ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A furnace installation for the pyrometallurgical treat- ment of fine grain ore concentrates having a levitation-melting reactor and a settling hearth accommodated in a common housing separated by a partition. The furnace installation according to the present invention is such that the reactor and the settl- ing hearth, together with the separating partition, are so arranged that heat losses are reduced, resulting in decreased specific power consumption, and lower operating and investment costs. To achieve this, a roof-wall of the common furnace hous- ing projects downwardly in the area of the partition between a collecting chamber and the settling hearth. In this way, it is possible to minimize the height of the cooled partition which dips from above into a bath of molten metal and slag, the par- tition being located between the collecting chamber and the settling hearth, whereby the effective cooling area of the cool- ed partition is minimized. As a result, as little heat as possible is lost from the melting unit, the molten metal cooling, and the settling hearth through the cooled partition to the out- side. The furnace installation includes a levitation-melting reactor, a waste-gas stack for removing gas and dust, and a collecting chamber for collecting molten metal. The collecting chamber communicates with a settling hearth beneath the parti- tion which dips vertically into the bath of molten metal.
