Abstract

Two phase emulsion is widely used to increase the reaction efficiency. Slag-metal emulsion is used widely in metallurgy to increase the efficiency of the process. Previously, Pb-salt emulsion system at high temperature has been studied experimentally and mathematically. In this work the study has been extended to Al-salt and Sn-salt systems to cover wider physical properties at much higher temperature, both experimentally as well as mathematically. Further the mathematical model has been verified against various published emulsion systems, having a wide variety of physical properties. Using this model, the effect of various physical properties of slag and iron, such as viscosity, density and drop size, on the iron-slag emulsion system has been studied. It is found that the iron droplets of the size of 100 mu m or lesser may be entrapped in the slag if sufficient time is not allowed to settle them into the metal phase.
