Copper smelting furnace and furnace lining materials
The smelting temperature of non-ferrous metals is lower than that of iron smelting. However, non-ferrous metal oxides such as Cu2O, NiO, ZrO, PbO and SnO2 are highly alkaline in the high-temperature molten state. In addition, matte, yellow slag (arsenic antimony sulfide compounds) and slag are fluid and permeable, so they corrode the furnace lining materials extremely severely. In particular, the corrosion of the night surface and slag line is more serious, so the refractory materials used need to be specially selected. The slag obtained during copper smelting contains a large amount of iron oxide, and sometimes there are particularly corrosive components such as soda slag. Aluminum silicon carbide castables are used for casting chutes.
Nickel smelting blast furnaces use rectangular water-cooled jacket furnaces and round iron shell furnaces. Aluminum silicon carbide castables are used for casting chutes.
The operation of the lead-zinc electric furnace is different from that of the blast furnace. It is mainly based on the mutual reaction method as described above. Soda ash is loaded into the furnace as a flux or desulfurizer, so two liquid phases, crude lead and soda slag, are generated in the furnace. Soda slag is a special product in non-ferrous metal smelting. It is strongly alkaline and has strong corrosiveness to bricks. Aluminum silicon carbide castables are used to cast the chute.
Product Features
