Abstract:
A cooling system for use in support of a pyro-metallurgical furnace includes a liquid heat transfer fluid blend of 10%-50% water with monoethylene glycol (MEG), diethylene glycol (DEG), or triethylene glycol (TEG), and corrosion inhibitors. When using such glycols, a minimum of 10% water prevents the heat transfer fluid from becoming too viscous for economical pumping, and a maximum of 50% water prevents BLEVE incidents inside the furnace. Such intrinsically safe cooling system circulates the liquid heat transfer fluid blend with an optimally sized pump, filtration, pressurization, and at flow velocities sufficient to avoid film boiling.

Claim (Index 2):
The water-based heat transfer fluid cooled system of  claim 1 , wherein the appliance comprises a subsonic top submerged lance (TSL) subject to wear and bending that can be caused by the inadequate or uneven cooling conventionally provided by an oxidizing gas flow down into a nonferrous pyro-metallurgical furnace, and wherein the circulation of the coolant through a jacket surrounding the TSL precludes such wear and bending safe from BLEVE caused by leaks of coolant.
