The oxidation kinetics of molten Cu2S baths, during top lancing with oxygen/nitrogen (argon) mixtures, have been investigated as a function of oxygen partial
pressure (0.2 to 0.78), bath temperature (1200 °C to 1300 °C), gas flow rate (1 to 4 L/min), and bath mixing. Surface-tension-driven
flows (the Marangoni effect) were observed both visually and photographically. Thus, the oxidation of molten Cu2S was found to progress in two distinct stages, the kinetics of which are limited by the mass transfer of oxygen in the gas
phase to the melt surface. During the primary stage, the melt is partially desulfurized while oxygen dissolves in the liquid
sulfide. Upon saturation of the melt with oxygen, the secondary stage commences in which surface and bath reactions proceed
to generate copper and SO2 electrochemically. A mathematical model of the reaction kinetics has been formulated and tested against the measurements.
The results of this study shed light on the process kinetics of the copper blow in a Peirce-Smith converter or Mitsubishi
reactor. 相似文献

Molten copper with 0.74 wt pct sulfur content was desulfurized at 1523 K by bubbling Ar-O2 gas through a submerged nozzle. The reaction rate was significantly influenced not only by the oxygen partial pressure but
also by the gas flow rate. Little evolution of SO2 gas was observed in the initial 10 seconds of the oxidation; however, this was followed by a period of high evolution rate
of SO2 gas. The partial pressure of SO2 gas decreased with further progress of the desulfurization. The effect of the immersion depth of the submerged nozzle was
negligible. The overall reaction is decomposed to two elementary reactions: the desulfurization and the dissolution rate of
oxygen. The assumptions were made that these reactions are at equilibrium and that the reaction rates are controlled by mass
transfer rates within and around the gas bubble. The time variations of sulfur and oxygen contents in the melt and the SO2 partial pressure in the off-gas under various bubbling conditions were well explained by the mathematical model combined
with the reported thermodynamic data of these reactions. Based on the present model, it was anticipated that the oxidation
rate around a single gas bubble was mainly determined by the rate of gas-phase mass transfer, but all oxygen gas blown into
the melt was virtually consumed to the desulfurization and dissolution reactions before it escaped from the melt surface. 相似文献

The influence of oxygen on the surface tension of liquid copper has been determined by the sessile drop technique. The surface tension of pure liquid copper at 1108 °C is found to be equal to 1.320 ± 0.015 N/m. The effect of oxygen is investigated for partial pressures of oxygen ranging from 10?13 to 5 X 10?6 atm. The surface activity of oxygen is deduced to equal 3200 ± 600 N/m and the saturation adsorption to equal 5.72 X 10"6 mole/m2, which corresponds to a saturation area of 29 ±5Å2 per adsorbed oxygen atom. The adsorption of oxygen on liquid copper is consistent with the formation at the metal surface of a two-dimensional compound of stoichiometry Cu3O. It is also concluded that equivalent attractive forces operate between neighboring adsorbed atoms. 相似文献

Chemical thermodynamic calculations show that selenium removal from copper melts using sodium carbonate (soda ash) is only
effective under reducing conditions. Reducing conditions can be generated by carbon, but even more effectively by calcium
carbide which has not been used previously for such a purpose. To clarify the kinetics of these multiphase, multicomponent
reactions, various mixtures were either placed on top of or injected into 70 kg heats of molten copper. The following reagents
were found to be effective in removing selenium: soda ash-graphite mixtures, calcium carbide, and calcium carbide-soda ash
mixtures, in increasing order of effectiveness. Experiments were also performed with synthetic blister copper containing oxygen,
selenium, tellurium, bismuth, nickel, silver, and lead. As expected from the thermodynamic analysis, only the first three
of these elements were removed. A mathematical model was developed to describe the diffusion-controlled reaction kinetics
of selenium and oxygen removal at calcium carbide particle interfaces. Very good agreement between the model and experiments
was achieved for the reaction paths of selenium and oxygen when 35 pct of the particles were in contact with the melt. The
utilization of powder varied over a wide range (0 to 10 pct), depending on the selenium and oxygen contents. The industrial
implications of this work are discussed in terms of multielement removal, refractory erosion, temperature loss, and reagent
utilization. 相似文献

