Lance for fuel and oxygen injection into smelting or refining furnace

Patent Schlichting, Mark R [Chesterton, IN]

A furnace 10 for smelting iron ore and/or refining molten iron 20 is equipped with an overhead pneumatic lance 40, through which a center stream of particulate coal 53 is ejected at high velocity into a slag layer 30. An annular stream of nitrogen or argon 51 enshrouds the coal stream. Oxygen 52 is simultaneously ejected in an annular stream encircling the inert gas stream 51. The interposition of the inert gas stream between the coal and oxygen streams prevents the volatile matter in the coal from combusting before it reaches the slag layer. Heat of combustion is thus moremore » « less

Electrode Arrangement As Substitute Bottom For An Electrothermic Slag Smelting Furnace.

Patent Aune, Jan Arthur [Enebakk, NO]; Brinch, Jon Christian [Oslo, NO]; Johansen, Kai [Kristiansand, NO]

The electrode arrangement uses vertically oriented electrodes with side wall contacts for an electrothermic smelting furnace for aluminum production. The side wall contacts are radially moveable into the furnace to compensate for wear on the contacts. The side wall contacts can be hollow to allow a slag forming charge to be fed to the furnace.

Ferrosilicon smelting in a direct current furnace

Patent Dosaj, Vishu D [Midland, MI]; May, James B [Midland, MI]

The present invention is a process for smelting ferrosilicon alloy. The process comprises adding a carbon source and tailings comprising oxides of silicon and iron to a substantially closed furnace. Heat is supplied to the furnace by striking a direct current arc between a cathode electrode and an anode functional hearth. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cathode electrode is hollow and feed to the substantially closed furnace is through the hollow electrode.

Control of carbon balance in a silicon smelting furnace

Patent Dosaj, Vishu D [Midland, MI]; Haines, Cathryn M [Midland, MI]; May, James B [Midland, MI]; ...

The present invention is a process for the carbothermic reduction of silicon dioxide to form elemental silicon. Carbon balance of the process is assessed by measuring the amount of carbon monoxide evolved in offgas exiting the furnace. A ratio of the amount of carbon monoxide evolved and the amount of silicon dioxide added to the furnace is determined. Based on this ratio, the carbon balance of the furnace can be determined and carbon feed can be adjusted to maintain the furnace in carbon balance.

Chemical recovery process using break up steam control to prevent smelt explosions

Patent Kohl, Arthur L [Woodland Hills, CA]; Stewart, Albert E [Eagle Rock, CA]

An improvement in a chemical recovery process in which a hot liquid smelt is introduced into a dissolving tank containing a pool of green liquor. The improvement comprises preventing smelt explosions in the dissolving tank by maintaining a first selected superatmospheric pressure in the tank during normal operation of the furnace; sensing the pressure in the tank; and further impinging a high velocity stream of steam upon the stream of smelt whenever the pressure in the tank decreases below a second selected superatmospheric pressure which is lower than said first pressure.
