Survey of melting furnaces for aluminium

The use of a pure starting material and mainly electric and gas-fired heating, results in relatively low emission levels from the melting. Due to the limited concern about off-gas quality, information on the flue-gas composition is limited. [Pg.113]

Data for each of the specific furnace types will be discussed and detailed in the subsequent sections. [Pg.113]
