Function of refractory ball:

Refractory balls are mainly used in hot blast furnaces in the steel industry. In the regenerator of the hot blast stove, refractory balls and checkered bricks are the main masonry. In addition to hot blast stoves, refractory balls are also used in industrial furnaces such as heating furnaces.

The main function of the refractory ball is three points, the distribution is: 1. Distribute the gas evenly, 2. Support the refractory ball with a large diameter on the outside and a small diameter on the inside, which can better distribute the synthesis gas and make the radial bed of the synthesis tower. The layer temperature is more uniform. 3. Reduce the impact of the flow on the catalyst and disperse the airflow.

Regenerative refractory ball, also known as spherical regenerator, has the advantages of good thermal shock stability, high thermal storage strength, easy cleaning, and reusability. Selection of regenerative ball combustion system suitable for gas and non-body fuel industrial furnaces.

In general, refractory balls are especially suitable for high and low temperature shift furnaces, reformers, hydroconverters, desulfurization tanks and methanation furnaces in the production of fertilizer plants, which play the role of dispersing gas and liquid, supporting, covering and protecting catalysts.
