Influence of Process Parameters on Copper Content in Reduced Iron Silicate Slag in a Settling Furnace

Influence of Process Parameters on Copper Content in Reduced Iron Silicate Slag in a Settling Furnace

During the pyrometallurgical extraction of copper, a significant fraction of this metal is lost with discard slag, which decreases profits and overall copper recovery. These copper losses can be reduced by using a settling furnace, in which suspended droplets containing copper separate from slag und...
