Computer model of copper smelting process and distribution behaviors of accessory elements

摘要: A computer model has been developed to simulate the distribution behaviors of Ni, Co, Sn, Pb, Zn, As, Sb, Bi, Au and Ag in copper smelting process. The assumes that furnace is thermodynamic equilibrium. As many as 21 elements (Cu, S, Fe, Au, Ag, O, N, C, H, Ca, Mg, Al, Si) 73 compounds are considered. This accounts for physical entrainment melts. predictions by present compared with known commercial data from Guixi Smelter China. Horne Canada Naoshima Japan. agreements between excellent, so can be used monitor optimize actual industrial operations smelting. It applicable simulation almost all pyrometallurgical processes.
