Equilibrium Relations between Liquid Copper, Matte and Calcium Ferrite Slag at 1523 K

Thermodynamic Investigation of Copper Removal From Liquid Slag.

The removal of copper dissolved in liquid stags by pyrometalIurgical means such as gaseous reduction and sulfidization is thermodynamically investigated. The lowest level possible for copper content is theoretically determined and compared. The results show that gaseous reduction is not as effective as sulfidization. Slags with very low levels of dissolved copper can be obtained with sulfide tr...

Recovery of Copper from Copper Slag and Copper Slag Flotation Tailings by Oxidative Leaching

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. Hydrogen peroxide was determined to be the best lixiviant. Thus, copper and iron extractions were ...

Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium of the Ternary System Water/Formic Acid/1-Pentanol at T= 308.2 K

(Liquid + Liquid) Equilibrium for Ternary System of (Water + Phenol + Cyclohexane) at T = 298.2 K

Experimental solubility curves and tie-line data for the (water + phenol + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol) system was obtained at T = 298.2 K and atmospheric pressure. The tie-line data was determined by techniques karl-fischer and refractometry. This ternary system exhibits type-2 behavior of LLE. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were measured to evaluate the extracting ability of the solve...

NEW REFRACTORY MATERIALS FOR THE COPPER INDUSTRY

Wear of various basic refractory materials to substitute to currently used magnesia chrome bricks has been studied, measuring matte and slag penetration and dissolution, through different cup and rotary slag tests. High magnesia with and without impregnation, magnesia graphite, magnesia-alumina spinel with and without impregnation, olivine-magnesia and olivine magnesia- graphite bricks, as well...
