Countermeasures for Prevention of Air Leakage at Sintering Machine and Their Effects

Nobuhiro Takashima, Hiroyasu Takahashi, Minoru Sugawara, Kunihiro Tanaka, Hirokazu Komatsu
Synopsis :
Countermeasures for prevention of air leakage at the sintering machine were executed in both equipment and operation in Chiba No.4 Sintering Plant. For example, improvement were made, on the equipment side, by attaching a new type seal between air seal bar and slide bed and, on the operation side, by switching over to high-FeO sinter operation to raise the temperature of the exhaust gas at the discharge end. As a result, great advantages were obtained not only in the costs reduced of electric power and furnace fuel but also in an increase in productivity without increasing the capacity of the main blower. In addition, a useful means of finding out the air leakage volume was investigated to evaluate the effects of counter-measures for prevention of air leakage.
