Ausmelt® TSL Furnace

Benefit from the flexible design of the Metso Ausmelt® TSL (top submerged lancing) Furnace for pyrometallurgical processing, part of the Metso Ausmelt® TSL process range.

Ausmelt® TSL Furnace

The furnace configurations range from fully insulated – comprising a steel shell lined with refractories – to intensively cooled, which uses Metso cooling elements to ensure the containment of the molten furnace contents. The furnace may also be integrated with a waste heat boiler for high temperature operations to maximize energy recovery from the process off-gases.

Benefits

Boasts a competitive capital cost with simple furnace construction and standard ancillary equipment
Has a small furnace footprint – suitable for sites with limited space
Requires less ancillary equipment than alternative technologies
Has low fugitive gas and dust emissions as furnace is a stationary, well-sealed vessel operating under negative pressure
Made to a flexible design – allows solution to be tailored to your process and individual needs

Typical delivery scope:

Furnace steelwork including shell and roof
Furnace refractory
Cooling elements
Furnace support structure

Product handling options include various tap-hole arrangements depending on the process application, or continuous removal of the molten furnace contents via Metso Ausmelt TSL Furnace weir. The optimized Metso Ausmelt TSL Furnace can be constructed on site or supplied as a modular delivery to enable rapid installation.
