SlagCleaning

Direct Smelting: Matte/Slag/Cu equilibrium- Can all three phases Matte/Slag/Cu be in equilibriu m?

- Operating variables:

• Temperature

• Oxygen pressure

• Fe/SiO2 ratio in the Slag

• Amount of CaO in the Slag

- Subjects to examine:

2010MontrealOxides and Pyrometallurgy 3

• Losses of Cu into Slag

• Distribution of minor elements, Pb and Zn, among Matte, Slag and Cu

- Chemical system: Cu-Fe-Si-O-S + Ca-Pb-Zn

- Does this task make sense?

- At T=const there are 4-2=2 degrees of freedom => fix P(O2), vary Fe/SiO2

- Study the effect of CaO at constant amount of CaO in the Slag

- Pb(Slag)/Pb(Cu) will approach a constant as the amount of Pb approaches zero

FTmisc - FACT miscellaneous databases

- the system S-Fe-Ni-Co-Cr :

Liquid sulfide [FTmisc-MAT2] – from pure metal to pure sulfur

Solid sulfide phases

- the matte smelting system S-Cu-Fe-Ni-Co-Pb-Zn-As :

Liquid matte [FTmisc-MATT] – liquid sulfide, does not extend to pure metal.

It is designed for calculation of matte / slag / metal equilibria

Consistent with FToxid-SLAG, FTmisc-CuLQ and FTmisc-PbLQ

2010MontrealOxides and Pyrometallurgy 7

It is not consistent with solid sulfide phases

- Liquid copper or speiss [FTmisc-CuLQ] – Cu-Pb-Zn-As-Fe-Ni-Au-S-O

- Liquid Fe [FTmisc-FeLQ] with dilute solutes Al, B, Bi, C, Ca, Ce, Co, Cr, Mg, Mn, Mo, N, Nb, Ni, O, P, Pb, S, Sb, Si, Te, Ti, V, W, Zn, Zr

Oxide Phase Diagrams under Reducing Conditions

- Metal phases must be selected

- Step a bit off an oxide section towards metals

- FSstel is needed to see the right metal phases in equilibrium

2010MontrealOxides and Pyrometallurgy 73

- Metal phases often have only a minor effect on oxide phase boundaries

- If you do not have FSstel or SGTE database for meta l phases, select metals from Fact53

- Do not forget the gas phase
