CODELCO, Chile Programs Its Copper-Smelting Operations
CODELCO’s Chuquicamata Copper Smelter, located in Chile, must meet an environmental standard established in 2002 that limits the sulfur emissions from the copper-production process. This regulation placed new restrictions on the production process, and consequently the heuristic criteria based on years of operator experience no longer resulted in high production levels. We developed a model to ...
متن کاملRecirculation of Chilean Copper Smelting Dust with High Arsenic Content to the Smelting Process
Most of the dust generated from the copper smelting process in Chili has been stored after the stabilization by hydrometallurgical process because it contains high concentration of arsenic. However, in recent years, the generation of dust has increased because of degrading the quality of concentrate. In addition, the environmental regulations become stricter. On the other hand, valuable metals ...
متن کاملAluminum smelting
Hans Christian Oersted first heated potassium amalgam with aluminum chloride and produced tiny pieces of aluminum in 1825. This was twenty years after Sir Humphrey Davy first named the metal “aluminum.” Davy was the first to use electrolysis to produce samples of potassium, sodium, strontium, calcium, barium, magnesium and boron. He tried unsuccessfully for many years to produce aluminum by ele...
متن کاملApplication of Phytoremediation to Reduce Environmental Pollution of Copper Smelting and Refinery Factories: a Review
Copper smelting and refinery factories are the final stages of a pyrometallurgical processing chain, and they cause many environmental challenges around the world. One of the most common environmental problems of these factories is toxic emissions. These toxic gases have harmful effects on the vegetation, animal species, soils, and water resources around the factories. Phytoremediation can play...
متن کاملEffect of grinding time on flotation recovery of copper smelting slags in Bardaskan district
Copper smelting slags are hard materials. Therefore,to recover their copper by flotation method, grinding should be carried out to obtain optimal particle size. Copper smelting slags in the Bardeskan district, with work index of 16.24 kwh/st, were grinded for 65 minutes to reach an acceptable degree of freedom for the flotation tests, with particle size of 80%, smaller than 70 μm. With this gri...
