Environmental Challenges of Copper Concentrates Roasting
摘要
Fluidized bedFluidized bed roastersRoasters (FBR) have been used on copper concentratesCopper concentrate for sulfurSulfur, arsenicArsenic, and carbonCarbon removal. Environmental emissionsEnvironmental emissions associated with those operationsOperation include SO2 and As2O3 capture and stabilizationStabilization, as well as dealing with byproductsByproducts such as hematiteHematite and gypsumGypsum. Here those operationsOperation and their possible emissionEmissions mitigations are considered and compared.
