As an advanced smelting equipment, the medium frequency induction furnace has been widely used in the field of gold ore smelting due to its fast heating speed, uniform heating and pollution-free characteristics. This article will introduce in detail the process of how the medium frequency induction furnace smelts gold ore.
First, the gold ore raw materials are sent to the medium frequency induction furnace after pre-treatment such as mining, crushing and grinding. These raw materials usually contain gold ore sand, flux and other components. The addition of flux can lower the melting point and improve the extraction efficiency of gold. Before smelting, the operator will strictly proportion and inspect the raw materials to ensure the smooth progress of the smelting process.
When the raw materials are ready, the medium frequency induction furnace starts. The induction coil in the furnace uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate high-density magnetic lines to cut the metal material, thereby generating eddy currents and heat in the metal material. This non-contact heating method enables the raw materials to heat up and melt quickly. During the melting process, the operator needs to constantly stir the molten pool to ensure uniform composition.
As the temperature rises, the gold ore raw materials gradually melt. At this time, the difference in physical properties such as density and melting point between precious metals and impurities is used for preliminary separation. Precious metals and impurities can be separated to a certain extent by methods such as pouring and centrifugation. In order to improve the purity of gold, chemical methods can also be used for purification. Specific chemical reagents are added to react chemically with impurities to form separable compounds or precipitates, and then impurities are removed by filtering, washing and other methods.
The purified precious metal solution can be further mixed with the silver alloy solution to prepare an alloy containing gold and silver. In this process, the composition ratio and process parameters of the alloy need to be strictly controlled to ensure product quality.
Finally, the prepared alloy solution is cooled and solidified into an ingot shape for polishing and testing. After passing the test, the ingot will be further processed into finished products such as gold bars and gold coins of various shapes and specifications.
During the entire smelting process, the medium frequency induction furnace not only improves the smelting efficiency, but also greatly reduces energy consumption and pollution. Its precise temperature control and advanced environmental protection measures make gold smelting more efficient, environmentally friendly and safe. In the future, with the continuous advancement and innovation of technology, the application of medium frequency induction furnaces in the field of gold smelting will become more extensive and in-depth.
