    Sponge Iron Plant

    The production process of sponge iron involves four steps namely:

    i. Raw material preparation plant: The raw material preparation plant consists of

    crushers and screens through which the seized material required for process is

    prepared. Normally, jaw crushers are used for iron ore crushing and roll or impact

  • PREFEASIBILITY REPORT ASR STEELS & POWER PRIVATE LIMITED

    DETOX CORPORATION PRIVATE LIMITED 16 2015

    crushers for coal. The feeding for the crushers are done through the conveyors and

    vibrating feeders.

    ii. Stock house: The stock house consists of the raw material storage bins; which store

    material up to 24 hours plant requirement. There are four bins one each for iron ore,

    feed coal, dolomite and injection coal. The raw materials are fed into a rotary kiln

    through the volumetric/weigh feeders at a predetermined rate.

    iii. Reduction kiln: The processing of the materials consists mainly of kiln and cooler

    system. The iron ore is pre-heated and reduced in a rotary kiln and passes to the

    rotary cooler; where it gets cooled. The cooled material is then passes to the belt

    conveyor; where the cooler discharge is fed to the product house conveyor. The

    material is then led to the product separation circuit. An intermediate bin is provided

    to take care of any eventualities occurring due to breakdown of the product

    separation circuit.

    iv. Product separation plant: In the product separation section, the sponge iron and the

    coal-char (un-burnt coal) are separated. The cooler discharge material is screened to

    different sizes, and fed into magnetic separator. The sponge iron is magnetic and

    hence, it gets attracted to the magnet present in the magnetic separator and is

    discharged to separate bins the dust in the hot gases settles and gets cleaned.

    Operation of Rotary Kiln and Cooler:

    Rotary Kiln: Rotary kiln is 3.0 m in diameter and 42 m long; and it is positioned inclined at

    an angle of 1.432o approximately. It is rotated by AC variable speed motor at a stem less

    variable speed ranging from 0.2 to 1.0 RPM. Due to the inclination and the rotary motion in

    kiln; the material moves from the feed end of the kiln to the discharge end in approximately

    4.5 hours. The fine coal is blown from the discharge end to maintain the required

    temperature profile. The material and the hot gases move in the counter current direction.

    As a result, the iron ore gets preheated and gradually reduces by the time it reaches

    discharge end. The reduced material is then transferred to the rotary cooler via transfer

    chute.

    Rotary Cooler: The rotary cooler is 2.3 in diameter and 22 m in length. It is also inclined at

    1.432o approximately. It rotates at 1.2 RPM. It is driven by AC motor. The water is sprayed

    on top of shell; which cools the material inside the cooler indirectly. The material reaches 80 oC temperatures approximately; and discharged by the double pendulum valve to the

    conveyor. The double pendulum valve actually acts as a seal for prevention of atmospheric

  • PREFEASIBILITY REPORT ASR STEELS & POWER PRIVATE LIMITED

    DETOX CORPORATION PRIVATE LIMITED 17 2015

    air entering the rotary cooler. The material discharged on conveyor is then sent for product

    separation system. Here, the material is segregated in different sizes and also magnetic

    sponge iron is separated from non-magnetic char.

    The gases flowing into counter current direction gets to the dust-settling chamber and

    heavier particles settles down. These particles are continuously removed by the wet

    scrubbing system. The gases then pass to the Forced Draft (FD) Cooler; where the gases

    are cooled. The gases leaving the kiln are very hot and have a lot of heat energy. The gases

    are then passed through Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) for dust concentration to reduce

    below the acceptable norms and discharged to the atmosphere through stack of adequate

    height.

    Figure 4: Sponge Iron Manufacturing Flow Diagram

    Waste Heat Recovery Boiler System

    The waste heat recovery boilers are designed to operate only with the thermal energy in the

    Alloy Steel Product

    Induction arc Furnace

    The induction arc furnace is the principle furnace type for the production of the Alloy Steels.

    The primary application of the furnace is for the re-melting of the steel scrap or sponge iron.

    Furnace Operations:

    The induction arc furnace operates as a batch melting process producing batches of molten

    steel known “heats”. The furnace operating cycle is called the tap-to-tap cycle and is made

    up of the following operations:

    • Furnace charging

    • Melting

    • Refining

    • De-slagging

    • Tapping

    • Furnace turn-around

    Charging:

    The charging material consisting of steel scrap & additives is loaded into the furnace in such

    a way that large and high melting pieces stand parallel close to crucible while low melting

    Components in the middle of the crucible.

    Melting:

    At the beginning of melting the furnace works for 5 to 10 minutes on low power until the

    surge of current fed from the generator disappear. The furnace power is then brought up to

    a maximum. The charge melts with the crucible held closed. When the charge approaches

    the fluid stages than the solid pieces are pressed back with a crow bar. The furnace is then

    loaded to its capacity by adding small size of scrap as soon as the charge melted. The slag

    is formed to protect the metal from oxidation and to avoid reduce the melting loss. Excess

    slag is skimmed off periodically. At the last, Ferro Manganese, Silicon Manganese & Ferro

    Silicon is added to deoxidize the metal.

    Ladle Refining Furnace:

    Ladle refining furnace (LRFs) are used to desulfurize steels, remove other impurities and

    hold the molten steel for casting operations. Without LRFs, higher tap temperatures are

    normally required from steel making furnaces due to heat losses during refining during

  • PREFEASIBILITY REPORT ASR STEELS & POWER PRIVATE LIMITED

    DETOX CORPORATION PRIVATE LIMITED 19 2015

    conventional ladles. Costs of extended furnace time, refractory wear and power or fuel

    consumption can all be reduced using LRFs to perform holding and refining. The ladle

    refining furnace also acts as a buffer between the steel making furnace and continuous

    caster, reducing casting costs and allowing greater flexibility in steel making operations.

    Ladle Refining Process:

    Large ladles are used in most metal melting operations to transfer molten metal from

    melting furnaces to refining or pouring stations. Ladle refining furnaces are basically ladles

    with a heating source and lid. LRFs are used to reheat or maintain steel tapped from a steel

    making furnace to a precise temperature and or refine it to exact chemical specifications.

    Refining is performed by adding chemicals to remove impurities, adding ingredients which

    enhance strength, and homogenizing the molten steel to achieve uniform characteristics.

    LRFs provide an ideal reining station with precise temperature control, stirring action for

    homogeneity, and ports for alloy addition and slag removal. Reheating steel in a ladle

    refining furnace is typically accomplished by electric arc heating.
