| 20100024599 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING MOLTEN MATERIAL - A method for producing molten material, wherein oxygen, reducing agents and iron that has been reduced in a reduction reactor are introduced into a melter gasifier. The reducing agent is gasified with the oxygen and the heat thereby produced melts the reduced iron. Cupola gas from the melter gasifier is used at least as a portion of the reduction gas, and reacted top gas is withdrawn from the reduction reactor. The aim of the invention is to increase energy efficiency and raw material efficiency as well as productivity while at the same time obtaining metallurgically improved properties of the product. For this purpose, at least a portion of the top gas is branched off from the line for the withdrawal of the top gas from the reduction reactor and is returned via at least one return line leading to the melter gasifier and is introduced into the melter gasifier. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100043599 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING MOLTEN MATERIAL - In a method for the production of molten metal, oxygen, a reducing agent and iron reduced in a reduction reactor are introduced into a melt gasifier, the reducing agent is gasified with oxygen and reduced iron is melted by means of the heat which occurs, the cupola gas being used as at least a fraction of the reduction gas. Reacted top gas is drawn off from the reduction reactor. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20100133723 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING MOLDINGS - A method for producing moldings, in particular briquettes, from fine-grained to medium-grained mixed material using organic binders. In a first stage, the mixed material is heated to a temperature necessary for the molding operation. In a second, atmospherically separate stage, mixing of the mixed material with binder is performed, as well as downstream steps of the process. The method allows hazardous emissions to be avoided. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100313711 | METHOD FOR THE MELTING OF PIG IRON WITH THE RECIRCULATION OF BLAST FURNACE GAS AND WITH THE ADDITION OF HYDROCARBONS - A method for the melting of pig iron in a blast furnace ( | 12-16-2010 |
| 20110030507 | PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING LIQUID PIG IRON OR LIQUID PRIMARY STEEL PRODUCTS - A process and an apparatus for producing liquid pig iron or liquid primary steel products from charge materials formed by iron ores and additions. The charge materials are subjected to a further reduction in a reducing zone ( | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110146485 | PROCESS GAS PURIFICATION DEVICE FOR A MELT REDUCTION SYSTEM FOR EXTRACTING PIG IRON - Process gas purification device ( | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110170114 | METHOD OF CONTROLLING A TRANSFORMATION PROCESS OF CHARGE MATERIAL TO A PRODUCT - A method for controlling a transformation process in which the conversion of charge materials to a product takes place along a transformation interface from the crystal and/or grain and/or phase and/or pore surface into the charge material, wherein one or more chemical elements in the charge materials is released and/or incorporated and/or rearranged and wherein the conversion of the charge materials takes place along advancing transformation interfaces. The charge materials are identified on the basis of at least one optical, in particular microscopic, analysis with respect to their phases and/or phase components and/or their phase morphology, structure, texture and/or their chemical composition. On the basis of these variables, reference functions for the charge materials, which describe the conversion of the charge materials in the process, are assigned and used for establishing the process parameters of the transformation process. | 07-14-2011 |
| 20110283837 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING A SMELTING REDUCTION PROCESS - In a method and a device for operating a smelting reduction process, at least part of an export gas from a blast furnace or a reduction unit is thermally utilized in a gas turbine and the exhaust gas of this gas turbine is used in a waste heat steam generator to generate steam. The remaining part of the export gas is fed to a CO2 separation apparatus, the tail gas thereby obtained being fed to a waste heat steam generator and burned for additional steam generation. The combustible components of the tail gas are sent for thermal utilization in a steam generator, so that the overall energy balance of the thermal use of the export gas is improved. In addition, a further part of the export gas is qualitatively improved by the CO2 separation apparatus, so as to generate a high-quality reduction gas which can be supplied for metallurgical use. | 11-24-2011 |
