ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling slag in a tilting furnace are provided. The apparatus comprises a trough having a lateral opening, a discharge outlet, and a passage for defining a non-linear flow path between the lateral opening and the discharge outlet. The method comprises the steps of tilting the furnace to discharge molten metal and slag into the trough, directing the flow of the molten metal through the flow path in the trough, damming and retaining the slag in the trough while permitting the molten metal to flow out of the trough, and discharging the retained slag through the lateral opening in the trough.
