Copper smelting slag is the solid waste generated in the process of smelting copper Due to the limitations of the smelting technology most of the copper smelting slag contains a certain amount of copper Disposing and recycling copper can effectively reduce the waste of useful resources while generating considerable economic effectiveness
Efficiency of Copper Recovery from a Slag in the Large Electric Furnace Figure 4 Calculated copper content in a slag versus time based on simple gravitational settling and gravitational coalescence model The gravitational coalescence model did not show significant removal of metallic copper
consumption 183 million tons 2 in Japan However heat recovery from melted slag is not an easy task With heat removal the slag changes its phase from liquid to solid thus the direct heat recovery from the melted slag is not possible At this moment heat recovery from slag has not yet been conducted commercially
Copper can be lost from the matte in three ways as cuprous oxide Cu 2 O dissolved in the slag as sulfide copper dissolved in the slag or as tiny droplets or prills of matte suspended in the slag The amount of copper lost as oxide copper increases as the oxygen potential of the slag increases
In order to recover the iron in copper smelting slag quenched with water in smelters carbothermic reduction was adopted to reduce the iron oxide existing in different phase such as fayalite vitreous and magnetite in the slag to metal iron In the optimum conditions it was demonstrated that the metallization efficiency of iron could reach more than 86 1
