What is the function of the pre-storage section in a dry quenching furnace?
Thread Content
The upper pre-storage chamber of the dry quenching furnace serves to store red coke, which helps to eliminate unevenness in the coke at the furnace tip and thus improves the quality of the coke. Are there any other functions?
Does it play a role in regulating production of coke?
In addition to storing red coke in order to eliminate unevenness in the coke at the furnace tip, the pre-storage section of the dry quenching furnace also serves to buffer and balance production. In blast furnace operations, the supply of coke can fluctuate due to various factors such as production line failures or maintenance activities. The storage section can help mitigate the effects of this unstable supply to some extent, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the dry quenching process. Furthermore, the pre-storage zone also helps to pre-heat the unextinguished coke, which can reduce the energy consumption required during the subsequent dry quenching process. .
