Abstract

It is noted in the work that when mastering the technology of pulverized coal injection (PUT) at the metallurgical enterprises of Ukraine, it is necessary to intensify work, including research, in the direction of improving the quality characteristics of the sinter, the stability of its chemical composition and strength parameters. The analysis of the quality of iron ore raw materials used in sintering production in Ukraine and foreign countries is carried out. The requirements of international and domestic standards for the quality of raw materials and fuels, providing for the injection of large quantities of firearms into the furnace, are given. A methodology for determining the quality of raw materials developed in the HMI is described. The results of a study of the quality of iron ore raw materials according to the developed method are presented. Based on the analysis of the results of the research, requirements were developed for the quality of granular iron ore wastes and their rational amount in the composition of the sinter charge, and the process for the production of granules was developed. Recommendations have been developed on the use in the sinter mixture of a part of the granular components of secondary waste, which allowed to increase the content of secondary resources in the mixture. As a result, the chemical composition of the sinter was stabilized, its strength was improved, the yield of sinter of the second grade was reduced, the removal of blast furnace dust and coke consumption were reduced. Improving the quality of the sinter and the rational distribution of charge materials over the cross-section of the top of the blast furnace allows for self-renewal of the protective skull, to reduce the removal of top dust by 4.3 kg / t of cast iron, and to reduce coke consumption by 19.6 kg / t of cast iron. The developed measures make it possible to increase the competitiveness of products, even at the additional cost of preparing the sinter mixture for sintering.
