問題があった。However, even if the above prior art is used,
In order to actually perform the operation, the hydrogen, steam amount, iron powder transfer speed, etc. supplied to the furnace should be controlled so that C, O, N, S in the product steel powder discharged from the furnace after the heat treatment is maintained at a constant quality. The operating conditions must be adjusted. However, in the current moving bed furnace that continuously performs reduction, decarburization and denitrification, the above operating conditions cannot be adjusted until the analysis results of C, O, N and S in the iron and steel powder discharged from the furnace are obtained. There was a drawback.
In other words, even if it was found from the analysis result of the product steel powder after the heat treatment that the defective quality had occurred, there was a problem that the action would be too late if the operating conditions were changed.

中のＣ，Ｏ，Ｎとの関係を利用した。Next, the finish heat treatment method according to the present invention will be described. As a concrete operating condition, the furnace temperature is set to 950 ° C., and hydrogen is supplied from the gas injection pipe 5 installed in the denitrification zone 4 to 1
0 to 200 Nm 3 / hr, 50 to 100 Nm 3 of hydrogen from the gas injection pipe 5 installed in the deoxidation zone 3, and 0 to 40 kg of water vapor from the gas injection pipe 5 installed in the decarburization zone 2.

似の操作を行いつつ操業することになる。That is, looking at the decarburization zone (see FIG.
When the C content of the product steel powder is set to 0.005 wt%, the CO concentration in the atmosphere gas in the decarburization zone should be 3%.
It must be vol%. Therefore, when the suction gas from the zone is always continuously analyzed and the CO concentration analysis value is 5.0 vol%, the relationship between the hydrogen gas flow rate and the CO amount in the atmosphere as shown in FIG. With the help of the arithmetic control means that is input, the appropriate hydrogen gas flow rate to be supplied to the zone is calculated, and the calculated value (16
0 Nm 3 / hr). Instead of adjusting the flow rate of hydrogen gas as described above, the moving speed of crude iron and steel powder and the amount of CO in the atmosphere (vo
1%) is input, with the aid of the arithmetic control means, the proper crude iron and steel powder movement speed is calculated,
You may change and adjust to a calculated value (for example, 40 cm / min). In the deoxidizing zone and the denitrifying zone, the operation is performed while performing the same operation as above.

Therefore, C in iron and steel powder discharged from the furnace after heat treatment,
The operation of finishing heat treatment can be controlled by analyzing the atmospheric gas in each zone without waiting for the analysis of O and N.
