Title: Improvements in and relating to the recovery of metals from scrap
IPC: C22B7/00
Filed: 1947-01-09
Abstract: A process for the recovery of metal from scrap containing volatile metals wherein the scrap is melted by controlled oxidation of solid carbon by means of a gas containing at least 30 per cent by volume of oxygen, e.g. oxygen or oxygen-enriched air, and heated to such a temperature that most of the volatile metal present is removed by volatization, the combustion condition being so controlled that the gaseous products form a mixture substantially non-oxidizing to the said volatile metal.  If zinc is to be vaporized from brass scrap the temperature will be above 1150 DEG C. and the carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide ratio in the gaseous products will be at least 500. When the initial material contains lead the temperature will be above 1650 DEG C. and the said ratio any value appreciably over zero.  When the initial material contains a copper alloy of cadmium the temperature will be above 800 DEG C. and the said ratio above 2.5. When the initial material contains a copper alloy of antimony, the temperature is above 1400 DEG C. and the said ratio any value appreciably over zero.  It is preferred to use charcoal as the solid carbon in the process. Specification 582,506 is referred to.

A separator for separating constituent from a flowable medium having constituents of different specific gravities comprises a cylindrical vortex chamber 1, Fig. 1, into which one portion of the medium enters at one end through an inlet pipe 2 after being throttled at 9 and being given a preliminary spin by vanes 3 and the other portion of the medium enters at the opposite end via vanes 5 which surround an outlet pipe 4 for the constituent-free medium and impart to the medium a helical flow 12, an outlet gap 10 for the separated constituent being provided around the inlet pipe 2. The separator may function as an air cleaner for an i.c. engine, the dirty air being sucked in through a pipe 6 and divided into two portions flowing through conduits 7 and 8. In the vortex chamber, the air entering through the vanes 5 create a potential helical flow 12 which flows downwardly and then inwardly above the mouth of the pipe 2 and upwardly, with the air entering through the pipe 2, to form a rotary helical flow 13. In the lower region of the rotary flow the dirt particles in the air are projected outwards towards the vortex chamber chamber wall and are discharged in a bunker with a branch of the potential flow 12 thorugh the outlet gap 10. The throttling aperture 9 may be adjustable. In Fig. 2, three vortex chambers 1 are connected in parallel. A portion of the air is fed to the inlets 2 from a common manifold 18 and the other portion to the vanes 5 from. a common manifold 15. The purified air flows through the outlet pipes 4 into a common manifold 16 connected via a carburettor or otherwise to an i.c. engine. A fan may be provided in the purified air flow path. The dirt particles are collected in a common bunker 17 in which a slight suction may be produced, e.g. by means of the exhaust from the i.c. engine. The separator may be used to supply clean air to helicopter drives, agricultural and building machines, coal cutters and drilling machines. It may also be used to separate liquid particles from liquid/gas mixtures such as oil sump mists.