Measurements of oxygen activity in molten copper, Cu-Sn, and Cu-Ag alloys at 1135°C have been made utilizing the solid-state electrolyte technique. The activity coefficient of oxygen in molten copper at low oxygen levels (<0.1 pet) was found to be 0.12. The interaction parameters of silver and tin on oxygen were found to be ε O Ag = 4.52 and ε O Sn =-10.5. Comparison of experimental data with solution models revealed that the behavior of oxygen in Cu-O-Ag alloys is in accordance with predictions of Alcock and Richardson’s quasichemical model when a coordination number between 1 and 4 is assumed, depending on the silver and oxygen content. Furthermore, agreement with Belton’s quasichemical model based on the assumption of Ag-O dipoles serves to strengthen the evidence for the existence of Ag-O species in solution. The behavior of oxygen in the Cu-O-Sn system also shows better agreement with the quasichemical model than with the random model, with low coordination numbers favored in dilute tin solutions, increasing to larger values in Cu-60 Sn solutions. 相似文献

Thermodynamic calculations for the volatilization of arsenic and lead from molten copper at high oxygen level were performed
using available thermodynamic data. An experimental setup was built in order to validate the predictions. Three experimental
tests confirmed both the moderate volatility for Pb species (Pb+PbO) and the extremely low vapor pressure of As-O species,
even at high oxygen and arsenic levels in molten copper. 相似文献

The kinetics of copper cementation on pure iron substrates were studied using a rotating disc geometry. The effect of rotational speed of the iron disc, copper ion concentration, hydrogen ion concentration, and temperature on the kinetic response was investigated. The range of each parameter studied was selected with some consideration for commercial operations for copper recovery using iron as the precipitant metal. The optimum values of each parameter for maximum cementation rate were determined. At low temperatures (10–30°C), an experimental activation energy of 22.89 kcal mol?1 was calculated indicating that the system is strongly controlled by a surface reaction mechanism or pore diffusion process. At high temperatures (30–60°C), an experimental activation energy of 7.94 kcal mol?1 was obtained which shows that the system may be controlled by both diffusion and surface reaction mechanisms. The deposits obtained were pure copper and not a copper-iron alloy. The total iron consumption, presented as can factor, was around 1.0.The structural characteristics of the resultant deposits were studied with the help of a scanning electron microscope. The structure and morphology of the deposits were analyzed in conjunction with their respective specific rate constants. A change in the surface roughness of the rotating disc and hence in the effective deposition surface area as a result of modification to the deposit morphology obtained for different experimental conditions was found to be the major reason for variations in the reaction rate. For the experimental conditions employed in this study, most of the deposits seen were bulbous or botryoidal crystal masses of different degrees of texture and size. 相似文献

Reactions of Cu2S with Cu2O, CuS with Cu2O and CuS with CuO in the molten state were examined in the presence of one atmosphere of argon at 1200°C. A rate law of the
form,r
SO2 =kNSNO was applicable for each reaction system studied. Comparison of the rate constants for the systems, under conditions of similar
initial mole fraction of sulfur to mole fraction of oxygen ratios, showed that Cu2O was much more reactive than CuO in its reaction with copper sulfides. These results are incorporated in a mechanism in which
Cu2O reacts with the sulfide in the rate determining step. Experiments carried out in the presence of oxygen indicated the importance
of a CuO-Cu2O equilibrium in the overall reaction mechanism. 相似文献

