Abstract: A molten metal purification device for purifying molten metal flowing through a flow body having a flow path formed by a pair of opposed side walls and a bottom wall. The device includes internal and external members provided inside and outside the flow body, respectively. The internal member includes an electrode body provided inside the path made of a conductive member and has a pair of opposed electrodes provided in the path where current flows across the electrodes through the molten metal and a non-conductive filter. The external member is configured as a magnetic field device having an upper surface side magnetized to an N or S pole and disposed below the flow body. Lines of magnetic force coming out from the N pole or entering the S pole intersect with the current to generate Lorentz force for driving the molten metal along a flowing direction in the path.

Abstract: By setting an electric resistance of a trough to a value larger than an electric resistance of a molten metal stored in a storage space, in a non-driving state, a current is caused to flow along a first current path from one side wall of the pair of side walls to another side wall through the bottom wall, and in a driving state, a current is caused to flow through a second current path from the one side wall through a middle part of the first current path and bypass to the molten metal, and return to the first current path, and in the driving state, in the molten metal, causing the magnetic force lines running vertically and the current running horizontally to cross each other to generate a Lorentz force, and by the Lorentz force, driving and carrying the molten metal in the trough.

Abstract: A shredder dust electrostatic separation apparatus separates and recovers various kinds of crushed pieces included in shredder dust by the use of electrostatic force. The apparatus includes a rotating drum made of a conductive material, which receives supplied shredder dust, a positive or negative voltage being applied thereon. The apparatus further includes a discharge wire strung along the sideline of the rotating drum. A negative or positive voltage is applied to the discharge wire to cause a discharge in a space between the discharge wire and the rotating drum. The various kinds of crushed pieces included in the shredder dust are charged by the discharge, the polarity of the crushed pieces being opposite to that of the rotating drum. The charged crushed pieces are attracted to the rotating drum. The charges of the crushed pieces are allowed to move to the rotating drum in accordance with the conductivities of the crushed pieces. Accordingly, there are differences in attraction force of the crushed pieces. The crushed pieces are appropriately separated and recovered based on such differences in attraction force.
