Abstract

A nonferrous metal is heated so as to produce a hot gas that is passed through an evaporative-cooler and, without saturation of the gas, is introduced into a dry-process filter where particulate material is removed. Thereafter this gas is fed to a scrubbing tower whose scrubbing liquid removes gaseous, liquid, and any remaining particulate material from the gas and exits from the tower as a scrubbing liquor. This liquor is clarified and the decantate is recirculated for use as the scrubbing liquid while the sludge is neutralized and sent back to the evaporative cooler. The neutralized sludge is flash evaporated in the evaporative cooler so as to form crystals that are removed from the system either in this cooler or at the dry filter downstream therefrom. A particle filter may be provided between the neutralizer and the evaporative cooler to remove any hard particulate material from the neutralized sludge.
