технология/процесс плавки, разработанная компанией Империал Смелтинг (Imperial Smelting Corp.)

The Avonmouth smelter began the ISP revolution that, in the 1950s, was hailed as a technological breakthrough for smelting lead-zinc bulk concentrates. The process was developed by Imperial Smelting Corp. with the British Government's encouragement during World War II to ease dependence on imported zinc from Belgium and Germany. A
unique feature of the ISP was its ability to recover lead and zinc simultaneously from bulk concentrates, which are difficult and
expensive to separate. An additional advantage was its ability to accept large quantities of recycled material. The main disadvantage
of the ISP was the low grade of the recovered zinc, which often had to be further refined.
