    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for treatment of zinc-containing by-products and waste materials from primary and secondary production of nonferrous metals and especially zinc- and leadcontaining slags from the production of lead. The by-products and the waste materials are supplied to a gastight closed electric smelting furnace in which the materials are melted and subjected to a selective metallothermic reduction in order to reduce and volatilize zinc and other volatile metals. Elemental sulphur and/or sulphur compounds are added to the smelting furnace in an amount sufficient to form a sulphide phase containing one or more of the elements Cu, Ni, Pb, As, Bi, Sb and Ag. An inert slag phase and the sulphide phase are tapped from the furnace, and zinc and other volatile metals are recovered from the off-gas from the furnace by condensation.

    Abstract: The process feeds a mixture of scrap metal, chromite, flux materials, carbonaceous material and wood chips to a submerged arc furnace to make a base iron suitable for iron and steel purposes. The mixture contains about 1-60% chromite, about 1 to 20% flux materials, about 5 to 35% carbonaceous material, about 0-10% wood chips, all based on the weight of scrap in the mixture. By maintaining the charge in the furnace, good energy efficiencies are obtained.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for recovering zinc from zinc-containing materials, especially from zinc-containing materials recovered from waste gases in metallurgical smelting processes. Particulate zinc-containing materials are agglomerated together with a carbonaceous reduction material and optionally slag forming materials, and are supplied to a gas tight closed electrothermic smelting furnace containing a molten bath kept at a temperature between 1200.degree. and 1700.degree. C. in which the agglomerates are smelted and subjected to selective reduction and volatilization of zinc and other volatile metals. An inert slag phase and optionally a liquid metal phase are tapped from the smelting furnace, and zinc and other volatile metals are recovered from the waste gas from the smelting furnace by condensation. In order to prevent reoxidation of metallic zinc the particulate zinc-containing materials are agglomerated together with a carbonaceous binder which cracks at a temperature below 700.degree. C. and forms carbon black, and that the temperature in the gas atmosphere in the smelting furnace is kept above 1000.degree. C. in order to maintain a volume ratio between CO.sub.2 and CO in the gas atmosphere in the smelting furnaces below 0.3.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a means for continuous production of elongated carbon bodies having a constant or substantially constant cross-section where a casing filled with unbaked paste consisting of carbon and a carbon containing binder is continuously baked to a solid carbon body by heating by means of direct electric current. The first terminal of the direct current source is being slidably connected to the casing through a plurality of vertical ribs extending radially outwards from the casing, said ribs being made from a current conducting material, and the second terminal of the direct current source being connected to the baked part of the carbon body or to a bottom contact in a smelting furnace in which the carbon body is consumed. The casing containing the carbon containing paste is continuously or substantially continuously moved in axial direction by means of slipping- and holding means. The present invention thus relates to carbon bodies baked outside a smelting furnace and to carbon bodies which are produced in direct connection with the smelting furnace wherein the carbon bodies are consumed.

    Abstract: Continuously cast metal billets are continuously passed by a symmetric light source comprising a plurality of single light sources arranged in a circle or in another way such that the light falls substantially symmetrically on the part of the surface of the metal billet which is to be detected in such a way that the surface of the metal billet which faces the light source is illuminated except for pinholes. Reflected light from the surface of the billet is detected by a linescan camera arranged centrally in relation to the light source, which camera has a scanning direction normal to the direction of movement of the metal billet, whereby pinholes are detected by registration of reflected light intensity below a preset threshold value.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting flaws and surface defects in metallic workpieces, particularly in non-magnetic steel workpieces. The surface of the workpiece is heated by passing the workpiece in its longitudinal direction through an induction coil, scanning the surface of the workpiece with an infrared camera transversely across the surface of the moving workpiece immediately after induction heating and recording a streaked pattern temperature profile in which the streaked pattern repeats itself where there are flaws in the surface. It is used an induction coil with a current frequency which gives a penetration depth of the induced current in the workpiece which is greater than the depth of the flaws which are to be detected. The flaws and surface defects are detected by recording a lower surface temperature than the rest of the surface of the workpiece by scanning the temperature profile immediately after induction heating.
