Submerged Arc Furnace Smelting Process
01
SAF Submerged arc furnace is a closed environmentally friendly and energy-saving solution, suitable for ferroalloys (such as ferrotungsten, high carbon ferromanganese, high carbon ferrosilicon, high carbon ferrochrome, nickel ferroalloy) and industrial silicon, calcium carbide, corundum , yellow phosphorus, etc. Submerged arc furnace preheating can eliminate water and volatile components, thereby stabilizing smelting process conditions and reducing the unit energy consumption of the furnace.
02
Water injection into the furnace shell and forced ventilation at the bottom of the furnace ensure effective cooling. The thermally conductive carbon lining combined with effective cooling forms a spontaneous freezing layer on the hot side of the lining, minimizing lining erosion and improving thermal efficiency.
03
The characteristics of the submerged arc furnace are that it uses carbon or magnesium refractory materials as the furnace lining and uses self-trained electrodes.
04
The electrode is inserted into the charge to perform a submerged arc operation. The energy of the arc and the current passing through the charge are used to generate energy due to the resistance of the charge to smelt the metal. It is an industrial electric furnace that continuously feeds materials, taps iron slag intermittently, and operates continuously.
05
The submerged arc furnace transformer has a continuous and stable load, low impedance voltage, many voltage regulation stages, small step differences and strong overload capability.
06
Submerged arc furnaces can achieve extremely low specific energy consumption, low reducing agent and electrode consumption, and very high production throughputs. The enclosed design also minimizes dust emissions into the factory environment and surrounding atmosphere.
Sanrui Submerged Arc Furnace Technology Optimization
Using the best available technology (BAT), the ferrosilicon submerged arc furnace designed and manufactured by Sanrui adopts advanced tubular water-cooled furnace cover technology, tubular water-cooled furnace wall technology, copper-steel composite plate conductive cross arm technology, EBT steel-tapping technology, large-section water-cooled cable technology, PLC control technology, high impedance technology, auxiliary energy technologies such as carbon-oxygen gun oxygen burner, oxygen-enriched operation technology and hot iron charging technology, etc.
We provide a series of ferrosilicon furnace cover designs to suit different ferrosilicon furnace applications. The closed furnace cover solution makes smelting and maintenance safer. The furnace cover is usually made of water-cooled steel plate, but a combined solution combining water-cooled steel plate and refractory materials can also be used. The airtight seal ensures low emissions and efficient collection and utilization of CO gas.
Minimizes consumption of energy, coke and electrode paste
Achieves high productivity and metal recovery, especially when using pellets
Purified CO gas can be used effectively in different plant applications
Preheating to 600ºC saves 70 kWh per ton of metal smelted for every 100ºC increase in temperature
