Abstract
This article analyses the possibility of using hydrogen as fuel in furnaces used in the metallurgical industry. The research was conducted for a selected continuous furnace. For this purpose, based on actual measurements, a heat balance of the furnace was prepared to determine its energy indicators. These values were used to verify the developed numerical model in IPSEpro 7.0 software. Numerical calculations were performed for three variants: pure natural gas; 30% hydrogen, 70% natural gas; and 100% hydrogen. The determined values of gas and combustion air streams allowed for achieving the assumed charge temperature in the heating technology. Calculations of the impact of the excess combustion air ratio on process parameters were also carried out. It was found that no changes are required in the exhaust gas removal system, but verification of the fan supplying air to cool the exhaust gases before the recuperator is necessary. The amount of hydrogen required to fuel the continuous furnace also increases significantly (nearly threefold), which may also affect operating costs. At the same time, the emission of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is completely reduced, which may be an important criterion when considering modernization options for heating furnaces in the metallurgical industry.
