Problems solved by technology

Metal zinc evaporates in a large amount at about 900°C and is oxidized into zinc oxide. Since there is no price change, there is no low-temperature sublimation phenomenon, and the volatilization rate can only increase with the increase of temperature. It can reach about 98% at 1250-1300°C. It will not significantly help the volatilization of metal zinc, but will increase energy consumption and damage the furnace body. The high temperature of slag melting will easily cause the kiln to freeze, resulting in unsmooth production, short furnace life, and frequent maintenance. Therefore, the germanium and indium components in the raw materials After being fully oxidized to a high-valent oxide, it is difficult to volatilize into the dust for enrichment and recovery. At the same time, the amount of silicon dioxide in the dust at high temperature is much larger than that of germanium, and the chemical properties of silicon and germanium are similar, and it has an isoelectronic molecular structure.
