Abstract:The preparation of hydrogen-rich reduction gas meeting the requirements of the direct reduction iron process is one of the key links to ensure the success of the direct reduction iron process, so it is important to solve the problem of the selection of the reduction gas preparation parameters. Based on the principle of material balance and chemical thermodynamic equilibrium, a "H-C-O system mass balance and chemical equilibrium diagram" (H-C-O balance diagram) was innovatively constructed and a graphical method to determine the process parameters of preparing hydrogen-rich reducing gas from the H-C-O balance diagram have been developed. The construction principle, including the design process of nH2O/nCH4 and nCO2/nCH4 scales, and how to use the graphical method of the H-C-O balance diagram are introduced. By using this graphical method, the position of any gas composition in the H-C-O balance diagram, the mol amount of H2O and CO2 that should be added to 1 mol CH4 gas when preparing the reduction gas with a given nH2/nCO composition, the source gas ratio for preparing any given gas composition, and the carbon deposition region for preparing hydrogen-rich reduction gas can be determined. In addition, an example for preparing hydrogen-rich reduction gas using the mixed gas(volume percent, for example 30%NG + 70%COG) of natural gas (NG) and coke oven gas (COG) as the gas source was taken in detail for determining the mol amount of the mixed gas of CO and CO2 to be added. Furthermore, a briefly introduction for the "critical carbon deposition curve" and "carbon deposition " region in the process of preparing hydrogen-rich reduction gas by reforming natural gas or coke oven gas is conducted and the influence of reforming temperature, total system pressure and nH2/nCO of the reduction gas on the critical carbon deposition curve and carbon deposition region are discussed. The abovementioned achievement provides a new theoretical and guiding basis for the selection of process parameters for the preparation of hydrogen-rich reduction gas from natural gas reforming or coke oven gas reforming.
