Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de combustion d'un métal électropositif par un gaz de combustion, selon lequel le métal électropositif provenant d'un réservoir, sous la forme d'un liquide ou d'une poudre dont les particules présentent une granulométrie inférieure à 100 µm, est aspiré par atomisation d'un gaz porteur hors du réservoir dans une première buse dont la section transversale s'amincit tout d'abord dans une direction d'écoulement du gaz porteur, est atomisé hors de ladite première buse et brûlé par le gaz de combustion. L'invention concerne également un dispositif permettant la mise en œuvre du procédé.
