PURPOSE:To recover Ar gas at a low cost, by collecting a high concentration Ar gas generated at Cr reduction desulfurization period and burning the above gas completely using O2 gas and then, recovering and using as blowing gas of high Cr steel blowing oxidation period. CONSTITUTION:O2, Ar, N2 gas stored in the holders 3, 4, 5, are mixed at a suitable ratio and mixed gas is blown into the molten steel 6 from the tuyere 2 at the oxidation period, on occasion of making high Cr steel by melting in the oxygen bottom-blown converter. On the other hand, only Ar gas 4 is blown from the inner pipe of the tuyere 2 and exhaust gas containing Ar, CO, is generated in the furnace 1 at the reduction.desulfurization period. Then, the above high Ar concentration exhaust gas is absorbed and recovered through the collecting duct 7 and on this occasion, O2 is blown from the plural O2 burners 8 provided on the upper part of the furnace opening duct 7 and CO component in the gas is converted to CO2 by complete combustion. Then, the above recovered exhaust gas is stored in the gas holder 12 after removing dust and is mainly reused for blowing gas of the third oxidation period as it is on and after the next heating, or is reused for blowing gas of the second oxidation period mixing O2 gas with the above gas. |
