Abstract
In a method of processing molten material, in the form of non-metallic melt such as slag, into amorphous material, in which the molten material is vitrified by cooling, wherein the molten material for being vitrified is brought into contact with a metal bath and then discharged as amorphous material from the metal bath, the molten material is introduced into the metal bath via an open end of a dip tube immersing into the metal bath and is in the metal bath conveyed away from the area of the open end of the dip tube, preferably by means of a mechanical disintegrator, preferably a rotor.
Claims33
A method of processing molten material (5), in the form of non-metallic melt (5) such as slag, into amorphous material (11), in which the molten material (5) is vitrified by cooling, wherein the molten material (5) for being vitrified is brought into contact with a metal bath (3) and then discharged as amorphous material (11) from the metal bath (3), characterized in that the molten material (5) is introduced into the metal bath (3) via an open end (4″) of a dip tube (4′) immersing into the metal bath (3) and in the metal bath (3) is conveyed away from the area of the open end (4″) of the dip tube (4′), preferably by means of a mechanical disintegrator (8), preferably rotor (8).
26 The device according to claim 25, characterized in that the stators (30) and/or the actuators (29) are designed to emit inert gas, preferably nitrogen, into the metal bath (3).
