Slag Skimming

Slag skimming involves the use of tools like slag skimmers, ladles, or slag rakes to remove slag from the surface of molten metal.

The removed slag is then placed in slag pots or beds for further processing or disposal. Ensuring thorough slag removal is crucial to maintaining the purity and quality of nickel matte.

AMETEK Land's Slag Detection System includes a camera component that visually inspects slurries to confirm that all slag has been successfully skimmed off.
