VORRICHTUNG UND VERFAHREN ZUR ENTFERNUNG VON KRÄTZE MIT ERHÖHTER ZINKAUSBEUTE AUS EINEM ZINKSCHMELZE ENTHALTENDEN GEFÄSS

摘要

A device for removing dross from the surface of the molten metal and for extracting usable elemental metal from the dross. The device comprises a container in which the dross is collected, a means for lifting the container out of the molten bath of metal and an agitating means for chopping the dross to separate the elemental metal from the particles of metal oxides contained in the dross. Preferably, the container has perforations therein such that the elemental metal may drain through the perforations and back into the molten bath. The remaining dross is then dumped in a recycle bin by the device.
