Tiltable reverberatory furnaces
The MAERZ tiltable reverbaratory furnace has stood the test in the secondary copper industry. Large quantities of lower-grade copper scrp can be melted and refined in a single unit. Capacities between 50 t and 500 t have been implemented.
Advantages
-
Fast and continuous melting
-
Fast, efficient melting of the copper due to optimized burner technology
-
Fast charging of scrap material
-
High heat transfer rates to scrap and bath
-
High-quality copper output due to close process monitoring and efficient process
-
Quick and efficient reaction of the impurities in the copper due to direct blowing of the reaction agent through submerges tuyeres
-
Tilting system permits flexible operation on the charging/deslagging and casting sides
-
Fast, reproducible process
-
Easy, reduced maintenance
-
Ease of operation reduces personnel costs
-
Environmentally friendly working procedure due to off-gas hoods and slag and afterburning chamber