A new operation method for the oxygen lance of an electric arc furnace (EAF) was proposed, meeting the simultaneous demand for low oxygen flow rate and high stirring power in a particular smelting stage. When the oxygen flow rate needs to be reduced, the stirring power of the jet can be improved by increasing oxygen temperature properly. Free supersonic jet characteristics at different flow rates and stagnation temperatures were studied by numerical simulation and validated by a jet measurement experiment. The results showed that the designed Mach number can be maintained by coupling adjustment of flow rate and stagnation temperature. Meanwhile, a three-phase, full-scaled numerical model for a commercial 75t EAF with three oxygen lances on the side-wall was established to study the fluid flow in the molten bath. The velocity distribution, cavity profile and total kinetic energy of the EAF bath induced by the impingement of supersonic jets onto the liquid bath were discussed and compared. It was found that the fluid flow characteristics of the EAF molten bath can be improved even if the oxygen flow rate was reduced as long as the oxygen temperature could be increased reasonably. 相似文献

A plasma torch and refractory-lined furnace with a 10 kg capacity were used to study the kinetics of nitrogen absorption and
desorption in molten iron. In this study, melts containing both oxygen and sulfur were used. In accord with earlier studies,
a limiting rate constant of 0.020 cm/s-pct was observed at high oxygen and/or sulfur contents. At lower oxygen and/or sulfur
contents, the measured desorption rates are smaller than most of the reported values and appear to be limited by mixed melt,
mass transfer chemical control. Absorption of nitrogen from the plasma arc is limited by mass transfer in the melt. The dominant
form of convection in the vicinity of jet impingement is surface tension driven flow. The reaction N(g)=N(pct) appears to
be responsible for the enhanced nitrogen content of the melt. The nitrogen content of a melt in equilibrium with the atomic
nitrogen content of an Ar-5 pct N2 plasma jet was determined to be 0.30 wt pct or thirty times the equilibrium value.

An amount of 80 mg of molten copper matte of a pseudo-ternary Cu2S-FeS-Fe system contained in a slender alumina sample tube was oxidized at 1503 and 1533 K in a mixed O2-Ar gas stream and the oxidation path was followed, comparing the overall rate of oxidation with the gaseous diffusion in
the sample tube. The following successive reactions were found to be controlled by gas diffusion. Initially, Fe was oxidized
to form FeO. After the melt composition reached a pseudo-ternary Cu2S-FeS-FeO system, FeS was oxidized to form FeO. As the amount of FeO increased, Fe3O4 was also formed and subsequently Cu was produced by the oxidation of Cu2S. In the latter stage, the Cu was oxidized, and the final product under the condition of gas diffusion control was composed
of Cu2O, Fe3O4, and CuFeO2. On the other hand, the rate of formation of Fe2O3, CuO, and CuFe2O4 was much slower and they were not formed during the oxidation duration where the overall rate of oxidation was controlled
by gas diffusion. 相似文献

In recent years, the concentration of the group Va elements such as arsenic, antimony, and bismuth has been increasing in
copper concentrates. The elimination and recovery of these elements during the copper smelting process have presented serious
problems. While the distribution of minor elements has been studied extensively, very little knowledge exists on the activities
of these minor elements in copper mattes. Consequently, in this study the activities of arsenic were measured to determine
activity coefficients of arsenic in the dilute solution region of molten copper, in Cu2S saturated copper, and in copper mattes equilibrated with copper at 1423 K by a mass spectrometric Knudsen effusion technique.

The settling of suspended metal and sulfide droplets in liquid metallurgical, slags can be affected by electric fields. The
migration of droplets due to electrocapillary motion phenomena may be used to enhance the recovery of suspended matte/metal
droplets and thereby to increase the recovery of pay metals. An experimental technique was developed for the purpose of measuring
the effect of electric fields on the settling rate of metallic drops in liquid slags. Copper drops suspended in CaO−SiO2−Al2O3−Cu2O slags were found to migrate toward the cathode. Electric fields can increase the settling rate of 5-mm-diameter copper drops
3 times or decrease the settling until levitation by reversal of the electric field. The enhanced settling due to electric
fields decreases with increasing Cu2O contents in the slag. 相似文献
