Description
Hydrous taphole clay mixture can be used as shaped refractories for blast furnace tap holes; this dataset includes major raw materials, auxiliary materials, and energy consumed during production, but infrastructure such as production equipment manufacturing and plant construction is not included within the system boundary; the life cycle inventory is compiled from data of multiple sources; the manufacturing process of hydrous taphole clay mixture includes batching and mixing, shaping, curing, and other procedures.
Activity Description
The production process of wet gunning mix includes batching and mixing, forming, curing and other processes.
Process Description
Hydraulic gunning paste can be used for blast furnace tap holes. It is mainly composed of metallic titanium, titanium dioxide, 98% silicon carbide, and ferrosilicon nitride. It features excellent resistance to erosion and abrasion, ease of opening, and long iron tapping duration. It can effectively reduce the temperature of the furnace hearth sidewall in the tap hole area.
