Emergency plan for electrode accident of calcium carbide furnace

 Electrode hard break 1. Phenomenon 1. The current suddenly drops and then rises, but it will not rise to the original position. 2. The temperature of furnace gas rises suddenly. 3. The electric arc sound produced by the electric furnace is abnormal.

2、 Reason

1. Improper storage of electrode paste leads to high ash content and poor adhesion.

2. The electrode cooling rate is high during shutdown.

3. The electrode paste above the conductive contact element is overheated, and solids precipitate, resulting in electrical stratification.

4. As the electrode enters the charge part with a slight taper, when the electrode is lowered, the electrode, the hard shell and the charge produce a great mechanical force.

5. After a long power failure, the load increases.

3、 Treatment method

1. Power off immediately.

2. The broken end is small, that is, the broken electrode is below the material level, the length of the residual electrode can work, and the broken end can be pressed into the furnace to continue power transmission.

3. The broken end of the electrode is large, that is, the broken electrode is above the material level, and the working end cannot work. The broken end must be taken out after blasting with explosives. Properly press and release the electrode, and try to increase the working end of the electrode by improving the pressure release rate rather than long-distance pressure release.

4. The broken electrode is roasted with single-phase electrode.

4、 Preventive measures

1. Control the quality of electrode paste into the factory to ensure that the quality of electrode paste meets the requirements; Keep the electrode paste properly to prevent dust from entering.

2. Try to avoid continuous furnace shutdown for more than 3 hours to prevent electrode oxidation.

3. Keep the height of the electrode paste 4.5m above the contact element, and let the electrode paste roast continuously to prevent overheating.

4. During the shutdown period, the electrode should be moved up and down in time to prevent the electrode from bonding with the furnace charge; Try to avoid raising the electrode by a large margin, prevent the falling position of the electrode from being blocked by material collapse, and increase the resistance of electric 1 to fall.

5. After long-term power failure, the load shall be increased slowly, and the start-up operation procedures shall be strictly implemented.

6. Pay attention to the difference between it and material collapse to prevent misjudgment. 2. Electrode soft break 1. Phenomenon 1. The current suddenly rises, and the voltage between electrode and furnace bottom drops to "0". 2. The outlet temperature of furnace gas and H2 content increase. 3. The electrode cylinder emits a lot of black smoke. 4. The furnace gas pressure suddenly increases and the explosion-proof hole is opened.

Study on impurities in high purity flake graphite

Image
 　　For the analysis of trace impurities in high-purity flake graphite, the sample is usually pre ashed or wet digested to remove carbon, the ash is dissolved with acid, and then the impurity content in the solution is determined. The ashing method does not need to use ultra pure acid to dissolve the ash, thus avoiding the risk of introducing the elements to be measured, so it is used more. It is also very difficult to detect the ash content of high-purity flake graphite, because the enriched ash needs to be burned at high temperature, and it is difficult to separate the ash from the sample boat at high temperature, which makes it impossible to accurately determine the composition and content of impurities. 　　The existing methods all take advantage of the characteristic that the platinum crucible does not react with acid, use the platinum crucible to burn the high-purity flake graphite to enrich ash, and then directly heat the sample in the crucible with acid to dissolve th

General technical index requirements for electrode paste

Image
 Electrode occupies an important position in submerged arc furnace. The working conditions of the electrode are bad, the current passing through is high, the temperature difference between the two ends is large, and the production is affected by the impact of mechanical, electrical and charge collapse... Mechanical strength, higher electrical resistivity, better thermal shock resistance, oxidation resistance and smaller thermal expansion coefficient. Generally speaking, the quality of electrode paste is controlled by the following five indicators: 1. Ash: Ash is the residue of electrode paste when it is burnt to constant weight at 850℃-870℃. It belongs to inorganic minerals. It has high ash resistivity, poor strength, high power consumption, and large electrode consumption. In the event of a hard breaking accident, the ash content is a very important indicator, and the lower the better. 2. Volatile matter: Volatile matter refers to the mass loss of electrode paste under the condition o

Performance characteristics of anthracite electrode paste

 Anthracite is the main raw material of electrode paste. The performance of anthracite is related to the performance of electrode paste. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and discuss the performance of anthracite to ensure the quality of electrode paste. Anthracite coal in China is mainly distributed in Shanxi, Ningxia and Guizhou. Shanxi is the origin of anthracite, which is mainly produced in Yangquan and Jincheng. Anthracite is an indispensable raw material for carbon industry. It is mainly used in semi graphite cathode carbon block, electric furnace carbon block, blast furnace carbon block, carbon electrode and various pastes. Studying and discussing various properties of anthracite is very beneficial to improve the quality of carbon products.
