PROCESS FOR OBTAINING A RAPID MIXING OF LIQUID METALS AND SLAG IN ORDER TO ACCELERATE SOME REACTIONS BETWEEN THE TWO PHASES

摘要

A process for emulsifying the constituents of a molten bath found in metallurgical refining applications. Immiscible constituents are delivered to a stationary reactor; the reactor is rotated about the vertical axis thereof; rotation is ceased for less than thirty seconds; and rotation of the reactor about the vertical axis occurs in the opposite direction. Gases are blown axially at and over the surface of the molten bath to provide a particular gaseous atmosphere.
