“…The carbon content of shale gas and coke oven gas is about 75% and 23%, respectively, both lower than that of coke (usually 84~91%) [ 7 ]. In industry, there have been practical cases for blast furnaces to inject hydrogen–rich gas with CH 4 as the main component, a method widely used in North America, Russia, and other regions; for example, in 2015, 13 blast furnaces in North America (with a total output of 16.6 million THM) only injected natural gas, with an average injection volume of 83 kg/THM, and 12 blast furnaces simultaneously injected natural gas and pulverized coal [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ].…”

The iron and steel industry is a major CO2 emitter and an important subject for the implementation of carbon emission reduction goals and tasks. Due to the complex ore composition and low iron grade, vanadium−bearing titanomagnetite smelting in a blast furnace consumes more coke and emits more carbon than in an ordinary blast furnace. Injecting hydrogen−rich gas into blast furnace can not only partially replace coke, but also reduce the carbon emission. Based on the whole furnace and zonal energy and mass balance of blast furnace, the operation window of the blast furnace smelting vanadium−bearing titanomagnetite is established in this study on the premise that the thermal state of the blast furnace is basically unchanged (raceway adiabatic flame temperature and top gas temperature). The effects of different injection amounts of hydrogen−rich gases (shale gas, coke oven gas, and hydrogen) on raceway adiabatic flame temperature and top gas temperature, and the influence of blast temperature and preheating temperature of hydrogen−rich gases on operation window are calculated and analyzed. This study provides a certain theoretical reference for the follow−up practice of hydrogen−rich smelting of vanadium−bearing titanomagnetite in blast furnace.
