Iron grain growth during deep reduction roasting is important for iron enrichment from copper slag (CS) through magnetic separation. In this work, a novel method of additive-free activation roasting, including oxidation and subsequent reduction roasting, was proposed to increase the iron grain size, then the iron was extracted by magnetic …



The Fe-Cu alloy, that is generated at the bottom of an electric furnace (EF) in a zinc pyrometallurgical smelter, is considered as a kind of solid waste. To separate the copper and iron from this waste, an innovative technology that uses selective oxidation smelting in the absence of SiO 2 is proposed herein. The constituents, phases and …

pyrometallurgy, extraction and purification of metals by processes involving the application of heat.The most important operations are roasting, smelting, and refining.Roasting, or heating in air without fusion, transforms sulfide ores into oxides, the sulfur escaping as sulfur dioxide, a gas.Smelting (q.v.) is the process used in blast furnaces to reduce iron …







General Principles of Production of Metals by Pyrometallurgy In pyrometallurgy, metals are extracted by converting sulfides into oxides and then reducing oxides into metals, using carbon or carbon monoxide as reducing agents. The reactions for lead, zinc, and iron are given below. The reader is cautioned that the following chemical reactions are

In conventional pyrometallurgy, a reducing agent is used in conjunction with the decomposition reaction (1), both to provide the necessary thermodynamic driving force, as well ... as well as a separating agent to remove iron. Upon melting ...



Metal recovery methods from CS can be mainly divided into pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. Traditional Pyrometallurgy methods include using coke as a reducing agent to separate and recover Fe in oxide state ...

Industrial grade pyrometallurgy is usually direct put the WPCBs containing 5%–40% copper into the blast furnace, and the product is black copper containing 70%–85% copper. The black copper is then poured into the converter, which makes an oxidizing slag of Pb, Zn, and Sn, and the copper that contains 95% copper content.





Pyrometallurgy is a metallurgical process used to extract metals or their compounds from metallurgical raw materials or to refine them at high temperature. ... pyrometallurgy is used only for the main refining process and other processes are adopted for refining (such as copper and nickel), or some isolated pyrometallurgy processes …











As an important secondary resource with abundant platinum group metals (PGMs), spent catalysts demand recycling for both economic and environmental benefits. This article reviews the main pyrometallurgical processes for PGM recovery from spent catalysts. Existing processes, including smelting, vaporization, and sintering processes, …



This paper proposes an innovative carbothermal reduction roasting low-carbon redox refining process for recovering valuable metals, including copper, zinc, nickel, tin and lead, from electroplating sludge. First, the valuable metals are volatilized into the flue gas by carbothermal reduction roasting. At a reduction temperature of 1473 K, a carbon …

The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight recent research related to pyrometallurgy to face current challenges in metal production. ... The copper and iron contents of the reduced slag are lower than 0.1% and 0.5%, respectively, at optimum condition. The new process has the advantages of low energy consumption, low flux addition and high ...





Advantages of Pyrometallurgy. Since Pyrometallurgy is a high-temperature technique, the reaction is quick. As a result, more metal is produced. The cost of reducing agents and raw materials is cheap. The separation of liquid metal and slag aids in the metal extraction process. The pyrometallurgy process extracts metals such as Fe, Zn, …
