Copper slag is a hard material produced from smelting copper-bearing ores. Over the years, research has prioritized utilizing as secondary source of base metals. This paper focuses on grinding/milling copper collected BCL Mine in Botswana to obtain maximum amount desired size class with minimal energy consumption. will then be followed by an integrated flotation and leaching approach recover co...

anions. In the case of chloride and chloride and nitrate baths, it may be observed that only 40-60% of deposited copper is oxidized in the reverse potential sweep; these low charge recoveries are due to an disproportionation stage: the newly deposited copper reacts with the Cu~II! present in the reaction layer to form Cu~I!. For baths containing only nitrates, the efficacy of charge recovery is...

Waste management generated from a Chemical-Looping Combustion (CLC) plant using copper-based materials is analyzed by two ways: the recovery and recycling of the used material and the disposal of the waste. A copper recovery process coupled to the CLC plant is proposed to avoid the loss of active material generated by elutriation from the system. Solid residues obtained from a 10 kWth CLC proto...

OBJECTIVE Copper deficiency has been reported to cause hematological disorders. However, its clinical and hematological characteristics are not fully understood. Therefore, we investigated bedridden patients suffering from copper deficiency and tried to clarify the clinical features of hematological disorders caused by this condition. PATIENTS AND METHODS Five patients with typical copper def...

The influence of copper on the growth of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio alginolyticus (three strains), and an unidentified Vibrio sp. was examined in batch cultures. The effects of copper at micromolar concentrations varied from undetectable to complete growth inhibition. Each strain was able to recover from a growth...
