Problems solved by technology

But its disadvantages are: the service life of the furnace lining is short; the consumption of reduced ferrosilicon is large; at present, ultra-low C, ultra-low nitrogen, and stainless steel cannot be produced, and the gas content in the steel is high; the consumption of argon is large
[0017] The above studies have increased the use of fine ore to a certain extent and reduced production costs, but they have not fundamentally changed the problems of high-quality lump ore and high power consumption for smelting ferrochrome in submerged arc furnaces.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for directly producing ferro chromium with chrome powder and coal. The chrome powder and the coal powder, etc are produced into carbon-bearing pellets, and the reaction temperature is controlled below the pellet soft melting temperature. The slag phase alkalinity is enhanced, to increase the reaction temperature as far as possible, thereby speeding up the reaction speed and improving the metal percent reduction. During the cooling process, the high alkalinity metallised pellet is naturally pulverized because of the existence of thermal stress and excessive carbon powder, and the ferro chromium can be obtained by sieving. Harmful elements of P, S, etc in the raw material are mainly reserved in the slag phase, and thereby the ferro chromium with low P and S content can be obtained. The method of the present invention replaces the traditional electric arc furnace smelting method, provides the ferro chromium with low cost for the smelting and the production of stainless steel, and reduces the dependence of the production of the ferro chromium on a large amount of electric power and lump ore. The ferro chromium is ferro chromium with low P and S content.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a direct reduction production method of ferrochrome. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for directly producing ferrochrome using chrome ore powder and coal. The production method provides low-cost ferrochrome for the production of stainless steel. The ferrochrome alloy is a ferrochrome alloy with low P and S content. Background technique [0002] The methods of smelting stainless steel are: one-step method, two-step method and three-step method. One-step method, that is, the electric furnace smelts stainless steel in one step. Since this method is a stainless steel production method with high cost and low productivity, it is rarely used at present. [0003] Many years ago, someone combined any of the VOD (vacuum oxygen blowing decarburization) and AOD (decarburization with argon and oxygen) refining devices with electric furnaces to form a two-step stainless steel production process, using electric furna...
