The copper ISASMELT ™ process has evolved over more than a quarter of a century and is considered mainstream, with single furnaces producing more than 340,000 tpa of copper in matte. Over the last 30 years the ISASMELT ™ technology has been developed into a process suited to various roles in the non-ferrous smelting industry …
During copper matte smelting, a lag exists in the analysis of the smelting results, leading to the production parameters not being effectively adjusted in time. As the first smelting process in copper pyrometallurgy, the optimization of the amount of raw material, as well as the prediction and adjustment of slag and matte phases, has …
The predominant copper process is reverberatory furnace smelting of sulfide concentrates to produce matte and slag, followed by treatment of the matte in …
There are several methods of copper smelting, the popular ones being reverberatory smelting and oxygen flash smelting. Both methods require the resultant molten copper to …
A basic flowsheet of smelting and refining can be found below [1, 2]: In a first step, smelting takes place in different types of furnaces depending on the raw materials and the process technology...
The use of low grade, high impurity copper concentrate has made the copper smelting process increasingly complex. As the composition of copper slag changes, controlling slag characteristics is essential to maintain process efficiency and improve slag matte separation. Al2O3 is one of the major gangue elements in the …
Mitsubishi process is a technology of continuous smelting of copper sulfide concentrates into blister copper by the smelting furnace, slag-cleaning electric furnace, and converting furnace interconnected by chutes.
A generic flow diagram of the copper smelting process is shown in Fig. 2. In this process, the concentrates are fed to the FSF with changeable feed rate after passing though feeder (Harjunkoski, Fahl, Borchers, 2008, Copper Development).
In general, slag from smelting process arises from extraneous materials such as rust and oxides; oxidation of elements in the charge (e.g. iron, copper, zinc); residues from fuels; fluxes employed in the process (silica, borax, sodium nitrate, sodium carbonate, fluorspar); crucible erosion.
In the base case a typical copper concentrate containing 25% Cu is selected to obtain a matte grade in the smelter of 70% Cu using a 60% O 2 blow; the matte from this step is …
