摘要:
Zinc is recovered by melting in a furnace a mass containing oxides of zinc and iron, a slag-forming flux material and a carbonaceous material, the content of the carbonaceous material being selected to avoid excessive foaming. The zinc vapour produced is condensed in a condensor (10) having an impeller (20) and a cooling circuit (30).
摘要:
Method for the production of fused silica in which a particulate silica feedstock material is passed from a silica feed tube through or near a plasma arc coupling zone in which at least two plasma arcs of opposite polarity arc coupled, thereby raising the temperature of the feedstock material and collecting the material as fused silica.
摘要:
A process for the recovery of gold from a refractory or non-refractory gold containing concentrate which contains sulphide minerals, which process comprises the steps of:- i) heating the gold containing concentrate to a temperature of above 1150°C in order to thermally decompose the sulphide minerals contained therein, and ii) subjecting the thermal decomposition product obtained from step (i) to reaction with oxygen in a plasma arc furnace maintained at a temperature of above 1150°C.
摘要:
On récupère du zinc en faisant fondre dans un four un mélange contenant des oxydes de zinc et de fer, un matériau fondant formant des scories, et un matériau carboné dont la teneur est choisie de manière à éviter un moussage excessif. La vapeur de zinc produite est condensée dans un condenseur (10) comportant un rotor (20) et un circuit de refroidissement (30).
摘要:
A method of melting materials at power densities in excess of 25 KW/ft² of area within the metal shell (11) of a melting vessel (10) which method comprises continuously feeding (13) the material to be melted to a plasma arc furnace, melting the said feedstock material using at least two transferred arc plasma electrodes (15,16) whilst rotating at least the portion of the furnace containing the material to be melted and continuously discharging the molten material through the rotating bottom (17) of the furnace. Apparatus for melting materials under power densities of greater than 25 KW/ft² is also disclosed.

摘要:
An arc is drawn between a movable electrode (E) (preferably graphite), and a fixed electrode (7) in a furnace when smelting metal oxides using a plasma. Shielding gas, e.g. N, is introduced into plenum (P) about the movable electrode (E) to prevent metal vapour from settling on the inner lining (3; 9) of the furnace (1). The movable electrode (E) may be connected to a mast (30) on the furnace roof (4) to align that electrode (E) in its path through a hole (10) in the roof (4) into the furnace chamber (C).
