ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE nonmetallic inclusions and like contaminants are removed from a metal charge by melting the charge to form a molten pool on which the inclusion contaminants float and directing an electron beam onto a preselected portion of the pool surface, said selective beam impinge- ment causing the floating contaminants to segregate to surface portion while the inclusion contaminants are confined elsewhere on the pool surface provides a clean molten metal product. Apparatus for use with the process is also disclosed. The invention finds special applica- tion in the master melting or remelting of metals and alloys for conversion to ingot shapes or high purity molten metal for powder making, investment casting, forging and the like.
