Abstract
The paper considers capabilities of the developed model-based decision support system (URFU-MMK model of the blast-furnace process) for diagnostics of operation and prediction of production situations at blast furnaces. It presents some results of practical application of the developed system and it also gives recommendations for certain aspects of process task solving on the basis of the model-based decision support system. It presents calculation results of blast furnace operation with a high portion of non-fluxed pellets from Sokolovsk-Sarbay Ore Mining and Processing Group in burden of MMK’s blast furnaces with different content of local sinter. It shows that with a higher portion of non-fluxed pellets (up to 60%) in the charged burden it is necessary to charge limestone in the furnace to achieve the required basicity of blast-furnace slag. In order to reduce the amount of crude limestone to be charged, it is necessary to produce sinter of high basicity. As far as the portion of pellets in the charged burden increases, concentration of magnesia in blast-furnace slag decreases. To increase concentration of magnesium oxides in slag, it is efficient to use combined basic flux consisting of 70% normal limestone and 30% dolomite limestone.
