Abstract:How to cost-effectively reduce NOx emissions of the iron ore sintering process is a new challenge for iron and steel industries at present. Since there exists a working condition for the reduction of NO to N2 in the sintering bed, and calcium-containing compounds have a catalytic effect on the NO reduction reaction, the thermodynamics and kinetics of the main reduction reactions of NO are first discussed. It was concluded that the NO-CO reduction reaction had great advantages in thermodynamics and kinetics. Then, the catalytic mechanisms of NO-CO reduction reaction by calcium-containing compounds, such as CaO and calcium ferrites minerals were analyzed. Moreover, the influence of the reaction behavior regulations of primary calcium-containing compounds such as lime/limestone and secondary calcium-containing compounds such as calcium ferrites minerals on NO reduction in the sintering bed were discussed in detail. In addition, the development directions of promoting NO reduction were proposed by clarifying the main influencing factors of NO-CO reaction, the adsorption behaviors of CO and NO by calcium ferrite minerals, and the regulations of changing the height of the sinter bed combined with optimizing the reaction behaviors of calcium-containing compounds, respectively.
