Change of phase composition and valuable elements in V-Ti pellet during softening-melting and dripping process
The change of phase composition and valuable elements in the process of softening-melting and dripping of acidic V-Ti pellet of Pangang were quantitatively studied by simulating the smelting at-mosphere in blast furnace.The results show that Ti and V gradually migrated from titanohematite and ilmenite to slag phase during the softening-melting and dripping process of V-Ti pellet.TiO2 could not only be reduced to Ti into metal iron,but also generate a large amount of titanium carbonitride.In the dripping test,the yield of V in metallic iron was 36.03%,which was much higher than 3.13%of Ti and 17.20%of Si.The absorbing S from coke by slag and metallic iron and the desulfurization reaction between them were carried out simultaneously,and the ratio of S in metallic iron decreased from 72.84%after softening-melting test to 50%after dripping test.Pyroxene and anosovite were more than 80%in the flooding slag of softening-melting test,and more than 70%of V and Ti in this slag were dis-tributed in anosovite.While in residual slag of softening-melting test,pyroxene decreased obviously,olivine and spinel increased obviously,and V and Ti increased obviously in spinel.During the dripping test,TiO2 was gradually reduced until the sum of TiC and TiN mass fraction exceeded 20%,so the slag was gradually transformed from high titanium-type slag with TiO2 mass fraction over 30%to low titani-um-type slag with TiO2 mass fraction less than 10%,and anosovie and its V and Ti in the residual slag were significantly reduced,while olivine and its distribution of V and Ti were increased.
