In the El Teniente Converter, for example, the slag is forwarded to the El Teniente Slag Cleaning Furnace Process, which is a batch decoppering process that reduces magnetite and copper contents in the slag. This is achieved through the injection of a solid, liquid or gaseous reductant directly into the equipment.
The smelting process produces a glass like substance that will settle on the top of the melting copper and is basically the non-copper impurities being separated. The slag is then skimmed off the melted copper and delivered to a "slag heap" or slag dump where it is left to cool. Once cooled the slag is broken up with heavy machinery ...

A novel technology, modified roasting in CO–CO2 mixed gas and magnetic separation, was presented to recover iron from copper slag. The effects of various parameters such as dosage of flux (CaO), gas flowrate of CO and CO2, roasting temperature, roasting time, particle size of modified slag and magnetic flux density on …
The mineral processing method to recover copper from copper slag has increasingly become indispensable in pyrometallurgical copper smelting due to its high …
The copper slag processing facility produced granules of specific sizes for the abrasive blasting and roofing industries. All processing occurred outdoors, however equipment controls were located indoors. The facility was located on a past smelting site that processed mostly copper, and other metals such as silver and aluminum before its ...
The article discusses the issues of processing slag of copper production using devices that model ideal mixing.
As the world's largest producer of refined copper, China accounts for about 1/3 of the world's production. At present, China's refined copper is mainly produced by pyrometallurgy [1,2,3].The annual discharge of copper slag exceeds 10 million tons according to the calculation of 2.2 tons of copper slag per ton of refined copper …

1. Introduction. Copper slag is a waste produced during pyrometallurgical processing of metals from copper concentrates. The decomposition and oxidation reactions of the sulphide minerals in the concentrate leads to the production of three separate phases: matte, slag, and an off-gas.
The projected capacity of the copper slag processing is 340.000 tons per year with an average copper content of about 2 %. This amount of copper slag will be obtained from 290.360 tons/ year from the Flash process technology with copper content of 1,4 % and 49.640 tons/year from PS converter with copper content of 6 % (Sokolovic et al., 2015 ...
Abstract. The effectivity of present copper smelting technologies have their roots in industrial and laboratory-scale experience accumulated over the past decades. Since early '60s, the tools ...

During this step a combination of matte, a mixture of copper, sulfur and iron, and slag, a dense, glassy material made of iron, silica, and other impurities, is produced. The copper matte contains 58-60% copper at this point. ... Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of your copper processing equipment. Using our range of condition ...

1. Introduction. With the rapid development of construction, electronics, machinery, metallurgy and other fields, the production and consumption of copper have skyrocketed, with its production reaching 28.5 million tons in 2019 alone (Tian et al., 2021).About 80% of the annual copper production in the world is generated by …
Based on the background, a combinative residue-free leaching process for copper slag with sorting, roasting, acid leaching, carbonate precipitation, ammonia …
The effectivity of present copper smelting technologies have their roots in industrial and laboratory-scale experience accumulated over the past decades. Since early '60s, the tools for improving the processing conditions and smelting vessel design included scale modelling and manual computing of homogeneous multicomponent equilibria.
Forui Machinery hereby introduces a copper slag processing line, which can effectively recover copper particles from copper smelting slag. Technological Process. The most …
3.1 Sulfation roasting–water leaching 3.1.1 Effect of H 2 SO 4 addition. To determine the consumption of H 2 SO 4 in the sulfation roasting process, a predetermined weight of 98% H 2 SO 4 was mixed with the raw copper slag and then roasted at 200 °C for 1 h. The H 2 SO 4 addition varied in a range of 30–80 wt% (mass ratio of 98% H 2 SO …
In order to achieve single recovery of Fe, Cu and Si in copper slag and deep removal of impurities in products, the activated reduction combining directional oxidation are adopted to improve the separation limit of target components, which mineral constituent as well as chemical composition at different stages are investigated through …

Copper slag, a waste solid produced in the copper smelting process, is a high-quality secondary resource with huge output. The recycling and utilization of copper slag is of great interest because it avoids the loss of valuable metals and the threat of harmful metals, and saves a lot of natural resources and energy. This paper firstly …
Consequently, flotation was attempted to recycle Cu in slag containing copper sulphide components. Three key factors affecting flotation were ascertained, namely, grinding fineness, the collector and the pH value, while the recovery of Cu estimated by ICP and XRF.
