Electrometallurgy and Environmental Hydrometallurgy, Volume 2 - Extraction of Copper at Elevated Feed Concentrations

کتاب «Electrometallurgy and Environmental Hydrometallurgy, Volume 2 - Extraction of Copper at Elevated Feed Concentrations» در حوزه «متالورژی مس» به «استخراج حلالی مس» می‌پردازد. مباحث اصلی آن شامل لیچینگ و تصفیه محلول، استخراج حلالی و تبادل یونی، الکترووینینگ، رسوب‌دهی و مدیریت پسماند، استخراج حلالی و فرآوری هیدرومتالورژیکی است. برای انتخاب فرایند، طراحی واحد، تحلیل بهره‌برداری و رفع عیب در استخراج و پالایش مس کاربرد دارد.

A number of flowsheets have been designed and operated, or are currently being considered, to extract copper from leach solutions having much more copper than the 4 g/L levels typically found in heap leach liquors. Dealing with these solutions has required that the envelope for “normal” copper solvent extraction be pushed beyond the usually considered limits. This paper reviews some of the issues faced in three pilot plant circuits that were operated by SGS Lakefield Research to produce cathode copper from solutions containing 8 to 20 g/L Cu. The primary objective was to maximize copper extraction using one solvent extraction circuit.
