Abstract
For the blast furnace iron-making process which depends on the coke seriously and is the largest CO2 emission source in iron and steel industry, a novel technology integrated the blast furnace process and co-gasification of coal-COG-BF top gas is investigated and examined its potential of energy conservation and CO2 emission reduction. The mathematical model of the whole integrated process is established based on mass and heat balance principles. And typical operation analyses for the integrated process are demonstrated by this model. The results indicate that it takes about 4 times for the unsteady process caused by the recycling of BF top gas to reach steady. Compared with conventional blast furnace process, the coke ratios in two integrated process cases selected decrease by 33.5kg/tHM and 81.3kg/tHM obviously, and the fuel ratios decrease 1.1% and 8.2% due to the increase of coal ratios by 27.9kg/tHM and 39.1kg/tHM. The energy consumption decreases by 8.3% and 10.8%. And the CO2 emission decreases by 37.0% and 42.9%.
