Abstract

The effect on the slag formation behavior in the softening melting zone of a hydrogen-rich blast furnace is investigated by charging iron coke to the iron ore and controlling different volume fractions of hydrogen. The reduction mechanism of iron coke to iron ore under hydrogen-rich conditions is expounded that iron coke and hydrogen increase the concentration of CO around iron ore and promote its further reduction. The participation of iron coke and hydrogen promotes that FeO is reduced to Fe in iron ore, which prompts the production of high melting point substances in slag. The melting point of slag iron increases the melting start temperature. Hydrogen and iron coke promote the carburization of dripping iron so that molten iron drips quickly, which narrows the melting drop interval. From the perspective of the maximum pressure difference and the comprehensive permeability S value, the blast furnace permeability will be improved.
