Abstract: Copper smelter slag and copper smelter slag flotation tailings were leached using sulphuric acid solutions, without or with the addition of either ferric sulphate or hydrogen peroxide. Copper extraction from the slag was typically found to be twice as high as that from the slag flotation tailings.
Smelting is a process of applying heat to ore in order to extract a base metal.It is a form of extractive metallurgy.It is used to extract many metals from their ores, including silver, iron, copper, and other base metals.Smelting uses heat and a stone reducing agent to decompose the ore, driving off other elements as gases or slag and leaving the metal base behind.
Copper smelting slag is produced from copper pyrometallurgy (both smelting and converting stages), usually grading at 0.3-3%. The slag may also contains lead & zinc minerals like galena, sphalerite. Copper mainly dwells in the slag in the form of bornite, chalcocite, chalcopyrite, and metallic copper.
The principal ore of copper is copper pyrite and copper is extracted from this ore. The different steps in extraction of copper are: Crushing and Concentration: The ore obtained from mines are broken down into small piece by jaw crusher and then pulverized. The ore being sulphide ore is concentrated by froth floatation process.
possible option. The copper slag contains a high content of silica and iron. The solution final pH is the most important factor affecting the removal of iron and silica from the leach solution and the overall metal recovery. Fe removal from the leaching of copper slag is done by the formation of a metal hydroxide.

It is in the blast furnace that extraction of iron occurs. The extraction of iron from its ore is a long and subdued process, that helps in separating the useful components from the waste materials such as slag. What happens in the Blast Furnace? The purpose of a Blast Furnace is to reduce the concentrated ore chemically to its liquid metal state.

Mintek has been working on the recovery of cobalt, and the associated valuable metals, from slags, since 1988, using DC-arc furnace technology to effect selective carbothermic reduction of the oxides of cobalt, nickel, copper, (and zinc, where present), while retaining the maximum possible quantity of iron as oxide in the slag.
Blister copper is 99% pure. It contains impurities mainly iron but little amount of As, Zn, Pb, Ag and Au may also be present. These impurities adversely affect the electrical as well as mechanical properties of copper. Therefore, they must be removed.
Processing of copper converter slag for metal reclamation. Part I: Extraction and recovery of copper and cobalt. Deng T(1), Ling Y. Author information: (1)Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, PR China. [email protected] Clean processing of copper converter slag to reclaim cobalt and copper could be a challenge.
As seen from Figs. 2–6, the extraction of copper is lower than that of cobalt and zinc; which is attributed to its mineralogical form in the copper smelting slag. Also, the content of silicon in the liquor of all experiments is very low (about 100–110 mg/L) and constant because silicon is precipitated with iron
Dissolution of copper and iron from the calcine was found to be very fast and was complete within the first few minutes. The water temperature in the leaching step was found to have no effect on extraction of copper and iron from the calcine in the range of 30 to 85 oC. Keywords: copper, slag, sulphation, roasting, acid baking, leaching
The method of extraction of brass, zinc oxide and copper oxide from the slag brass foundry relates to the field of color hydrometallurgy and can be used for selective removal of toxins brass production, brass, zinc oxide, copper oxide and by-products suitable for waste-free production use in industry.
Matte, crude mixture of molten sulfides formed as an intermediate product of the smelting of sulfide ores of metals, especially copper, nickel, and lead.Instead of being smelted directly to metal, copper ores are usually smelted to matte, preferably containing 40–45 percent copper along with iron and sulfur, which is then treated by converting in a Bessemer-type converter.

A hydrometallurgical process for treating slag material, especially copper smelter slag material, comprises vigorously mixing the slag material with about one part by weight of sulfuric acid and about one part by weight of water for each part by weight of the slag material, and allowing the resulting mixture to react to produce a dry, solid material, containing the metal values of the slag in

The extraction of Ni, Co and Cu from nickel smelting slags into iron sulphide mattes derived from pyrrhotite was investigated to determine the potential for recovery of these metals from slags. The distribution ratio, L = concentration in matte/concentration in slag, decreased in the order L(Cu) > L(Ni) > L(Co). The distribution ratios

EXTRACTION OF COPPER FROM SULPHIDE ORE Large amount of copper are obtained from copper pyrite (CuFeS2) by smelting. Ores containing 4% or more copper are treated by smelting process. Very poor ores are treated by hydro-metallurgical process. EXTRACTION OF COPPER BY SMELTING PROCESS Following steps are involved in the extraction of copper.
Nickel processing Nickel processing Extraction and refining: The extraction of nickel from ore follows much the same route as copper, and indeed, in a number of cases, similar processes and equipment are used. The major differences in equipment are the use of higher-temperature refractories and the increased cooling required to accommodate the higher operating temperatures in nickel
Answers will vary. When copper (and its alloys) and aluminum are exposed to air, they react to form a layer of corrosion that protects the metal from further corrosion. The layer of rust formed when iron reacts with air, on the other hand, is crumbly, and therfore freshlayers of the iron are constantly being exposed to
(FeO.SiO 2 can also represented as FeSiO 3). After the slag is removed, the resulting product, called matte, is a mixture of copper sulfides (mostly Cu 2 S) and impurities such as iron sulfides. This matte, containing about 40% copper, can then be fed to a converter.
