Valves and pumps for copper concentrates production
Increasing the efficiency of copper concentrates production, smelting and electrolysis is possible by carefully selecting the optimal valves and pumps for each process. The most common copper ore types, copper oxide and copper sulfide, undergo two different refining processes – hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical, respectively.

Our process | Umicore Precious Metals Refining | Umicore
The main processing steps of the Precious Metals Operations are the smelter, the copper leaching and electrowinning plant and the precious metals refinery. The operations are designed in such a way that raw materials can enter the flowsheet at the most optimal process step, determined by their physical aspect, their analytical fingerprint and their (precious metals) value.

Primary Copper Smelting
Copper is produced in the U. S. primarily by pyrometallurgical smelting methods. Pyrometallurgical techniques use heat to separate copper from copper sulfide ore concentrates. Process steps include mining, concentration, roasting, smelting, converting, and finally fire and electrolytic refining. Process Description24 Mining produces ...

copper processing
Roasting, smelting, and converting Once a concentrate has been produced containing copper and other metals of value (such as gold and silver), the next step is to remove impurity elements. In older processes the concentrate, containing between 5 and 10 percent water, is first roasted in a cylindrical, refractorylined furnace of either the hearth or fluidizedbed type.

The Copper Market, Treatment and Refining Charges
· The annual copper smelter benchmark Treatment Charges fell to the lowest level since 2012 to USD per ton for year 2021. This is a strong indiion of the concentrate market tightness. In the early months of 2021, spot Treatment and Refining charges for copper have continued to decline and are at their lowest level since 2012.

Copper
Flash converting closely resembles flash smelting. Flash smelting is a closed process and, consequently, offgas emissions can be efficiently controlled. Flash converting had its first appliion in the expansion and modernization of Kennecott's copper smelter near Salt Lake City, Utah, which was implemented during 199295.
