1. Introduction. Copper is an indispensable basic raw material for modern industry, however, the grade of copper ore is relatively low in China for the reason that the copper mines are dominated by lean ore, associated ore, and symbiotic ore, especially in the process of smelting it is necessary to add fluxes such as calcium oxide and silica, thus producing a large amount of copper smelting
The oxidation and reduction of molten copper slag were carried out and agreed well with theoretical calculations. Sulfur in slag can be dropped to 0.23 wt%, and the utilization rate of air is in the range of 14.98–73.39%. The copper recovery rate can reach 83.82% and the residue copper can be reduced to 0.28 wt%.
Jan 14, 2015· Abstract In order to reasonably utilize the iron resources of copper slags, the smelting chlorination process was used to remove copper from copper slags. Higher holding temperature and O 2 flow rate are beneficial to increasing copper removal rate.
Copper slag is a by-product obtained during smelting and refining of copper. Copper smelting slag typically contains about 1 wt.% copper and 40 wt.% iron depending upon the initial ore quality and the furnace type. Main components of copper slag are iron oxide and silica. T hese exist in copper slag mainly in the form of fayalite (2FeO·SiO 2
Copper processing Copper processing Roasting, smelting, and converting: Once a concentrate has been produced containing copper and other metals of value (such as gold and silver), the next step is to remove impurity elements. In older processes the concentrate, containing between 5 and 10 percent water, is first roasted in a cylindrical, refractory-lined
Jan 14, 2015· In order to reasonably utilize the iron resources of copper slags, the smelting chlorination process was used to remove copper from copper slags. Higher holding temperature and O2 flow rate are beneficial to increasing copper removal rate. However, the Cu2O mode is formed by the reaction of surplus O2 and CuCl with O2 flow rate increasing over 0.4 L/min, causing CuCl

Apr 15, 2020· Non-ferrous smelting, used to refine copper, lead, and similar metals, produces highly ferrous slag, as iron is an undesired element. Ferrous smelting, such as that used to produce steel, creates non ferrous slag, as all the iron is used in the smelting process. After slag is allowed to age, it can be sold for use in other industrial processes.
Copper processing Copper processing Roasting, smelting, and converting: Once a concentrate has been produced containing copper and other metals of value (such as gold and silver), the next step is to remove impurity elements. In older processes the concentrate, containing between 5 and 10 percent water, is first roasted in a cylindrical, refractory-lined furnace of either the hearth or
In the smelting process, either hot calcine from the roaster or raw unroasted concentrate is melted with siliceous flux in a smelting furnace to produce copper matte. The required heat comes from partial oxidation of the sulfide charge and from burning external fuel. Most of the iron and 10/86 (Reformatted 1/95) Metallurgical Industry 12.3-1
Any copper(I) oxide present will be converted into copper(I) sulfide during the smelting process because copper has a higher affinity for sulfur than it does for oxygen. for example: Cu 2 O + FeS → Cu 2 S + FeO. Impurities form a slag which floats on the surface and is easily removed. One of the reactions to remove iron impurities is shown below:
Copper slag is a byproduct obtained during the matte smelting and contains magnesium, iron oxide, and silica and copper slag catalysts are cheaper than nickel-based catalysts and non toxic [18]. In this sense, copper slag is an important co-product of the metallurgy industry that copper slag is mainly composed of Ferro silicate and magnetite
All primary sulfide ores of copper sulfides, and most concentrates of secondary copper sulfides (being chalcocite), are subjected to smelting.Some vat leach or pressure leach processes exist to solubilise chalcocite concentrates and produce copper cathode from the resulting leachate solution, but this is a minor part of the market.. Carbonate concentrates are a relatively minor product
Lead smelting consists of oxidation and reduction stage, and both can be performed in two bottom blowing furnaces separately. The lead material mixed with flux in proportion is charged into bottom blowing furnace for oxidation where lead bullion and high lead slag are produced.
