Tests related to copper smelting
Thread Content
For the new copper smelting project at my company, as a newcomer, I am not very familiar with the analysis tests involved in copper smelting. Could someone tell me what other tests are conducted during copper smelting besides sulfuric acid, and what is the frequency of these tests? Thank you.
In the case of wet smelting, sulfuric acid, copper, and iron are the main substances that need to be analyzed; production control requires daily testing to provide data for production.

This old book might be useful to you: Copper, Lead, and Zinc Metallurgical Analysis.
It’s mainly copper; regular analysis for the others is sufficient
For rapid analysis right at the furnace in pyrometallurgical processing, a spectrometer is the best option; I use the ARL-3460 from Thermo Electron in my case.
It’s not clear whether it is the melting or refining stage; there are mainly 3 types of analysis: 1. Slag morphology, iron, calcium, magnesium, silicon, etc； 2. In-furnace analysis: oxygen, lead, Ni, Sb, Bi, As ； 3. Product analysis: Cu, lead, Ni, Sb, Bi, As ； The frequency is determined based on the number of furnace cycles and the number of times copper is produced.

Could you please send me a copy of the book “Metallurgical Analysis of Copper, Lead, and Zinc”? I can’t find the content of this book at the moment. Thank you. My email address is sdzgq2000@163.com. This post was last edited by sdzgq2000 on 2008-5-9 at 16:50.]

If it is a newly launched project, it is advisable to conduct metal phase analysis. It’s very useful for production analysis. Taking iron as an example, ferric tetraoxide is something that needs to be avoided in production, whereas ferrous iron is what we want to produce.

I’m very interested in what everyone is talking about, but I can’t find any specific content to learn from*
Could you please send me the information that teacher has on various tests related to wet copper smelting? I can’t find any materials on this topic. Thank you very much. My email address is zhaoxuejian7@163.com
It’s in data sharing. Download it yourself! !
Copper smelting testing is mainly divided into the following categories: 1. For raw materials, namely copper concentrate, the analysis includes constant elements such as Cu, Pb, Zn, Fe, As, as well as trace elements such as Bi and Sb. Analysis of other materials such as silica and white stone is generally covered in standard books. 2. Water-quenched slag: Fe, SiO2, Cu, CaO. 3. Semi-liquid copper: Cu, Fe, SiO2, CaO. The frequency of sample preparation should be determined based on actual conditions. The frequency of driving is a bit higher just now. There will be much less if production is normal. Additionally, I’d like to introduce you to a book titled \"Modern Heavy Metal Metallurgical Analysis.\" It should be of great help to you.
Copper ore metallurgy or crude copper refining?
