 What is the complete manufacturing process for producing tin ingots?

1. 1.
   ​​Raw Material Preparation​​
   • •
     Primary source: Tin concentrate (cassiterite, SnO₂) from mining
   • •
     Secondary source: Recycled tin from solder/e-waste
2. 2.
   ​​Smelting Process​​
   • •
     Reduction smelting at 1200-1300°C using fuel oil/coal
   • •
     Key reaction: SnO₂ + C → Sn + CO₂
   • •
     Produces 99.5%-99.8% crude tin
3. 3.
   ​​Refining Stages​​
   • •
     ​​Fire Refining:​​ Removes Sb, As by oxidation
   • •
     ​​Alkali Treatment:​​ Removes sulfur/arsenic
   • •
     ​​Acid Leaching:​​ Removes iron/other impurities
   • •
     ​​Electrolytic Refining (for high purity):​​ Achieves 99.99% purity
4. 4.
   ​​Casting Process​​
   • •
     Continuous casting or ingot mold casting
   • •
     Standard ingot weight: 25-40kg
   • •
     Cooling control to prevent internal stresses
5. 5.
   ​​Quality Control​​
   • •
     Spectroscopic analysis (ICP/AAS)
   • •
     Dimensional inspection
   • •
     Surface defect checking
   •
