- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a flash smelting furnace; FIG. (a) and (b) are diagrams illustrating the operation of a flash smelting furnace. (a) and (b) are schematic diagrams of a bottom blowing furnace.
- 1 is a perspective view of a smelting furnace according to an embodiment; FIG. 1 is a side view of a smelting furnace; FIG. It is a figure which illustrates the flow around a smelting furnace.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a flash smelting furnace 200.
- the flash smelting furnace 200 has a structure in which a shaft portion 201, a settling portion 202, and an uptake portion 203 are arranged in order.
- a concentrate burner 204 is provided on the upper portion of the shaft portion 201 .
- FIGS. 2(a) and 2(b) are diagrams illustrating the operation of the flash furnace 200.
- FIG. 1 powdery solid raw materials such as copper concentrate and solvent are charged into the shaft portion 201 from the concentrate burner 204, and the oxygen-containing gas is refined. It is blown into the shaft portion 201 from the ore burner 204 .
- the copper concentrate undergoes an oxidation reaction and drops as a droplet shower to become molten metal.
- the molten metal separates into a mat 205 and a slag 206 at the bottom of the shaft portion 201, as illustrated in FIG. 2(b).
- Air or oxygen-enriched air can be used as the oxygen-containing gas.
- Oxygen-enriched air is air that has a higher concentration of oxygen than the natural atmosphere.
- the mat 205 is introduced into the converter from the extraction port through a gutter, a container for holding molten metal, and the like.
- the slag 206 is introduced into the smelting furnace through a gutter or the like from the withdrawal port.
- a solid-gas reaction occurs in which the dried powdery solid raw material reacts with the oxygen-containing gas. Because the powdery solid raw material with a large surface area and the oxygen-containing gas are supplied into the smelting furnace under the condition that they are rapidly mixed through a concentrate burner or the like, and the powdery solid raw material and the oxygen-containing gas come into instant and easy contact. , the solid-powder raw material is instantaneously oxidized in this solid-gas reaction. In addition, an oxygen-containing gas is constantly supplied to the powdery solid raw material. Therefore, this solid-gas reaction has a high reaction rate and high reaction efficiency.
- the shaft portion 201 is suitable for large-scale processing of dried powdery solid raw materials, and has the highest level of processing capacity per unit volume among smelting furnaces.
- the slag 206 may be in a state of peroxide, and magnetite or the like may be generated, which causes an increase in copper loss.
- FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b) are schematic diagrams of the bottom blowing furnace 300.
- FIG. FIG. 3(a) is a cross-sectional view of the bottom blowing furnace 300 viewed from the side.
- FIG. 3(b) is a cross-sectional view of the bottom blowing furnace 300 viewed from the end face.
- the bottom blowing furnace 300 has a substantially cylindrical shape.
- a charging part 301 for charging a charge is provided on the ceiling of the bottom blowing furnace 300 .
- the matte 302 and the slag 303 are produced by oxidizing and melting the charge while entraining it in the stirred molten metal.
- a slug 303 floats on the mat 302 .
- a charge newly charged from the charging section 301 drops against these molten metals.
- the bottom blowing furnace 300 gas-liquid or solid-liquid reactions occur.
- the charged material floating on the molten metal is roasted by the reacted gas blown out from below the surface of the molten metal, and the impurities contained in the charged material volatilize before being melted. . That is, gasification and volatilization of impurities are likely to occur. Therefore, the bottom blowing furnace 300 is suitable for processing ore containing many impurities.
- the raw material is dropped into the molten metal, it is suitable not only for processing dry powder raw materials, but also for processing undried powder raw materials and non-powder raw materials as in the flash smelting furnace.
- the raw material that has fallen into the molten metal is caught in the molten metal and reacts due to the molten metal agitation effect of the oxygen gas for reaction blown into the molten metal, mainly the mat layer, from the lance 304 .
- the oxygen can be effectively used for oxidizing the matte, making it easy to suppress peroxidation of the slag.
- stirring the molten metal makes it difficult for highly viscous compounds, which are mainly made up of peroxides with a high melting point, to stabilize in the furnace. Even if the slag has poor fluidity, it can be easily discharged from the furnace by stirring the molten metal.
- gas-liquid and solid-liquid reactions are mass transfer rate limited and contact between the reacting oxygen-containing gas and the entire melt is not instantaneous.
- the drying of the water content in the raw materials also determines the rate of the reaction. Therefore, since these reactions have lower reaction rates and lower reaction efficiencies than the solid-gas reaction in the flash smelting furnace 200, the bottom blowing furnace 300 is not suitable for mass processing of the charged material.
- the processing capacity of the smelting furnace is inferior to that of the flash smelting furnace.
- the bottom blowing furnace 300 when the bubbles rising in the molten metal reach the surface of the molten metal, the film of the molten metal covering the surface of the bubbles bursts and splashes are likely to occur, and the splashes scatter in the exhaust gas passage and the waste heat recovery boiler. Then, it sticks and clogs gas passages, or adheres to boiler water tubes and reduces heat transfer efficiency. Poor discharge and production impact are major operational drawbacks.
- the bottom blowing furnace 300 although undried raw materials can be processed, the moisture concentration in the exhaust gas rises, and the acid dew point temperature of the SO 3 gas contained in the exhaust gas rises. Equipment damage due to acid corrosion in heat recovery boilers, electrostatic precipitators, etc. is also a problem.
- Table 1 summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of flash smelting furnaces and the advantages and disadvantages of bath smelting.

- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the smelting furnace 100.
- FIG. FIG. 5 is a side view of the smelting furnace 100.

Secondary materials are recycled materials containing precious metals, valuables and copper, and repeated materials are materials such as dust and neutralized slag generated in the smelting process. Both reactive and non-reactive raw materials can be charged.
- the matte of the second charge is air-crushed mat obtained by air-crushing or water-granulating the mat 60 discharged from the slag cleaning furnace 110 in FIG. does not matter.
- the wrought copper slag is air-crushed slag or water-granulated slag obtained by air-crushing the slag 70 discharged from the wrought copper furnace 120 of FIG.
