DetailsThe invention is applied in non-ferrous metallurgy. Its application results in achieving high non-ferrous metals recovery from metallurgical semies and secondary raw materials at lower fuel consumption as well as in reducing the dust quantity in the outlet exhaust gases. According to the method, on the grounds of preset process parameters, a charge is made of zinc containing …
DetailsIn this process, zinc-bearing dust is reductively heated in a rotary kiln to approximately 1200 °C [6,7,8]. Zinc, lead, chloride, and fluoride are volatilized and collected as fine particles in the dust collection system. ZnO is the main zinc-containing phase formed by the Waelz process. It represents one source of crude zinc oxide (C.Z.O.).
DetailsIn an electrothermic furnace, reduction of zinc oxide using carbon provided by the charging of coke to the furnace produces CO2. In the Waelz kiln, the zinc feed materials are heated to approximately 1200°C in the presence of carbon producing zinc vapor and carbon monoxide (CO). When combined with the surplus of air in the kiln, the zinc ...
DetailsZinc Resources' Victoria County facility would recycle dust captured during the steel recycling process and produce two end products – Waelz Zinc Oxide (WZO) and Waelz Iron Product (WIP). The dust generated by electric arc furnaces during the steel production process can be economically recycled to create what is called "Waelz Zinc Oxide ...
DetailsDuring this process, zinc from galvanized coatings evaporates into a dust. This dust is normally landfilled or treated with a Waelz kiln. Waelz kilns use coal to reduce and evaporate the zinc, forming a low-purity zinc oxide product known as Waelz oxide. This process produces an iron slag waste stream, that at best can be used as aggregate.
DetailsThe total installed capital cost of the described Waelz kiln line as shown in Figure 2 and 3 is approximately $2,000,000 USD. 5. WAELZ KILN: STEEL INDUSTRY 5.1 Electric Arc Kiln Dust Common to the recycled steel industry is to produce zinc oxide from electric arc kiln dust (EAFD) and recover zinc-free iron.

DetailsThe current state of the art for the treatment of these wastes is based on the use of a Waelz Kiln, or any other zinc fuming system, where the zinc contained in the EAFD is concentrated in Crude Zinc Oxide (C.Z.O.), which is then fed to sulfate electrowinning or to the Imperial Smelting Process to produce zinc metal.
DetailsAfter EAFD is treated through Waelz process, increasing the zinc content and modifying the mineralogy of the zinc compounds, obtained Waelz oxide is a useful raw material for zinc industry, but it still has certain limitations. Therefore, WO is an important zinc source if it is mixed with purer zinc raw materials.
