Methods And Apparatus For Reducing Corrosion In Refractory Linings

View page
US Patent:
47055634, Nov 10, 1987
Filed:
Oct 23, 1986
Appl. No.:
6/922363
Inventors:
Roger B. Poeppel - Glen Ellyn IL
Sherman Greenberg - Oak Lawn IL
Dwight R. Diercks - Plainfield IL
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the United States
Department of Energy - Washington DC
International Classification:
C22B 900
US Classification:
75 95
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for reducing corrosion in a refractory lining of a liquid-containing vessel used in direct steelmaking processes. The vessel operates at between about 1600. degree. C. and about 1800. degree. C. and an oxygen partial pressure of about 10. sup. -12 atmospheres, creating slag which is rich in FeO. The refractory lining includes a significant level of chromium oxide (Cr. sub. 2 O. sub. 3), and has small interconnected pores which may be filled with a gas mixture having a higher total pressure and oxygen partial pressure than the total pressure and oxygen partial pressure associted with the liquid against the lining of the vessel. The gas mixture is forced through the pores of the lining so that the pores are continuously filled with the mixture. In this manner, the gas mixture creates a blanket which increases the oxygen partial pressure at the lining enough to maintain the chromium in the lining in a selected valence state in which the chromium has decreased solubility in the FeO slag, thereby reducing corrosion by the FeO and increasing the useful life of the refractory lining.
