upper tuyere 2 and a lower tuyere 3. A tuyere is provided. 4 is a hot air stove, and hot air obtained from this hot air stove 4 is supplied to each tuyere 2 and 3. At this time, the oxygen source 5 makes it possible to enrich the hot air with oxygen. The powdered chromium ore 15 in the container 6 and the container 7 are delivered to the upper tuyere 2 together with this high-temperature oxygen-enriched air.
The powdered slag materials 16 inside are supplied by carrier gas 8 and are blown into the furnace. If necessary, ferroalloy powder such as high carbon ferrochrome powder, ferrosilicon powder, SiC, CaC, etc.
Powdered substances such as CaC that react with oxygen and generate heat are also supplied into the furnace by the carrier gas 8. In the figure, numerals 10 to 12 are containers containing high-carbon ferrochrome as a chromium source, steel scrap as an iron source, coke as a carbon material, limestone and fluorite as a slag material, etc. The raw material to be charged at the top of the furnace is charged into the furnace from the raw material charging port 1 while being weighed by a measuring device 13 to a predetermined amount. The present inventors investigated how to melt and reduce powdered chromium ore, which is injected into the furnace from the upper tuyere, in a thermally efficient manner when injecting chromium ore using such a vertical furnace. We conducted repeated experiments with this point in mind. That is, the powdered chromium ore that is injected into the furnace from the upper tuyere together with the powdered slag material is melted in the coke combustion area in front of the upper tuyere, and is reduced while the melt drips through the coke packed bed. However, this reduction reaction is an endothermic reaction. Therefore, if heat is not efficiently supplied from the coke combustion gas generated in front of the lower tuyere, which is the heat medium, to the area where the molten chromium ore is being reduced, the smelting reduction reaction of the chromium ore will occur. is significantly inhibited, reducing the yield of chromium and making it difficult to produce stable chromium-containing hot metal. As a result of repeated experimental studies by the inventors, this phenomenon is caused by conditions in which chromium ore, which has become molten in front of the upper tuyere, selectively drips in a narrow area with respect to the cross section of the furnace. It was found that this occurs when The gist of the present invention is to distribute the dripping area of molten chromium ore, which has been blown into the furnace from the upper tuyere into a molten state, over a wide area with respect to the cross section of the furnace, in order to prevent such conditions from occurring. be. The most effective and simple means to achieve this is to increase the velocity (Vb) of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air blown from the upper and lower tuyeres to (Vb) ≧ 100 ( m/s). Figure 2 shows that during an experiment to produce chromium-containing hot metal using an experimental furnace, the furnace was rapidly cooled so that the conditions inside the furnace could be preserved, and then the furnace was dismantled and investigated. This diagram illustrates the situation inside the furnace near the tuyere. As shown in Figure 2, during the production of chromium-containing hot metal, the upper tuyere 2
A space called a raceway 20 in which carbonaceous materials such as metallurgical coke are burned is formed at the front of the lower tuyere 3 inside the furnace. There is a region 21 where the ore drips a packed bed of carbonaceous material. In this region 21, chromium oxides and iron oxides present in molten oxides such as chromium ore are reduced by carbon in the carbonaceous material, producing molten metal with a high chromium concentration, and The chromium concentration in it decreases. As a result, molten oxide with a low chromium concentration and molten metal with a high chromium concentration drip onto the bottom of the furnace, and molten materials such as steel scrap charged from the top of the furnace also drip and eventually reach the bottom of the furnace. Chromium-containing hot metal will accumulate. In Figure 2, 2
2 is a region where molten oxides are accumulated, 23 is a region where chromium-containing hot metal is accumulated, and 24 is a region where steel scraps etc. charged from the upper part of the furnace are melted and dripped. Under such conditions inside the furnace during the production of chromium-containing hot metal, the velocity (Vb) of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air blown into the furnace from the upper and lower tuyeres was set to (Vb) < 100 (m/s). At times, the chromium ore melt was found to selectively drip over a narrow area relative to the furnace cross-section. For this purpose, from the combustion gas of the carbonaceous material generated in front of the lower tuyere 3, the dripping area 2
1, the reaction heat necessary for melting and reducing the chromium ore is not efficiently supplied, and as a result, the melting and reducing of the chromium ore in the furnace does not progress smoothly, unless the amount of exothermic material blown is increased. The yield of chromium was poor. On the other hand, keeping other operating conditions the same, the velocity (Vb) of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air is set to (Vb) ≧100.
(m/s), the region where the chromium ore melt dripped was widely distributed with respect to the cross section of the furnace. For this purpose, heat is efficiently supplied from the combustion gas of the carbonaceous material to this dripping region 21, and as shown in Fig. 3, the amount of heat supplied to the furnace is effectively used for melting and reducing the chromium ore. percentage of heat consumed,
In other words, the thermal efficiency is higher than when the experiment is conducted under the condition of (Vb) < 100 (m/s), and the yield of chromium is high. It was found that good yields were obtained. Note that the velocity (Vb) of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air blown into the furnace can be calculated using the following formula. Vb=BV/{π・(D T /2) 2 } Where, BV: Flow rate of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air blown into each tuyere (m 3 /s), D T : Tuyere diameter (m), π: Pi. The results of the experiment using the experimental reactor are described below. Experimental example 1 A vertical furnace with an inner diameter of 0.6 m as shown in Fig. 1 was charged with top charging material in the amount shown in Table 1 from the top of the furnace, and the upper and lower stages with an inner diameter of 16 mm were charged into the upper and lower stages. From the mouth, high-temperature oxygen-enriched air with a temperature of 800℃ and an oxygen concentration of 28.5% is pumped at a flow rate of 1Nm 3 /min at 284m/s.
Blow into the furnace at a speed of , and from the upper tuyeres,
A mixture of powders shown in Table 2 was blown into the furnace.
As a result, the unreduced chromium concentration in the slag taken out from the slag was 0.8%, and the chromium yield was 97.9%, making it possible to successfully melt and reduce chromium ore, as shown in Table 3. We were able to obtain chromium-containing hot metal with a similar composition.

結果となつた。[Table] Experimental Example 3 Chromium-containing hot metal was produced under substantially the same conditions as in Experimental Example 1, except that high-temperature oxygen-enriched air was blown at a speed of 68 m/s from upper and lower tuyeres with an inner diameter of 35 mm. That is, the inner diameter of the tuyere was made larger than in Experimental Example 1, and high-temperature oxygen-enriched air at the same flow rate of 1 Nm 3 /min as in Experimental Example 1 was blown at a lower velocity (68 m/s). In this case, the unreduced chromium concentration in the slag is

If the flow rate of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air is slow as in Experimental Example 3, even if a heat generating material is used, the unreduced chromium concentration in the slag will be high and the chromium yield will not be sufficient. On the other hand, as in Experimental Example 1, when the blowing speed of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air is increased, the unreduced chromium concentration in the slag decreases even with the same amount of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air blown, and the chromium yield increases. becomes higher. In addition, as in Experimental Example 2, when the blowing speed of high-temperature oxygen-enriched air is high, the unreduced chromium concentration in the slag is sufficiently low even without using a heat generating material, resulting in a high chromium yield.
