Pyrometallurgical services
Low-Temperature heat treatment
Low-temperature techniques in heat treatment and metallurgy include physical and chemical processes taking place at high temperatures but below the melting point.
A major part of our day-to-day activities includes low temperature heat treatment processes of raw materials, by-products, industrial wastes, alloys etc. The goal of these processes is the physical and/or chemical modification of the raw materials (e.g., removing impurities or volatile substances, incurring thermal decomposition, and improving reactivity, porosity, and crystallinity etc.).
Our services include:
- Calcination
- Microwave-assisted calcination
- Oxidizing roasting
- Reduction roasting
- Chlorination roasting
- Sulfidation roasting
- Microwave-assisted roasting
In our laboratory, we have the following pyrometallurgical equipment installed:
- Muffle furnace
- High-Temperature Muffle furnace
- Tube furnace
- Vacuum graphite furnace
- Rotary kiln
- Microwave rotary kiln
- Static microwave furnace
- Fluidized bed reactor
- Thermogravimetric furnace
High-Temperature heat treatment
High-temperature techniques in heat treatment and metallurgy include physical and chemical processes taking place at temperatures above the melting point.
A major part of our day-to-day activities includes high-temperature heat treatment processes of raw materials, by-products, industrial wastes, alloys etc. These processes aim either at the production (from primary or secondary raw materials), purification and alloying of metals at the molten state.
Our services include:
- Melting of metals and alloys
- Alloy synthesis
- Reductive or Oxidizing Smelting
We support these services by the following equipment installed in our facilities:
Electric arc furnace (80 kWA)
Induction vacuum furnace
High- Temperature muffle furnace
Vacuum graphite furnace
