<p>A method for refining and casting metals and metal alloys includes melting and refining a metallic material and then casting the refined molten material by a nucleated casting technique. The casting metals and metal alloys is refined by a melting and refining apparatus (20), and the refined molten material is provided to the atomizing nozzle (62) of a nucleated casting apparatus (60) through a transfer apparatus (40) adapted to maintain the purity of the molten refined material. The melting and refining apparatus (20), the transfer apparatus (40), and the nucleated casting appartus (60) are in serial fluid communication.</p> |
