Abstract

See full text

A process for processing electric steelworks dusts containing oxidized high-iron, zinc-bearing materials in order to recover iron and zinc from [them] said dusts. The process includes the steps of: feeding the dusts to an induction furnace partially filled with a charge of metal or alloy to be smelted, wherein the charge is present as a molten bath that is made turbulent by induced currents; contacting the dusts with a surface of the turbulent molten bath inside the furnace; and reducing zinc and iron oxides contained in the dusts inside the furnace, while oxidizing zinc and carbon monoxide rising from the bath.
