Abstract
An improved flux used for the recovery of metallic aluminum from dross in a reverberatory furnace. The flux is an alloyed mixture of sodium chloride and potassium chloride in approximately equal parts by weight which has been preheated and then cooled to form an alloyed mixture. A small amount of cryolite can be added to the liquid mixture before cooling to improve the recovery of metal obtained than when the salt and potash flux mixture is used alone.
