A study was made of the rate of absorption of sulphur in grams per minute from sulphur dioxide - nitrogen gas mixtures by molten iron and iron containing four per cent carbon, The maximum rate of nitrogen flow and partial. pressure of sulphur dioxide was 350 ml/minute and 0ยท06 atmospheres respectively. The melts were contained in alundum and magnesia crucibles at 14000 - l550 [deg] C, the gas being blown on to the surface of the metal and occasionally bubbled through the metal for mixing purposes by means of an alumina tube. Samples or metal were taken periodically and analysed for carbon and sulphur by combustion methods.
