Optimization Research of the Comprehensive Coke Rate of Blast Furnace Based on the Operational Characteristic of Auxiliary Materials
With the in-depth study on the blast furnace iron-making process and the operational characteristic of auxiliary materials in iron-making process, the comprehensive coke rate’s main influencing factors based on the operation characteristics of auxiliary materials were found. Then, a BP neural network model was used to simulate the mathematic mapping relationship between comprehensive coke rate and main influencing factors. Based on the established BP neural network model, through setting the comprehensive coke rate lowest as the goal and using the actual production data of a iron &steel company’s 6# blast furnace ,a genetic algorithm method is adopted to find the best optimal combination among the main influencing factors. The results show that after optimization calculation the comprehensive coke rate could be reduced about 35.85kg. A new perspective and a scientific method are proposed to realize the target of energy conservation and emission reduction in ironmaking process in this paper.
