Lead processing
The smelted lead bullion and slag collect in the hearth, while zinc vapour undergoes combustion with carbon monoxide in the electric furnace to produce zinc oxide. Sulfurous gases generated by the smelting process are tapped from the waste shaft to heat steam and to produce sulfuric acid as a by-product.

Lead and Zinc Smelting
Lead and zinc can be produced pyrometal- lurgically or hydrometallurgically, depending on the type of ore used as a charge. In the pyromet- allurgical process, ore concentrate containing lead, zinc, or both is fed, in some cases after sin- tering, into a primary smelter. Lead concentra- tions can be 50–70%, and the sulfur content of sulfidic ...
