Production. Tin smelting. Removing slag after tapping a furnace in a Southern tin smelter. The tin extracted from the ore has already been drawn off into floats for further refining. The slag is then run off to the right into ladles which will carry it to recooking operations. The slag is reintroduced to the process for further recovery of the metal

Production. Magnesium. A year ago this location was the barren desert of southern Nevada. Today an industrial city teams with the activities of over 12,000 workers as tons of steel and concrete give rise to the giant plant of Basic Magnesium. This exhaust tower, ninety feet high, with a portion of a metal recovery unit, in the background, will soon be adding to the huge production of the plant, which is scheduled for full operation in the summer of 1943

Hanna furnaces of the Great Lakes Steel Corporation. Detroit, Michigan. Coke oven pusher. A long square pusher is inserted through the entire section of the coke oven, thus pushing the coke out to the other side into the freight car. This coke oven is a modern by-product oven. All the gases and vapors liberated from the coal in the cooking processes are recovered. The coal is heated from fifteen to twenty hours in a temperature of about 1700 degrees F. The gases and vapors released by the coal are condensed for the recovery of such by-products as tar, benzol, and gas. At the end of the coking period, the incandescent coke mass is pushed into the quenching car
