Resumo
The development of the steel industry has increased energy demand, exerting strong influence on the use of energy resources. The utilization energetic is extremely important because it enables the steel industry greatly reduce their costs. In the steelmaking process, they are produced four by-products with high capacity for energy generation. The produced by-products are directed to thermoelectric plants and used as fuel for the generation of electricity. In this work it proposed a modeling for the prediction of the equilibrium concentration of the chemical species present in the furnace of a steel boiler installed in a thermoelectric plant. The employed technique consists of the minimization of the Gibbs energy of the reaction medium present in the furnace of steel boiler equipment on the thermoelectric central plant. The optimization problem was proposed, by defining thus the objective function and restrictions to be resolved employing the commercial software Matlab® . The solution of the optimization problem resultant provides the description of composition output of the exhaust gases. This work it was possible to evaluate the impact of changes in air feed flow rate and operating temperature of the composition of the exhaust gases. The applied methodology is able to reproduce satisfactorily the information provided by industry and obtained in the literature, that describe the combustion of the byproducts on the steel industry by-products.
