Antimony process American Smelting Refining. This invention relates to the metallurgy of antimony and particularly concerns certain improvements in concentrating and recovering antimony or antimony compounds from the byproducts resulting from pr
Get PriceThe major hazards are exposure to ore dusts during ore processing and smelting, metal fumes (including lead, arsenic and antimony) during smelting, sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide during most smelting operations, noise from grinding and crushing operations and from furnaces, and heat stress from the furnaces.
Get PriceAntimony compounds, primarily sodium antimonate, are also used in decolorizing and refining agents for optical glass and CRT glass. In the electronics industry, Sb use grows for diodes. Antimony metal is also used for production of antimonial lead, which is an important product of the secondary lead smelter.
Get PriceRefining gold from ore or concentrates is done during the smelting process. During this process, flux is used to dissolve contaminates such as metal oxides from the gold. The flux is added to a crucible with the gold that is then melted in a furnace. You can make flux for gold refining .
Get PriceRefining and casting the crude lead from the smelting furnaces can consist of softening, alloying, and oxidation depending on the degree of purity or alloy type desired. These operations are batch processes requiring from 2 hours to 3 days. These operations can be performed in reverberatory furnaces; however, kettletype furnaces are most commonly used.
Get Priceequipment used in smelting crude metal or ores Mining Zimbio . The first step in the gold smelting process occurs when ore containing gold is mined from the earth. At this point, the crude binding matter and the gold metal need .

Get PriceUsing paraffin as a bullet flux has the advantage of being cheap and widely available in most grocery stores, but it doesn't necessarily remove detrimental impurities, like calcium, aluminum, copper and zinc.
Get PriceJul 03, 2008· Once the flux turns to smoke, the smoke cannot in any way benefit the flux process unless you light it. Smoke adds zero benefit to fluxing, whereas flame adds considerable benefit. The flames and reducing atmosphere will assist and accelerate the fluxing process.
Get PriceNov 25, 2013· Since the weather is a brisk 55 deg. F, it was perfect for smelting some lead. Here's the equipment. I had put about 30 lbs of range lead along with rocks, dirt, etc. into the pot.
Get PriceAug 23, 2009· Smelting is a term that refers to a chemical reaction mediated by heat whereby a pure metal is extracted from its ore (which is an oxide). Flux is indeed used during that process to remove the rock which is also part of the ore.
Get PriceFlux: Flux,, in metallurgy, any substance introduced in the smelting of ores to promote fluidity and to remove objectionable impurities in the form of slag. Limestone is commonly used for this purpose in smelting iron ores.
Get PriceMar 28, 2016· So that is smelting, we do need to cover fluxes and a few details but this is the hardware, the rest is chemistry. The actual furnace I just described is currently being cast, the 1/4 scale model worked very well, It takes a # 40 crucible. They plan on using the little guy as well as the one being built.
Get PriceSmelting The extraction of metals from their ores is usually accomplished by the chemical reduction of the oxides of the metal with carbon in a furnace. The purpose of smelting sulphide ores is to produce a valuable metal concentrate, called matte.
