Lead Smelter with slag granulator and Sinter plant

DESCRIPTION

DescriptionThe large circular tanks and stack is the granualtor. Previously the slag from the blast furnace was poured out at the northern end of the smelter. In this system the hot slag is turned into small granules and then taken by the conveyor coming out of the bottom onto another conveyor to the slag dump. The balloon flue can also be seen. This system extracts the fumes produced in the smelting process and exhausted out of the lead stack.RightsPublic DomainCollectionReginald O'BrienSubjectMiningMining Sites
