Abstract

The concept of the expert decision-making system for technological process management, created earlier at the Iron and Steel Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, provides for the choice of a rational technology for out-of-furnace desulfurization of cast iron. The purpose of this work is the further development of information and mathematical support of the expert system module for out-of-furnace processing of cast iron by co-injection of magnesium and lime in the framework of the target project to create end-to-end technology for high quality metal products. An integrated database of cast iron desulfurization process of a number of metallurgical enterprises of the People's Republic of China and the domestic DMK plant is presented. Based on the analysis of technological data, empirical equations were obtained to determine the final sulfur content in the cast iron melt, as well as the expression for estimating the specific consumption of metallic magnesium in the reagent. The developed models for calculating the specific consumption of reagents are the basis of the algorithm for calculating the indicators of the process of desulfurization of cast iron with co-injection of magnesium and lime. The input parameters are: temperature of cast iron, mass of cast iron, chemical composition of cast iron and slag, sulfur content initial and final, the proportion of magnesium in the reagent. Replenishment of the database with information on the technology of desulfurization of cast iron with a mixture of magnesium and lime allowed to clarify the existing and obtain descriptive models for these reagents. The developed information and mathematical support of the subsystem of out-of-furnace processing of pig-iron takes into account material and energy costs for redistribution, providing resource savings and the required quality of metal products.
