Forms of Zinc Found in Electric Steel Smelting Furnace Gas Cleaning Dust

  • Published:
Metallurgist Aims and scope

Results are provided for a study of the elemental and phase composition of PAO Northern Pipe Plant electric steel smelting furnace gas cleaning dust. Dust particle shape and size are evaluated. X-ray microanalysis is used to determine the elemental composition of dust particles art local sampling points. It is shown that zinc in dust is found predominantly in calcium and magnesium ferrites, and also in spinels.
