Refractory ceramic fiber performance and development prospects

In recent years, high-temperature ceramic fiber kiln firing the application prospect of expanding to all kinds of ceramic fiber insulation products to good effect, easy to use, especially in small storage and other features, widely used in all kinds of kilns , which greatly shows high energy efficiency.
(A) variety and performance: ceramic refractory fibers most important indicator is the fiber diameter and thermal stability. Commonly used in ceramic industry is Al2O3SiO2 fiber, according to the level of Al2O3 content into different scope of use, but also to introduce them to improve their Cr2O3 refractory material with antioxidant properties. Generally high alumina content, low content of iron and other impurities fiber product was pure white, chromium oxide fibers were introduced Pins milk yellow color tone. The average diameter of the ceramic fibers of 2-4 microns. Fiber fineness, low density, low thermal conductivity by use of high temperature. If crude fiber, high density use is not ideal. The thermal stability index fiber is more important. Al2O3-SiO2 fiber variety of products at 1260 ℃ linear shrinkage between the range of 35-88%. Also directly affects the amount of shrinkage thermal stability.
Low thermal conductivity of the fiber density, light weight, the design and construction of the furnace are used when lighter steel support structure, so that the development of ceramic kiln into the "kiln lightweight" era. Fiber regenerative small, adapt to rapid heating and cooling firing mode. Flexible fibers can be processed into products with recesses or openings, and has good resistance to mechanical vibration and shocks, good chemical stability, these advantages is the development of a new furnace, and spread to ceramic technology, industry have an important role in promoting development.
Currently ceramic fiber products are: carpets, blankets, blocks, bulk fiber, fiber paper and vacuum forming of various products, the working range is generally 871-1427 ℃, special circumstances may be short-term temperatures above the temperature limit is used.
(2) masonry methods and precautions: refractory fiber felt for furnace lining can greatly improve energy efficiency. General use of synthetic organic binder so that the fiber volume tubular or sheet-shaped fabric. Lightweight high temperature furnace brick masonry wall, the available refractory ceramic fiber blanket paste into the lining, after firing, the fiber mat or plate form a certain rigidity and ability to have satisfactory reply, the cooling time can play back so that the seam taut.
Masonry fibers are usually two ways: First, the rugs applicator layer by layer, and then the bolt lever riveted together, usually in the 1222 ℃ temperature below with metal bolt rod, 1223 ℃ above using ceramic quality rivet. Side by side with the bulk heat resistant fiber and cement filling. Riveting quality ceramic pieces can prevent deposition of carbon fiber deterioration. The second method is the use of prefabricated assembly, which uses rugs stacked preform or the rugs with a wide 305mm folded accordion style preform. In comparison, the latter due to the hot surface next to the furnace shell are the same materials, energy efficient, but the cost is higher.
Temperature, the fiber preform required masonry seam formed elastic fiber inlay. Prefabricated assembly, easy installation, quick and easy maintenance, simply replace the damaged part down.
On the thermal efficiency, the layers of the applicator way better than prefabricated assembly. Because the former fiber direction perpendicular to the heat, the stack assembly of prefabricated shaped fiber direction parallel to the heat flow difference between the two is about 20-40% of the heat conductivity, such as accordion-like assembly of the preform folded in between its fiber direction parallel and perpendicular to the heat flow.
(3) Prospect: Due to rising energy prices, fuel costs will become a bottleneck in the development of ceramics curb, saving even more important. People are increasingly concerned about the heat loss of the furnace, some directly affixed to the original surface layer of refractory lining refractory ceramic fibers in order to improve thermal efficiency. In the kiln must be affixed to the wall before the apparent cracks or spalling parts repaired. But insulating firebrick and refractory fiber can not be indiscriminate. So far, such as basic oxygen steelmaking furnaces, cement rotary kiln lining, serious erosion due to high temperature chemistry are temporarily unavailable fiber as lining.
For continuous heating equipment, such as ceramic tunnel kiln, have long been used as a refractory ceramic fiber lining continuous heating equipment, according to the information reported, quickly push board kiln and tunnel kiln refractory ceramic fibers used in energy-saving effect is very significant. In particular, ultra high temperature heating, such as firing temperature 1538 ℃ -1649 ℃ kiln, the use of the best energy-resistant fiber.
At present, Europe and Japan ceramic kiln equipment used ceramic fiber lining. Gas-fired tunnel kiln recently Japan will be decomposed into sub-sections such as car manufacturing structure, and then delivered to the construction site porcelain factory assembled, all this is due to the use of ceramic fiber material, saving furnace costs, easier sake. Modified from the material aspects of ceramic fiber products to promote energy efficiency study is also underway.

