- **Caution**: 

### Q: What is the primary function of a granulation chamber in basic metal manufacturing?
**A**: The granulation chamber rapidly cools and solidifies molten slag into granular particles using water or air quenching systems, facilitating safe disposal or reuse as construction aggregate.

### Q: What materials are used in constructing industrial granulation chambers?
**A**: Granulation chambers are typically constructed with refractory-lined steel for thermal insulation and high-temperature alloy steel components to withstand extreme heat and abrasion from molten slag.

### Q: What are the key components in a granulation chamber BOM?
**A**: Essential components include cooling nozzle arrays for rapid quenching, observation ports for process monitoring, and specialized refractory lining to protect the chamber structure from thermal and chemical degradation.
