Zusammenfassung:Hazardous substances are separated from used foundry sand by means of a triple fluid bed thermal reactor, second stage sand cooler and third stage pneumatic attrition scrubber. Temperatures in each of the reactor's beds are precisely controlled, depending upon the nature of the sand being treated, so that hazardous substances can be separated and disposed of, rather than fixing the substances onto the sand grains in insoluble form.
