Abstract:To meet the low-silicon smelting requirements of blast furnaces at Qingdao Special Steel,measures such as optimizing raw material and fuel management(coking coal M40≥85%,CSR≥65%),operating systems(oxygen enrichment rate≥3.5%,slag basicity 1.18~1.23),thermodynamic regulation(physical heat≥1 500℃),and equipment modification were implemented.As a result,the silicon content in molten iron was reduced from 0.433%to 0.415%,achieving the goal of reducing fuel consumption and lowering the cost per ton of iron,directly creating an annual benefit of 9.96 million Yuan.
