| Summary: | Sinter ore quality directly affects the stability of blast furnace production. In terms of both physical and chemical properties, the main indicators of sinter quality are the TFe content, alkalinity, and drum index. By analyzing the massive historical data on the sinter production of a steel company, this study proposes a sinter quality prediction system based on Granger causality analysis and a stacking integration algorithm. First, based on real historical data of sintering production in steel enterprises (including coal gas pressure, ignition temperature, combustion air pressure, etc.), data preprocessing of raw data was carried out using a combination of feature engineering and the sintering process. Second, Pearson correlation analysis, Spearman correlation analysis, and Granger causality analysis were used to screen out the characteristic parameters with a strong influence on the target variable of sinter quality (drum Index, TFe, alkalinity). Third, a prediction model for sinter quality parameters was developed using a stacking integration algorithm pair for training. Finally, a program development tool was used to realize the establishment and online operation of a sinter ore quality prediction system. The test results showed that the predicted goodness of fit of the model for the TFe content, alkalinity (R), and drum index were 0.942, 0.958, and 0.987, respectively, and the model calculation time met the actual production requirements. By establishing a suitable model and running the program online, the real-time prediction of the main indicators of sinter quality was realized to guide production promptly.
