    摘要: A pyro-metallurgical process for producing at least one non-ferrous metal or a compound thereof, wherein said metal is selected from the group consisting of arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), silver (Ag), tin (Sn), nickel (Ni), and zinc (Zn), and wherein at least one raw material is fed into a rotary kiln, wherein said at least one raw material comprises at least said metal, and wherein said raw material is heated to produce a volatized material, in which the non-ferrous metal or compound thereof is produced from the volatized material, in which process a magnesium-based additive, is additionally fed in the rotary kiln in an amount of between 0.5 wt. % and 9.5 wt. % relative to the total weight of said raw materials, which magnesium-based additive is heated together with said raw material to produce at least the volatized material and a solid product, thereby counteracting ring formation in the rotary kiln.

    摘要: A slag conditioning agent for steel desulfurization is shown which is made by a process in which a dried slag material obtained from a secondary steelmaking process is mixed with quicklime particles. The quicklime particles react with moisture in the slag material to dry the slag material and produce a blend of slag material, hydrated lime and any unreacted quicklime. The blend is then sieved to separate out the hydrated lime. The retained dried fraction after sieving is then mixed with an Al2O3 mass fraction from which the slag conditioning agent can be collected. The slag conditioning agent has an equivalent mass ratio which is between 0.55 and 1.5.

    摘要: A pyro-metallurgical process for producing a non-ferrous metal or a compound thereof, wherein a metal raw material is fed into a rotary kiln, the metal being one of arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), silver (Ag), tin (Sn), nickel (Ni), or zinc (Zn). The raw material is heated to produce a volatized material, in which the non-ferrous metal or compound thereof is produced from the volatized material. A magnesium-based additive is additionally fed to the rotary kiln in an amount of between 0.5 wt. % and 9.5 wt. % relative to the total weight of the raw material. The magnesium-based additive is heated together with the raw material to produce the volatized material and a solid product while also counteracting ring formation in the rotary kiln.
