Apparatus for discharging liquid-covered, sedimented particles from a reaction chamber and subsequent drying of said particles, preferably metal particles which are produced in the upper portion of a reaction chamber partially filled with a liquid medium, by means of liquid-atomization or gas atomization of a stream of molten metal, whereby produced metal particles are collected at the bottom of the lower portion of said reaction chamber comprising a discharge means arranged at the bottom of said reaction chamber, said discharge means being arranged for an automatic operation and being connected to a sensing member at the bottom of said reaction chamber to sense the absence or presence of sedimented particles in said bottom in such a way that the discharging operation is automatically discontinued at a predetermined minimum quantity of collected particles and an outlet means connected to said discharge means, said outlet means being provided with a heating means and a movable motor-driven means arranged to transport said liquid-coated particles from said discharge means along said heating means, said discharge means and outlet means being arranged to prevent said particles from coming into contact with ambient air. |
