Zusammenfassung:A method for the gas atomisation of melts comprises delivering of molten material into an atomising vessel 3; impinging the molten material with a jet of heated atomising gas; and delivering the subsequently solidified, atomised particles of the formerly molten material which are suspended in the atomising gas to a cyclone 8 for separation wherein the particles are transfered to a receiving vessel 12 and the gas is extracted and cooled from its extraction temperature and then at least a proportion of this cooled gas, is re-circulated and re-introduced into the atomising vessel 3. The invention also includes apparatus for carrying out the above defined method.
