Abstract

Kawasaki Steel Corporation developed a new ignition apparatus, the "Line Burner" for the sintering process by radically changing the ignition method at Chiba Works,
The Line Burner was applied to Chiba sintering plant's No.3 DL (203m2) and No.4 DL (210m2) in August, 1983.
This new ignition apparatus completely changed the conventional image of the ignition furnace.It's features are as follows.
(1) Direct burning is possible through the Line Burner's multi-hole nozzle.It ensures more efficient burning condition.The height and inclination of the burner can be easily adjusted with this ignition system as changes occur in the operation.
(2) The flame is very uniform in the width direction and the desired shorter flame can be obtained.The combustion chamber volume can be reduced from 27m3 to about 2m3.
The ignition energy consumption can be reduced to as low as 6 000-7 000kcal/t-s without any operational problems arising.
