Zusammenfassung: | Aluminum scrap having organic adhesions is processed to recover aluminum. A hearth of scrap chamber of a multi-chamber melting furnace is batchwise loaded with aluminum scrap where it is heated in low oxygen to convert the organic adhesions on the aluminum scrap into a pyrolysis gas. In a second pretreatment phase, the scrap chamber is heated to the auto-ignition temperature of the pyrolysis gas, wherein at least one air flow is provided in the scrap chamber to produce an ignitable substoichiometric pyrolysis gas/combustion air mixture which is reacted in the scrap chamber in a combustion process. The atmosphere from the scrap chamber is transferred to a post-combustion. A corresponding multi-chamber melting furnace is also provided. |
