Inventors include Northern, Donnie L.; Shockley, Richard Lee; Kosmicki, Tina; Koentopp, Cameron J.; and Mccallum, John Robert Buster.

The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.

Abstract: A molten metal processing system for processing molten material, such as molten metal, includes a scrap submergence device, one or more sensors, and a controller. The scrap submergence device may mix the molten material in a containment structure, and the one or more sensors may obtain information about one or more processing parameters of the molten metal processing system. The controller is communicatively coupled with the one or more sensors and may receive data from the one or more sensors. The controller may determine a position or other parameter of the scrap submergence device within the containment structure and/or may determine a control response for the scrap submergence device.
