Abstract

A system for purification of molten metal to remove impurities such hydrogen gas and alkali elements therefrom is disclosed which comprises passing the molten metal through an enclosed passageway at a velocity of at least about 0.1 cm/sec and introducing a sparging gas into the passageway whereby the velocity of the molten metal will shear off bubbles of the sparging gas as they are formed resulting in smaller bubbles with larger gas/molten metal interface area to achieve maximum contact between the sparging gas and the molten metal to enhance removal of impurities from the molten metal.
