PURPOSE: To restrain the generation of an aluminum oxide having high hardness by flowing the molten aluminum melted in a melting chamber into a holding chamber, holding it to a prescribed temp. and supplying gas for restraining the oxidation onto the surface of the molten metal.
CONSTITUTION: In an aluminum melting and holding furnace 1A, material to be molten Ai such as an aluminum ingot is charged into the melting chamber 2 from the outer part and heated with a direct firing burner FB and melted into the molten aluminum An. This molten aluminum An is flowed into the holding chamber 10 and the temp. thereof is raised with a submerged burner SB and held to the prescribed temp. and the molten metal is flowed into a molten metal tapping chamber 15 and digged out to the outer part. At this time, a hole SH is arranged on the roof of the holding furnace 10 and gaseous nitrogen is supplied from a gaseous nitrogen supplying device NS at the outer part through the hole SH to cover the surface of the molten aluminum An in the holding chamber 10. By this method, the oxidation of the molten aluminum An is restrained to obtain the good quality molten aluminum An.
