Zusammenfassung:Described is a method and an apparatus for preheating and smelting manganese ore sinter. The method comprises feeding feed mixture (1) containing manganese ore sinter (2), reducing agent (3), and fluxing agent (4) into an submerged electric arc furnace (5), smelting feed mixture (1) to form a layer containing liquid manganese alloy and a layer containing slag, withdrawing liquid manganese and, discharging carbon monoxide containing carbonaceous gas (6), combusting carbon monoxide containing carbonaceous gas (6) in presence of oxygen such as air in a burner (7) to form carbon dioxide containing carbonaceous gas (9), and heating said feed mixture (1) in a pre-treatment silo (8) prior feeding said feed mixture (1) into the submerged electric arc furnace (5) with said carbon dioxide containing carbonaceous gas (9).
