Scheme for the treatment of copper smelter flue dust

Author

John Perry Walker

Abstract

"In recent years, methods for improving the prevailing practice in treatment of flue dust have demanded the attention of those engaged in the copper and lead industries. Great advancement has been made in the more complete settling of the dust in large chambers and flues, and in some instances, more particularly in the case of lead smelters, in its extraction from the flue discharge of the furnaces by filtration through bags. Schemes for re-treating this recovered dust are, however, in a somewhat undeveloped state"--page 1.
