Read MoreThe alloy produced in the reduction process can be leached with spent electrolyte from a copper or nickel electrowinning process. Mintek has developed a leaching process that solubilizes the nickel, copper, and cobalt, while rejecting the iron and any sulphur into the solid residue (by decreasing the pH appropriately).

This technology is applicable to the recovery of cobalt from copper reverbatory furnace slags, as well as to the recovery of nickel, cobalt, copper, and platinum group metals from furnace and converter slags in plants ...
Read More2015-9-7 (nickel, copper and cobalt) are recovered as part of the platinum-producing process. The metals are mined from the Bushveld Complex, mainly as sulphide minerals contained in the platinum ores – the Merensky reef, the Platreef and the UG-2 chromitite reef. After mining, the base metals pass through the concentrating, smelting and converting ...

Cobalt has had a number of important uses in society since antiquity, and its principal use has changed dramatically over time. Since at least 2250 BC, cobalt-based pigments (cobalt blue) have been
Read MoreIndustrial grade pyrometallurgy is usually direct put the WPCBs containing 5%–40% copper into the blast furnace, and the product is black copper containing 70%–85% copper. The black copper is then poured into the converter, which makes an oxidizing slag of Pb, Zn, and Sn, and the copper that contains 95% copper content.
Read MoreThe next step is the converting process in the Cu converter by blowing hot air from tuyeres in order to obtain molten Cu matte (Cu–Fe–S) (35%–70% Cu). This step oxidizes iron sulfide and converts copper sulfide to metallic blister Cu (about 98.5% Cu). The last step is anodic Cu production in a furnace (99.5% Cu).
Read MoreAbstract. The pyrometallurgical processing of copper varies worldwide with respect to the charge materials, process, operating parameters, and the physical shape, size, and orientation of the vessel. Plant operations may be either batch, semi-continuous, or fully continuous to produce blister copper or other end product.
Read More2011-7-5 The copper flotation step is inherently inefficient for cobalt, with recoveries typically from 40% for oxides up to 80% for sulphides, so there is a substantial amount of cobalt contained in tailings dams that could be recovered – e.g. the Kolwezi Tailings Project.
Read More2015-9-10 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. 12.3.2 Process Description2-4

Read MoreAs presented in Table 1, the Umicore process is based on the hydrometallurgical treatment of the cobalt, nickel, manganese, copper and iron alloy resulting from the pyrometallurgy step, in order to separate cobalt from nickel, to recover them selectively in order to use them as battery electrode precursor . Thus, cobalt is recovered as an oxide ...
