Abstract : The Processing of metal lumps into granules and powder is a challenging task in the modern manufacturing
industry. Some valuable metals like silver and gold are facing difficulty while processing them for granules and powers. The
major difficulty faced during the granulation with conventional process is irregular dimensions with very less yield and the
process is time-consuming too. The granulation process involves the breakage of a large lump in to small granules after
melting of metals and pours them in the coolant. During this process, metal get melts in a furnace and pour into water with
minimum orifice diameter. The metal falls within the water, which allows it to get cool at room temperature. This process is
to be carried out in a vacuum, and the process known as primary atomization. To get the further breakdown of granules in to
powder we have to follow the impinging of poured metal before sediment in to the water is needed. This disintegration
process involves the breakage of a metal droplet into the microns size by using the high-speed gas jet. This research article
presents granulation and atomization process and demonstrate that how we can achieve 100% yield of valuable metals by
using proposed technique. The experimental results showcase the effectiveness of the developed process.
