METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PARTIALLY CARBONIZED COAL BRIQUETTES, APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING PARTIALLY CARBONIZED COAL BRIQUETTES, AND APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING MOLTEN IRON

摘要

Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for manufacturing molten iron. The apparatus for manufacturing molten iron according to the present invention includes: a multi-stage fluidization furnace for converting a fine iron ore into a fine direct reduced iron by reduction; at least one high temperature agglomerating apparatus for pressing the fine direct reduced iron to manufacture a high temperature agglomerate; at least one pulverizing apparatus for pulverizing the high temperature agglomerate to a predetermined particle size; a first transporting apparatus for transporting the pulverized high temperature agglomerate; and a melting furnace for melting the transported high temperature agglomerate by combusting a powder-type or agglomerate-type steam coal and supplying a reduced gas generated in the furnace to a fluidization reduction furnace. Further, at least one agglomerate storing bath for storing a portion of the pulverized high temperature agglomerate is further included. The molten iron can be stably and efficiently manufactured by applying the present invention.
