Copper production in Spain and major projects. According to GlobalData, Spain is the world's fifteenth-largest producer of copper in 2023, with output down by 1.26% on 2022. …
The type of iron smelting that produced blue slag was phased out in the late 19th century, so little to no blue slag is being created these days. Related: How To Cut and Polish Blue Slag. However, some glass companies are creating special slag glass varieties that look similar to true blue slag. Many rockhounds, myself included, would instead ...
Copper slagCopper slag is a major waste produced in pyrometallurgical plants during the smelting and converting operations and has caused heavy environmental contamination. A pyro-hydrometallurgical process for the …

The influence of the ...
According to the former study on smelting slag [4], with adequate high-quality fuel and proper furnace design, most slag with similar content could reach a reasonable softening and melting ...
For this study, a bulk sample of slag was collected from freshly produced final slag at the Boliden Harjavalta smelter. The sample was stored under water in a closed container at 4 °C to minimize air oxidation.An aliquot was dried at 105 °C to determine the water content in order to standardize the concentrations to dry weight basis.The particle size of the sample was 73% …

Metal mobilization from base-metal smelting slag dumps in Sierra Almagrera (Almería, Spain)
Smokestack emissions and slag and liquid waste from metal smelting released directly into the Columbia River contaminated the river and broad upland areas near the Canadian-U.S. border. Slag is an angular, somewhat glassy, industrial waste containing hazardous substances including zinc, lead, copper, and other metals. ...
During the last few decades, the pyrometallurgical processes used for cleaning copper smelting slags have been steadily optimized. The electric furnace or rotary slag-cleaning furnace are now generally used to perform this task, giving a level of copper in discard slag typically in the range of 0.55 wt.% and 1.3 wt.%, with most plants reporting copper losses in …
The abandoned mining district of Linares (South Spain) is marked with waste from the mining and the processing of metal ores that pose an environmental hazard to watercourses.

From Fig. 1a, b, it can be seen that a large number of matte droplets are attached to gas bubbles in the slag phase, accounting for 14.8 and 11.2% of total volumes in BBF and TC slag samples, respectively. However, only 0.2 and 0.4% of matte droplets volume are attached to spinel particles. The statistical results from the as-received slag samples from two different …

Copper smelting slag usually contains 1–6 wt% copper, which can be recovered by pyrometallurgical and flotation processes. However, the tailing slags still consist of 0.3–0.7 wt% Cu and 35 ...
The results of an investigation on copper losses in industrial slag from the Teniente converter (TC) and from the electrical slag cleaning furnace (EF) at the Paipote smelter in Chile are presented.
The slag pile in Anaconda is a byproduct from the town's copper smelting history, and is part of the town's Superfund site. For over a half-century, companies have tried but often failed to ...

Abstract Through the reduction reaction of Fe3O4 and graphite rod, the viscosity of slag was reduced and the settlement of matte in slag was promoted. The reduction of Fe3O4 in copper slag by a graphite rod was studied and the kinetics of the reduction process analyzed. The results show that the content of Fe3O4 decreased with increase in reduction temperature and …

The study area, which is now used for industrial activities, contains a 4–5 m thick unconfined aquifer.The 2 m thick saturated zone is related to levels established by old smelter slags and/or colluvial deposits.The results of pumping tests at a constant flow rate indicate that the aquifer has transmissivities comprised between 20–36 m 2 /day and 3–8 m 2 /day.
Present work focuses on the differences in the performances obtained in the froth flotation of copper smelter slag with multiple collector viz. sodium iso-propyl xanthate (SIPX), sodium di-ethyl dithiophosphate (DTP) and alkyl hydroxamate at various dosages. Flotation tests were carried out using single collectors as well as various mixtures of ...
