The new Kennecott Utah Copper smelter, started in 1995, was designed to be the cleanest smelter environmentally in the world. The plant is operating at production rates above the original design capacity. Copper concentrate is smelted in an Outokumpu flash smelting furnace. Matte is granulated and processed using Kennecott-Outokumpu flash converting. Copper anodes are processed in a modernized ...

When the pressure leaching process of chalcopyrite is operated in low and medium temperature range 90℃~150℃, sulfur component converted to elemental sulfur, which suppresses copper. In present study, copper rate was improved by adding chloride ions surfactants during medium-temperature at 150℃. Using autoclave equipped with a 2L reactor made titanium, leach tests were conducted for 180 min usin...

We concentrate here on the situation for cadmium, copper, and lead. For the...

We describe the use of electrical methods for evaluating mechanical reliability and properties of patterned copper and aluminum interconnects on silicon substrates. The approach makes use of controlled Joule heating, which causes thermal strains in the materials system due to differences in thermal expansion between the metal and constraining substrate and passivation. Our efforts concentrate o...

The reserve of the copper-oxide-bearing limonite ore (COBL ore) in Yulong Copper Co., Ltd. is up to 20 million tons with 1.79% copper content. characters resources COBL are high-proportioned oxidation state (99.98%) and combined (84.83%). oxide mainly limonite, which has a content more than 78%. Because high altitude average annual temperature 15 °C Tibet, fire leaching cannot be adopted. effic...

We report experimental high power test results on a high gradient 17 G H z RF photocathode gun. The 1 2 cell, π -mode, copper cavity was tested with 5-10 MW , 100 ns, 17.145 G H z pulses from a 24 MW Haimson Research Corp. klystron. A maximum surface electric field of 250 MeV/m was achieved corresponding to an on-axis gradient of 150 MeV/m. The gradient was verified by a preliminary electron be...
