Abstract

Secondary refining of lead is carried out in a reverberatory-type furnace by heating a charge of lead to a temperature of at least 1000 DEG F., and preferably not over 1400 DEG F., passing a mixture of air and oxygen containing over 40% by volume of oxygen into the lead below the surface thereof, while the lead is still at a temperature of at least 1000 DEG F., for a time sufficient to oxidize all the tin and arsenic completely and to reduce the concentration of antimony to about 0.03%, and separating the lead from the oxides and other slag material. In the absence of solid oxidants a slag containing a high proportion of antimony can be obtained. Preferably the gas is introduced into the melt through a lance composed of an alloy of nickel, iron, chromium and silicon, e.g. having the composition Ni 77.75%, Cr 13.5%, Fe 6.0%, Si 2.0% with Cu up to 0.25%, Mn 0.25% and C 0.25%.
