the Coke supplies carbon monoxide to reduce the ore in a blast furnace and supplies heat to melt the iron.
Coke which supplies carbon monoxide to reduce the ore in a blast furnace and supplies heat to melt the iron.
to let air out
Limestone, dolomite, BOF slag, electric furnace slag, olivine
It removes the heavy dust particles coming along with the BF(Blast Furnace) gas by reducing the velocity of the gas so that the dust particles are left as the gas lost it's ability to carry the dust particles
Blast furnaces require you to go and stick dil*o up your vag, then lick my long john and give a fellatio to your cousin.
its used a fuel , but has less calorific value as the carbon monoxide percentage is less which is the main combustible gas in the b.f gas. its used in heating the blast of hot air in the blast furnance itself and also can be used in rolling mill, sinter plant, and many more where you need heating
through the top of the blast furnace
that would depend on the size of the blast furnace.
to reduce basicity
Limestone, Iron Ore and Coke.
to burn coke that will burn the raw material
Hot air is blasted into the blast furnace to burn the coke (a cheap form of carbon) added to form carbon dioxide.
Coke contains more carbon than coal and hence coke produces more heat
Carbon rich coke limestone and iron
Mainly the type of coke being used. The sulfur, ash and carbon content are different.
According to steel.nic.in; Coke Rate is measured in Kgs of BF Coke consumed per tonne of Hot Metal produced in the Blast Furnace(Kg/THM). By convention, this excludes coke (nut/pearl coke) mixed with sinter etc. Introduction of high quality coke to a blast furnace will result in lower coke rate, higher productivity and lower hot metal cost. This principal is followed by many private chemical firms like Coke Oven Consultants and so on.
Sinter, which is a mixture of iron ore, coke and limestone, and a blast of hot air. Externally to the furnace, iron ore, coke and limestone are mixed together Intimate mixing ensures that the reactants are as close as possible to each other. This is loaded into the top of the blast furnace. A blast of hot air ( ~ 1100 oC) is sent in at the bottom of the furnace, through tuyeres. The oxygen (air) is also one of the reactants. The products are tapped from the bottom of the furb=nace are liquid iron and 'slag' ( calcium silicate).
Occuring chemical reactions (coke combustion) are exothermic.
