Copper smelting slag usually contains 1–6 wt% copper, which can be recovered by pyrometallurgical and flotation processes. However, the tailing slags still consist of 0.3–0.7 Cu 35–45 Fe equivalents to those in copper iron ores, respectively. Most research was focused on recovery from slags. increase mechanical strength, corrosion resistance antibacterial property some steels. A new process rec...

a highly convenient, selective and sensitive procedure for pre-concentration, separation and determination of sub-ppm levels of cu 2+ in aqueous samples based on modification of octadecyl silica bonded phase membrane (osbpm) disks is described using benzildithiosemicarbazone  (bdsc) as a powerful modifier. it was revealed that each loaded osbpm disk with 6.0 mg of bdsc serves as excellent bead ...

An effective and benign process for copper and lead recovery from waste printed circuit boards (PCBs) was developed. In the process, the PCBs was pre-treated in supercritical water, then subjected to electrokinetic (EK) process. Experimental results showed that supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) process was strong enough to decompose the organic compounds of PCBs, and XRD spectra indicated th...
