Abstract:
With metatitanic acid hydrolyzing from low concentration of industrial titanyl sulphate solution as raw material,the orthogonal mutual influences of the addition amount of salt treatment agents(zinc salt,potassium salt and phosphorus salt) and the highest calcination temperature were investigated by using four-factor quadric orthogonal regression test.The metatitanic acid was characterized by particle size measurement and XRD.The achromic abilities of the calcined samples were measured to establish effective regression model and forecast the quality of titanium dioxide pigment.The optimal conditions of salt treatment and calcination are 0.36% of ZnO,0.70% of K₂O and 0.20% of P₂O₅ with 850℃ of highest calcination temperature.The experimental results fit well with the predicted values.

2016, 37(2): 21-26. doi: 10.7513/j.issn.1004-7638.2016.02.004

Abstract(107) PDF(1)

Abstract:
The hydrolysis of titanyl sulfate solutions was investigated,mainly focusing on the influence of feed speed of titanium solution on hydrolysis rate,gray-turning point of solution,size of primary and secondary particles for hydrolysis.The results show that with decrease in feed rate the hydrolysis rate of titanium solution increases,since the dilution extent of initial titanyl sulfate solution is enhanced with longer duration by slow feed speed which results in more formed seed crystals.The gray-turning time for the solution is shortened with decrease of feed speed.The size of primary hydrolysis particles is affected by feed rate that a slower feed speed contributes to the formation of fine-uniform primary particles.The average particle size of hydrolysate from low-concentration of titanium solution is 1.69~1.78 μm.With decrease in feed speed,the size distribution of obtained hydrolysate becomes narrow,and the morphology of the hydrolysate gradually transforms from irregular-dense to spherical-loose particles.This research could provide guidance to further improvement for the production process of titanium solution hydrolysis.

Abstract(76) PDF(3)

Abstract:
Change rules of molten pool morphology and solidification structure of Ø980 mm pure titanium ingot during VAR process were studied by using ANSYS and μMatIc softwares.The simulation results show that the molten pool is very small with shallow U type at the arc starting stage,then gradually changes from U to V type.The depth and width of molten pool no longer change in the stable stage of smelting when the equilibrium between heat input and output in the crucible is attained.During the filling process,the molten pool gradually shrinks and disappears.The evolution of solidification structure is that fine crystal structure is formed from the liquid contacted with the crucible wall by rapid cooling,and a part of the fine crystals growing as arborization finally form into columnar crystals with a certain preferential orientation.In the center region of the ingot and the critical region of liquid-solid phase,nucleation and growth of crystals directly occur in the metal liquid,and the formed equiaxed crystals block the growth of columnar crystals coupled with transformation between equiaxed and columnar crystals.By anatomizing the industrial ingot,the simulation results of numerical model are with good accordance with the industrial tests.

Abstract:
Potassium metavanadate(KVO₃) was firstly prepared by solventing-out crystallization,and the proper acidity range for crystallization from high-vanadium solution was determined.The results show that KVO₃ owning purity more than 98% can be obtained with vanadium recovery rate more than 95%,under the conditions of 150 g/L vanadium concentration,7.6~8.5 solution pH,ethanol as precipitation agent with volume ratio of 1:1 to the vanadium solution,and stirring for 60 min.The recovery rate for crystallization is closely related to the volume ratio of precipitation agent,vanadium concentration of mother liquor and crystallization time.The chromium content in the obtained crystals increases with rise in vanadium concentration of mother liquor and is not affected by crystallization time.However,the silicon content in the crystals decreases with increase in crystallization time and not change with vanadium concentration in mother liquor.Moreover,the particle size of crystals can be controlled by addition amount of precipitation agent.

Abstract:
Vanadium precipitation wastewater was treated separately using supernatant of sodium thiosulfate solution and sodium metabisulfite,but COD of the wastewater reduced by the former was as high as 2 878 mg/L,far exceeding the emission standards.Wastewater with a lower COD and chromium-containing slag with low iron content can be obtained by sodium metabisulfite reduction,neutralization and precipitation for the vanadium precipitation wastewater.Industrial operating conditions for treatment of vanadium precipitation wastewater with sodium metabisulfite are proposed as follows:addition amount of sodium metabisulfite is 3.1~3.2 times as much as Cr⁶⁺ content in the wastewater,with 15~30 min of reduction time.Through ammonia removal for the wastewater after the treatment mentioned above,no hexavalent chromium is detected in the water discharged to the sewage treatment plant with 65 mg/L of average COD value,satisfying the emission limits of Liaoning province local standard "Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard"(DB21/1627-2008).Meanwhile,slag with low iron content(0.27%,calculated as Fe₂O₃) and high content of chromium(41.6%,calculated as Cr₂O₃) can be obtained.After roasting the chromium-containing slag,qualified chromium JCr95(Cr ≥ 95%) can be produced by outfurnace smelting.

Abstract(71) PDF(1)

Abstract:
The influence of different H₂ content on reduction process of burden in blast furnace was investigated.The chemical compositions of the reduced burden were determined.The results show that the Fe aggregates obviously with the increasing of the H₂ content in the reducing gas.The weight loss rate,the reduction rate and the metallization rate of the burden increase with the increasing of the H₂ content.Because the H₂ content was increased the indirect reduction was improved,so the degree of direct reduction was decreased effectively.Although the metallization rate also increases with the H₂ content,much higher H₂ content will cause the reduction of non-ferrous metal and thus higher energy consumption.So H₂ content in the reducing gas should be controlled within a proper range of~15%.

Abstract:
In order to explore the existence form and movement form of the gas in liquid metal under the condition of high pressure,a serial of water model experiments had been carried to obtain the effect of pressure and bottom flow rate on the shape,diameter,quantity of bubble and slag eye area.The experimental results indicate that compared with atmospherica pressure,when increasing bottom blowing flow rate,high pressure cause air bubbles generated tend to be much round,and the average bubble diameter decreases and the number of bubbles increases.When the bottom blowing flow rate is 4 L/h,the change of bubble diameter and shape is most remarkable.When at constant flow rate and bottom blowing position,with the increase of the pressure,the bubble shape gradually tend to round,air bubble diameter became smaller,the the number of bubble increase gradually, "slag eye" area gradually decreases.Under the condition of normal pressure and high pressure,when bottom blowing flow after excesses 5 L/h,the change of bubble diameter and shape is not obvious.When the bottom blowing flow rate is at 4 L/h and pressure is at 0.5 MPa,the change of average bubble diameter and shape is very small.This research result can provid reference for the development of high pressure metallurgy.
