FIELD: metallurgy.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to metallurgy, particularly to suppressing generation of iron-containing vapour during filling or emptying container (2) for an iron-containing metal melt with aid of CO2 snow. Method comprises applying CO2 snow jet (22) by means of nozzle (1) dispersing jet in a substantially planar manner, onto a surface of iron-containing stream (23) which is poured into or out of container (2). Disclosed device comprises container (2) for iron-containing melt, nozzle (1) to spray CO2 in substantially planar manner and device to control nozzle.
EFFECT: use of invention provides cheap and compact design, suppression of formation of iron-containing vapour during filling or emptying of a container using less CO2 snow.
