The functional capabilities, methodological foundations and information software of a modernized computer system for controlling the slag regime of blast furnace smelting, developed at the Institute of Ferrous Metallurgy on the basis of fundamental principles in the physicochemical and mathematical modeling of metallurgical melts and systems based on the concept of directional chemical bonding, are considered. The system provides a predictive calculation of the complex of technological properties of the final blast furnace slag: viscosity, melting points, enthalpy, and desorption capacity. Operational assessment of the slag regime using the Slag system as part of the process control system allows efficiently and up-to-date solving the problems of optimizing the slag regime and pig iron quality under unstable blast furnace conditions

The effects of B2O3and basicity (CaO/SiO2) on the viscous behavior and structure of medium titanium bearing blast furnace slag (MTBBFS) were investigated. High temperature viscosimeter was applied to measure the viscosities of CaO-SiO2-MgO-TiO2-Al2O3-B2O3slag system and X-ray diffraction (XRD), NBO/T ratio, and structure parameterQwere employed to analyze its network structure. The results showed that the viscosity decreased and break point temperature increased with increasing basicity to 1.20. However B2O3addition gave rise to a decrease in slag viscosity and break point temperature inspite of basicity. The more B2O3content leads to the more pronounced variation, especially for the slag with larger basicity. The conventional NBO/T formula was revised to predict the structure variation of relatively complicated medium Ti bearing slag based on the work of Yanhong Gao and other researchers. The increase of B2O3content in slag made parameterQturn fromQ2toQ1, suggesting that network structure became simpler. It was also noticed that the addition of B2O3could suppress the formation of perovskite.

The increasing usage of iron ores with high Al2O3 content significantly increases the amount of Al2O3 in blast furnace slag and consequently affects its performance. This work uses slag sampled on site to study the effects of changes in Al2O3 content on the fluidity of the CaO–SiO2–Al2O3–MgO–TiO2 slag system that is characterized by high Al2O3 and low TiO2 contents, as well as on the phase transition law during the cooling process. Slag viscosity exhibits a rising trend with an increase in Al2O3 content, and Al2O3 in the tested slag is alkaline. The viscous flow activation energy of molten slag rises from 157 kJ/mol to 172 kJ/mol with an increase in Al2O3 content, and the viscous flow units in the slag become large and complicated. When slag is cooled, the main precipitated phase is melilitite. Spinel, perovskite, and olivine are also observed. The crystallization amount of the melilitite phase decreases constantly with an increase in Al2O3 content.

The aim of the work is to develop physicochemical bases for predicting the technological properties of finite blast furnace slags, algorithmic and software for the subsystem for diagnosing the slag regime of blast furnace smelting. Based on experimental data on the properties of natural finite blast furnace slags, predictive models for calculating the viscosity of the final slag at a temperature of 1400-1550 °C were improved by including in the model structure an integrated slag melt index of the parameter Δe, which reflects the individual effect. Using the integral parameters of the slag melt characterizing the charge state of the system Δe and the structure of the slag ρ, an equation was developed to determine the viscosity of the slag at any temperature corresponding to the slag temperature at the cast iron outlet. As a result of analytical research, a predictive model for determining the enthalpy of slag depending on the integral parameters Δe and ρ and the temperature of the melt has been developed. It is shown that the viscosity characterizes the fluidity of the slag and provides desulfurizing and drainage properties. The calculation of the viscosity for the specified production of pig iron by the chemical composition of the slag is carried out according to the basic model of slag in a conditionally "homogeneous" state and taking into account its heterogeneity. This takes into account the presence of macroheterogeneous inclusions formed when using coke with low strength characteristics and due to incomplete combustion of pulverized coal fuel in the blast furnace. The improved models for evaluating the viscosity and enthalpy of the final slag are software implemented in the new version of the «Slag» system for operational control of the slag mode of blast furnaces in Ukraine. Rapid assessment of the slag mode using the «Slag» system as part of the DCS allows you to effectively and at a modern level solve the problems of optimizing the slag mode and the quality of pig iron in modern conditions of blast furnace smelting.

The results of the analysis of production data on the operation of blast furnace No. 1 (useful volume 1007 m3) of Ural Steel JSC for the period from 2013 to 2018 are presented. During this period, pellets from the Mikhailovsky GOK were used with varying degrees of fluxing: pellets of natural basicity in the ratio of CaO/SiO2 equal to 0.08 ± 0.02 units. (2013-2015) and partially fluxed pellets with a basicity of 0.52 ± 0.05 units. (from 2016 to the present). It has been established that the effectiveness of the use of pellets of various basicities is determined by their behavior in the blast furnace and depends on the proportion of pellets in the iron ore part of the charge. The gas-dynamic conditions of the smelting worsen with an increase in the proportion of pellets in the charge, which is accompanied by an increase in the specific pressure drop and forces the flow rate to be adjusted. There is an optimal level of specific pressure drop (53–55 Pa per 1 m3 of blast per minute) for the operating conditions of blast furnace No. 1 of Ural Steel, which ensures the optimum combination of the melting characteristics. Deviation from the optimal level of pressure drop leads to an increase in coke rate and a decrease in the degree of CO use, which is associated with gas distribution disturbance. Due to the increase in high-temperature properties, the replacement of non-fluxed pellets with off-fluxed pellets improves the gas-dynamic conditions in the lower part of the mine (in the cohesive zone). This leads to a decrease in the total pressure drop and specific pressure drop at a constant flow rate of the blast, and is a reserve for melting intensification. To minimize coke rate and maintain the high-performance operation of blast furnaces of Ural Steel JSC, it is necessary to work on 40–45 % of fluxed or 20–25 % acid pellets in a charge. An increase in pellet consumption while maintaining the efficiency of blast-furnace smelting is possible only if their high-temperature properties are improved. The improvement of these properties is possible as a result of optimizing the basicity and increasing the MgO content, which affects the structure and properties of the silicate bond. This work is carried out within a framework of the government order (No. FZRU-2020-0011) of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.
