    摘要: A method of production of Zinc dust, which includes melting Zinc products in a melting furnace on a semi-continuous basis, transferring at least a part of the molten Zinc products to a vaporizing furnace, vaporizing the molten Zinc in the vaporizing furnace into Zinc vapour on a substantially continuous basis, transferring Zinc vapour from the vaporizing furnace to a condenser, and condensing the Zinc vapour to form Zinc dust which includes circulating the zinc vapour in the condenser and through a cyclone cooler. A zinc dust production plant includes a vertical crucible melting furnace (12), a vertical crucible vaporizing furnace (14) and a condenser (18) in fluid communication with the vaporizing furnace, with a heat exchanger in the form of a vapour circulation system (58).

    摘要: An apparatus for condensing metal vapors has at least one inlet conduit that is cooled to cause a portion of the metal vapor to condense to liquid. The apparatus also has a holding tank that is connected to the inlet conduit that collects condensed liquid metal. The apparatus also has at least one outlet conduit connected to the holding tank that is cooled to cause a portion of the remaining metal vapor to condense to solid metal. The apparatus also has at least one heater that heats the at least one outlet conduit to cause the solid metal to melt to liquid metal and subsequently flow in to the holding tank. The apparatus also has at least one sealing mechanism located at a distal end of the at least one outlet conduit for preventing metal vapor and carrier gas from exiting the outlet conduit during heating of the outlet conduit.

    摘要: In a purification apparatus comprising a vertical stack of a feed heating zone having the feed crucible 1, a condensation zone having a plurality of condensation vapor passage plates 5, a solidification zone having a solidification crucible 2 and an entrapment/solidification zone having a plurality of entrapment/solidification vapor passage plates 7, a feed metal, preferably with a purity of at least 3N, is charged into the feed crucible 1 in a vacuum atmosphere, preferably at no more than 13 Pa (10 -1 Torr), with the feed crucible 1 and the condensation vapor passage plates 5 being heated at controlled temperatures to generate the vapor of the metal in the feed heating zone; part of the metal vapor is condensed to form a molten condensate which is returned into the feed crucible 1, thereby ; the process solidifying the high-purity metal in the solidification zone; the solidified metal has a purity of at least 6N and contains Cl, F and S in a respective amount of no more than 0.1 ppm with a total impurity content of no more than 1 ppm.
