The Dehumidifying System for the Blast Furnace Air

Abstract

The dehumidifying system for the blast furnace air is going to adopt at a number of furnaces in Japan where the air humidity changes fairly with the seasons.
The type of the system has emplayed the principles of condensation or dehydration, or a combination of the two. It is able to condition the blast humidity in constant and low level with the system.
The advantage of this blast conditioning are to operate stably and to reduce the coke ration for the blast furnace practice.
This report classified the contents of these systems, and analized the effect of these system on the operation of the blast furnace.
