After liquid aluminium is syphoned off during the reduction process, it is transferred to furnaces for casting. Casting can refer to the production of moulded primary aluminium products that require further fabrication, as well as near-net shape products that require limited subsequent processing. Let's explore both. Primary Aluminium Products Near …

The mixture is passed through the sinter machine to remove sulphur. The gas generated from the sintering process is sent to the sulphuric acid plant. The de-sulphurized output of the sinter machine is broken for size reduction before being fed into an Imperial Smelting Furnace, or ISF, where it is smelted with preheated met-coke and air.
