Lead Oxide Production in Barton Reactor-Effect of Increased Air Humidity on Lead Oxide Production Parameters.

The paper presents tests of lead oxidation in a Barton reactor with a capacity of 1200 kg PbO/h, divided into two series. The first series was carried out in conditions of high humidity of the air supplied to the reactor (59-61%), and the second series in conditions of low humidity (19-21%). The study used lead of various purity levels, the main impurities of which were bismuth and silver.

High-Performance Method of Recovery of Metals from EAF Dust-Processing without Solid Waste.

A highly effective method of the processing of steelmaking dust in an arc-resistant furnace has been presented. The aim of the research was to investigate the possibility of processing steelmaking dust in terms of waste minimization and selective recovery of valuable components. For this purpose, an electric arc resistance furnace was used.