Furnace charging methods and requirements

First, the loading method
EAF is the most common cold loading, their way into the furnace is divided into different manual loading and mechanical loading.
Manual loading and more for a nominal capacity of less than 3t electric furnace, the disadvantage is the loading time is long, low productivity, labor-intensive.
Baskets top loading is the best method of loading speed, heat loss, and the charge can be installed in advance in advance, fabrics and reasonable.
Second, the requirements for loading
To shorten the time to ensure that the recovery rate of alloying elements, reducing power consumption and improving lining life, charging time required: accurate, pretend to be dense fabric reasonable and fast into the furnace.
Before loading, ingredients workers to conscientiously planned furnace, with the requirements of steel ingredients, according to the requirements of different kinds of steel craft, careful analysis and calculation, accurate ingredients. Therefore, the necessary approval required before loading into the steel material with the composition of the alloy composition, but also to check metering equipment to ensure full penetration after suitable chemical composition, weight accurately, in order to facilitate the smooth progress of smelting.
Dense packed charge, can be obtained once entirety, and can improve the conductivity of the charge transfer performance, the electrode wear well, the muffle furnaces arc stability, and is conducive to melt. To achieve a dense, smooth loading time will depend on large, medium and small charge a reasonable match. Typically, the charge is less than 10kg of petit material, 10 ~ 25kg called the material, more than 50kg called aniseed. When charging, the charge capacity of different furnaces have different size requirements, but the charge may not exceed the maximum total weight of the charge 1/50.
Reasonable fabric is more important, generally is part of the small material miscellaneous iron baskets mounted on the bottom, in a small material above the center of the baskets loaded aniseed or refractory material, intermediate fill small material, so smooth, dense, large gaps, making it conducive to conducting, but also to eliminate and prevent the collapse of the bridge material is broken electrode material. The remaining material packed in small aniseed or refractory material on top and around. Finally, in the upper part of baskets loaded material weight 0.02% to 0.03% of the miscellaneous iron, in order to facilitate arc, stable arc current and reduce radiation damage on the lid.
Steel slag, Tang Tao steel and other difficult-conductive charge should be installed in a place away from the electrodes, so as not to affect the conductivity. Do not install in the vicinity of pig iron door, but to be installed in aniseed or refractory material around facilitate its carburizing effect, reducing aniseed or refractory material melting, thus speeding up the melting. Where the alloy into the furnace, in order to ensure the recovery rate of the elements should be based on their different physical and chemical properties installed in different locations, such as tungsten, molybdenum, iron high melting point, easily oxidized, can be installed in the high temperature zone, but do not install in the arc below; ferrochrome, nickel plate, ferromanganese, etc. should be installed in a position away from the high temperature zone, to reduce their volatilization losses.
The furnace temperature is high in the middle, surrounded by low, so the cloth should be done high in the middle, surrounded by low. In addition, you should also ensure Chuanjing fast, do not bypass, after the furnace door and slope without aniseed, no refractory material.

Industrial furnace controlled atmosphere

Controlled atmosphere Principle:
Metal furnace heated in the flame, the main component of the atmosphere surrounding the CO2, CO, H2O, H2, O2 and N2, etc. Including CO2, H2O and O2 to metal oxidation or decarburization; H2 and CO is a reducing gas; N. In addition to the particular metal, in general, is an inert gas, but in general contain a small amount of nitrogen oxide impurities, directly to the heat treatment can also cause oxidation.
Each direction of a reversible reaction, according to their chemical equilibrium constant and the temperature. That is, the furnace gas is an oxidizing or reducing, depending on the temperature of the furnace gas in the ratio of the content of the gas may be. Iron redox shown FIG. For example, at 825 ℃, when the CO and CO2 content and the ratio of H2 and H2O in the ratio greater than 2, the iron is not oxidized, but it is difficult to stabilize combustion control in this state, even if done, when the temperature drop to below 750 ℃, this atmosphere is oxidizing it. Therefore, in general, the flame furnace atmosphere is oxidizing or reducing is not controllable. Therefore, during the heat treatment, a chemical change when allowed, or only allowed to take place there is a change (such as carburization or decarburization etc.), only a radiation tube or muffle furnace electrically heated indirectly heated or modified and pass into the preform, the composition of the controlled atmosphere desirable.
Controlled atmosphere Category:
Controlled atmosphere metallurgical plants commonly used fuel preparation can be divided into the atmosphere, nitrogen-based controlled atmosphere, ammonia preparation of pure hydrogen atmosphere and so on.
Fuel preparation Atmosphere:
General use gas fuel (natural gas, propane, butane, and coke oven gas, etc.) or through incomplete combustion catalytic reaction, removal of CO2 and H2O from the system controlled atmosphere. When the heat released by the combustion process to maintain the reaction proceeds, the resulting gas is called exothermic atmosphere can be divided into Ⅰ, Ⅱ and type Ⅲ type, in order to adapt to different uses; When the excess air coefficient is very low, you must heat to maintain the reaction, the resulting clear endothermic gas atmosphere. Two kinds of combustible gases contained in the atmosphere based on the number, type and concentration can be divided into short type.
Nitrogen-based controlled atmosphere:
Mainly refers to the preparation of industrial nitrogen mixed atmosphere of nitrogen and hydrogen. Preparation exothermic fuel type Ⅱ and Ⅲ type also belong to this atmosphere. General separating oxygen from air or nitrogen pressure swing adsorption proceeds, oxygen is about 0.2% to 2%, only as a general controlled atmosphere diffuse gas; refined by oxygen is less than 10-5 nitrogen, can be used for light less demanding steel protective atmosphere. Should generally be mixed with a small amount of H2 or CH4, by catalytic deoxygenation dry before as a controlled atmosphere.
Preparation ammonia atmosphere:
Is evaporated with anhydrous ammonia through the catalyst interior, external heating to near 1000 ℃ tank reactor, the mixture containing 25% N2 and 75% H2 gas mixture, cooling, drying shall be controlled atmosphere of ammonia decomposition. Add ammonia of incomplete combustion air to remove CO2 and H2O, and then by further purification of the main component is obtained ammonia burner controlled atmosphere of N2.
Purity:
Solution with water or from a coke oven gas, chemical byproduct gas extracted by pressure swing adsorption method.
Controlled atmosphere choice:
Mainly based on the type of material and heat treatment process requirements to choose.
