Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the coal-based tunnel kiln canned external carbon method is used to produce direct reduced iron, which has the following disadvantages: (1) Due to the use of producer gas heating method, the heat is from the outside of the material through convection, conduction, radiation and other heat transfer methods from the surface to the inside The transfer takes a long time. The residence time of the existing process materials in the tunnel kiln reaches about 70 hours. It takes 12 hours to preheat to 1150°C, and 43 hours to restore. At the same time, the furnace body with a larger space is required. For heating, the thermal efficiency is low, and there are disadvantages such as long process time and high energy consumption.
(2) It is easy to cause uneven temperature distribution of materials, difficult to control product quality, easy to occur under-burning, over-burning and other phenomena, which will bring processing difficulties to subsequent processes
(3) Large investment and large floor area

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing direct-reduction iron by reducing carbon-containing iron ore powder in a microwave heating manner. A microwave heating manner is induced to a coal-based method direct-reduction iron preparation so as to replace the traditional coal heating manner, and high-quality direct-reduction iron is produced by utilizing self-reduction characteristics of iron ore powder, oxidizing slag and the like with coal powder. Through the method for preparing the direct-reduction iron by reducing the carbon-containing iron ore powder, the defects that the reduction time is long, the product quality is unlikely to control, the investment is large, the floor space is large and the like in a process of producing the direct-reduction iron by a coal-based tunnel kiln canning external carbon method can be effectively overcome, the production flow is simplified, the reduction time is largely shortened, the manual cost is reduced, and the certain energy-saving and emission reduction effect can be obtained.

Description
