Problems solved by technology

For complex copper concentrates produced by remote mines with inconvenient transportation and small production scale, wet pressure leaching technology is also used to recover copper. Simple process and low investment are the main advantages of wet copper smelting, but electrowinning High power consumption, high production costs, and hidden dangers of wastewater pollution are the main shortcomings of hydrometallurgy

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for smelting low-sulfur copper concentrate, relating to copper concentrate, in particular to a method for producing rough copper or rough copper alloy from low-sulfur copper sulfide concentrate or copper sulfide concentrate comprising a part of copper oxide. The method is characterized by comprising the following smelting processes of: mixing sulfur or pyrite into the copper concentrate; performing boiling oxidizing roasting to produce calcine; performing reduction smelting on the calcine through an ore-smelting electric furnace to obtain rough copper or rough copper alloy; treating flue gas produced during the boiling oxidizing roasting and smelting of the ore-smelting electric furnace through a waste heat boiler, electrical dust collection and cloth bag dust collection; and feeding the treated flue gas into an acid making system to produce sulfuric acid. By adopting the method, the copper sulfide concentrate with low sulfur content and high silicon content or the copper sulfide concentrate comprising a part of the copper oxide, which cannot be subjected to self-heating matte smelting, can be treated; and the method has the advantages of a short process flow, less investment and a short construction period and is suitable for building small-scale copper smelting enterprises at electric power-rich areas.

Description

technical field [0001] A method for smelting low-sulfur copper concentrates, relating to a method for producing blister copper or blister copper alloys from copper concentrates, especially low-sulfur copper sulfide concentrates or copper sulfide concentrates containing partially oxidized copper. technical background [0002] Copper is a non-ferrous metal of strategic significance in the development of the world economy. It has become a bulk non-ferrous metal product second only to metal aluminum. It is widely used in construction, electronics, transportation, machinery manufacturing, daily consumer goods, aerospace, etc. , national defense and many other fields. With the acceleration of my country's industrialization process and the development of urbanization, copper extraction, smelting and processing production capacity has expanded rapidly, copper processing capacity has exceeded 10 million tons, and copper consumption has accounted for 40% of the world's total. Various...
