Sintering of electrode paste in submerged arc furnace of manganese-silicon alloy

The electrode is the only channel for the electric furnace to input electric energy, and it can also be said to be the heart of the electric furnace. Therefore, making the electrode have good working conditions is the key to the successful opening of the furnace. Large-scale submerged arc furnaces generally use self-baking electrodes. Self-baking electrodes use anthracite, pitch, etc. as raw materials to make electrode paste at a certain temperature, and then put the electrode paste into the installed electrode shell and then sinter and coke. . Therefore, to make a reasonable oven system, it is necessary to understand the sintering characteristics of the electrode paste. Sintering process of Rongxin carbon electrode paste self-baking electrode The self-baking electrode sintering process is a process in which the binder decomposes and gradually discharges volatiles as the temperature increases. The sintering of the electrode can be roughly divided into three stages. The first stage: the temperature rises from outdoor air temperature to 200°, and the electrode paste melts from lumps to all liquid; the second stage: the temperature rises from 200° to 600°, during which all the binders in the electrode paste begin to decompose and gas The volatile matter is discharged, especially at about 400°. The electrode paste gradually changes from a plastic state to a solid state; the third stage: the temperature rises from 600° to 800°, and a small amount of volatile matter continues to be discharged. After a certain period of time, The electrode sintering is over. The volatiles of Rongxin Carbon Electrode Paste are discharged from two locations: as the binder is thermally decomposed, the volatiles are discharged, the volume expands and contracts, and the volatiles are discharged along the gap between the electrode and the electrode shell; vaporization The components with lower temperature escape from the upper mouth of the electrode shell.

Matters needing attention when filling electrode paste

Image
 The following points should be paid attention to when installing the electrode paste airtight paste: 1. Do not allow debris to enter the electrode 2. Proper paste height 3. Work harder 4. Appropriate temperature 5. Prevent overhang Before filling, the electrode paste should be broken, generally broken into small pieces of 80~100mm, so that the electrode paste block can pass between the two ribs smoothly. If the particle size is too large, the electrode paste suspension failure is likely to occur; if the particle size is too small, it is easy to cause the phenomenon of spraying. Use a forklift truck or special tools to transport the electrode paste to the calcium carbide furnace, and use an electric hoist to hoist the electrode paste into the electrode bucket. Pay attention to the safety of hoisting during loading. When installing electrode paste, be careful not to scatter the electrode paste on the equipment outside the electrode barrel, so as to avoid accidents of electric fire. ...

The installation of cathode carbon block 1

Image
 　　The cathode carbon block and cathode steel bar are closely combined into one process. Cathode carbon block is an important part of aluminum reduction cell, which is directly used as cathode lining and conductive material. The cathode circuit of aluminum reduction cell is formed by connecting cathode steel bar and cathode bus. The assembly process of cathode carbon block and cathode steel bar should reduce the contact resistance between them as much as possible. 　　There are three ways to assemble cathode carbon block and cathode steel bar( 1) Cast iron casting method. The gap between them is cast with molten phosphorus pig iron, which is condensed to form a whole( 2) In the carbon paste tamping method, the gap on both sides of the steel rod is filled with cathode paste called steel rod paste, and tamped and compacted with pneumatic tools( 3) Bonding method. The cathode carbon block and steel bar are bonded together with carbon glue or adhesive. Graphite or metal pow...

Storage and management of electrode paste

Image
 As the self-baking electrode of submerged electric furnace, electrode paste has been widely used in the smelting of various products of submerged electric furnace. Although the cost of electrode paste in the production of calcium carbide, ferroalloy and other products is relatively low, the quality of the electrode paste and the firing of the electrode directly affect the stability of the operation of the submerged electric furnace. Due to the various types of submerged electric furnaces, the different furnace conditions, and the increasing capacity of electric furnaces, when the quality index of the electrode paste meets the requirements, the roasting quality plays a decisive factor, which requires us to focus on calcium carbide, ferroalloys, etc. The actual production of the product starts with the management of the electrode paste, strictly implements the operating procedures, regularly and quantitatively lowering the electrodes, and maintains the normal and stable operating pa...
