Abstract

An efficient long-service-life blowing method include the steps of introducing vanadium extraction converter flue gas and decarburization converter flue gas into an oxygen combustor; obtaining first-purity CO2—N2 mixed gas through the vanadium extraction converter flue gas; obtaining second-purity CO2—N2 mixed gas through the decarburization converter flue gas; obtaining O2—CO2—N2 mixed gas through the decarburization converter flue gas; obtaining first-purity CO2 gas through the second-purity CO2—N2 mixed gas; and using the first-purity CO2—N2 mixed gas for bottom blowing of the vanadium extraction converter, using the second-purity CO2—N2 mixed gas as a carrier gas for blowing iron ore powder into the vanadium extraction converter, and using the O2—CO2—N2 mixed gas and the first-purity CO2 gas as a carrier gas for bottom blowing of the decarburization converter and bottom injecting of lime powder into the decarburization converter.

smelting a molten iron in a vanadium extraction converter;
smelting a vanadium-depleted molten iron from the vanadium extraction converter in a decarburization converter;
combustion on combusting a flue gas from the vanadium extraction converter to obtain a first CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas having a first purity;
combusting a flue gas from the decarburization converter to obtain a second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas having a second purity;
combusting a flue gas from the decarburization converter flue gas to obtain an O 2 —CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas;
purifying a first portion of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas in a purification device to obtain a CO 2 gas;
bottom blowing the vanadium extraction converter with the first CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas;
blowing iron ore powder into the vanadium extraction converter with a second portion of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas; and
bottom blowing the decarburization converter and/or bottom injecting lime powder into the decarburization converter with a mixture of a third portion of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas, the O 2 —CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas, and the CO 2 gas.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein
the smelting process of the vanadium extraction converter comprises a first smelting stage, a second smelting stage, and a third smelting stage,
wherein the first CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas is bottom blown into the vanadium extraction converter at an intensity of 0.03-0.3 Nm 3 /t/min throughout the smelting process in the vanadium extraction converter;
wherein, in the first smelting stage and the second smelting stage in the vanadium extraction converter, the second stream of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas blows iron ore powder into the vanadium extraction converter at an intensity of 0.1-0.5 Nm 3 /t/min, and an iron ore powder intensity of 0-2 kg/t/min;
wherein, in the third smelting stage in the vanadium extraction converter, the second portion of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas continuously blows into the vanadium extraction converter at an intensity of 0.1-0.5 Nm 3 /t/min;
wherein the smelting process in the decarburization converter comprises a first smelting stage, a second smelting stage, and a third smelting stage,
wherein, in the first smelting stage and the smelting second stage in the decarburization converter, when the lime powder is not blown, the third portion of the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas is bottom blown into the decarburization converter; when the lime powder is blown, the lime powder is blown into the decarburization converter using the O 2 —CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas as a carrier gas at an intensity of 0.5-1.5 Nm 3 /t/min and a lime powder intensity of 0-5 kg/t/min; and
in the third smelting stage in the decarburization converter, the decarburization converter is bottom blown using a mixture of the CO 2 gas and industrial pure O 2 at a gas supply intensity 0.5-1.5 Nm 3 /t/min.

the second CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas comprises 50-80% by volume of CO 2 , 20-50% by volume of N 2 , and not higher than 2% by volume of O 2 and CO;
the O 2 —CO 2 —N 2 mixed gas comprises 20-60% by volume of O 2 , 20-65% by volume of CO 2 , 10-40% by volume of N 2 , and less than 0.1% by volume of CO; and
in the CO 2 gas, comprises more than 99% by volume of CO 2 and less than 1% O 2 and CO.
