Contact SupplierEcoMelt Cokeless Melting Furnace is a Vertical Shaft Melting furnace and was invented and developed by Mr. Richard Taft, MD of Cokeless Cupolas, UK as a melting unit for Cast iron without use of coke as in a conventional cupola. It was patented by him in the year 1972. In December 2005, an agreement was signed between Cokeless Cupolas Ltd and Wesman to work together for propagating this low emission – high efficiency technology for the benefit of the ferrous foundries throughout the world.
The Cokeless Melting Furnace uses Natural Gas, Propane, LPG or Coal Bed Methane (CBM) which has similar composition and calorific value as that of Natural Gas. Even Light Oil may be used provided there is no Sulphur in the oil. Absence of sulphur makes the molten metal obtained from Cokeless Melting furnace suitable for conversion, after superheating, into Ductile Iron without going through the de-sulphurision process where temperature is reduced due to endothermic reaction. Thus further heating addition of heat energy to compensate the temperature loss is avoided by using the Ecomelt furnace.
