Summary of Test Method3.1 A sample of dried coke of designated origin and size is reacted with CO2 gas in a retort at a specified elevated temperaturefor a specified length o

9、f time. Two indices, coke reactivity index (CRI) and coke strength after reaction (CSR), are determinedusing the reacted coke residue.The mass or weight loss after reaction determines the CRI.The mass or weight retained after sievingthe tumbled reacted coke in a designated number of revolutions over

10、 a designated turning rate determines the CSR.4. Significance and Use4.1 When coke lumps descend in the blast furnace, they are subjected to reaction with countercurrent CO2 and to abrasion asthey rub together and against the walls of the furnace. These concurrent processes physically weaken and che

11、mically react withthe coke lumps, producing an excess of fines that can decrease burden permeability and result in increased coke rates and lost hotmetal production. This test method is designed to measure indirectly this behavior of coke in the blast furnace.1 This test method is under the jurisdic

Procedure9.1 From each test coke sample prepared in accordance with Section 78, randomly hand pick and accurately weigh to the nearest0.1 g 0.0

Record thenumber of pieces selected from each test sample.9.2 Before the reaction vessel is put into the electric furnace, place the weighed sample in the reaction vessel in a manner asto ensure that th

42、e thermocouple sits vertically in the center of the coke bed with its tip 50 mm 2 in. from the bottom of the cokebed. A centering guide normally fastened to the center of the lid is used to ensure this positioning of the thermocouple tip.NOTE 5Variations in coke density may result in different total

43、 coke bed heights in the reaction vessel. Therefore, in situations where 50 mm 2 in.is not the center of the coke bed, adjust the thermocouple tip accordingly.9.3 Purge the reaction vessel for 5 min at 5 L/min to 10 L/min of N2 before loading the vessel into the furnace. Check for leaksin the assemb

Once thesampl

45、e temperature of 11001100 C 6 5C5 C is reached, soak the sample for 10 min in N2 gas for a total heat up time of 40min. Then heat the samples for 120 min in an atmosphere of CO2 gas, with a flow rate of 5.0 L/min61.0 % (Note 6). The furnacetemperature may be increased just prior to the introduction

46、of the CO2 gas in order to compensate for a temperature decrease asa result of the endothermic reaction. The temperature of 1100 C 6 5 C shall be regained within 10 minutes of the introductionof the CO2 gas. Maintain the coke bed temperatures at 1100C1100 C 6 5C5 C during the test. (Fig. 3)9.6 After

47、 exactly 120-min120 min exposure to CO2 gas, switch back to the N2 purge gas at 5 L/min to 10 L/min for 5 min topurge the reactor vessel of CO2. Subsequently, remove the reaction vessel from the furnace, and allow the sample temperature tocool to 100C.100 C.9.7 After cooling, remove the coke sample

48、completely from the reaction vessel and vessel. Use a magnet to remove any metalferrous flakes or scale from the sample and then weigh the coke to the nearest 0.1 g 0.0002 lbs.lb.9.8 Transfer the reacted coke to the strength after reaction tester and tumble for 600 revolutions in 30 min at 20 r/min6

49、1 r/min.9.9 After the 600 revolutions, remove all coke from the drum. Sieve the coke using a 9.5-mm 9.5 mm 38-in. in. sieve. Weighthe coke remaining on the 9.5-mm 9.5 mm 38-in. in. sieve for calculation of CSR. Weigh the coke passing the 9.5-mm 9.5 mm38-in. in. sieve for checking material losses during tumbling.NOTE 6Since carbon monoxide (CO) is generated during the coke reactivity test, the test apparatus should
