Side well

A single-chamber wet hearth melting furnace is a type of furnace that is commonly used in the aluminum industry for melting aluminum scrap into molten aluminum. One of the key features of this furnace design is the side well, which is an area located at the side of the furnace that allows for the removal of dross and other impurities from the molten aluminum during the melting process.

Dross is a layer of impurities that forms on the surface of the molten aluminum during the melting process. It is composed of aluminum oxide, other metal oxides, and various other impurities that are present in the aluminum scrap. The side well allows for the removal of this dross layer, which helps to improve the quality of the molten aluminum and reduce the amount of waste generated during the melting process.
