  1. 1. Mineralogical influence on leaching behaviour of steelmaking slags : a laboratory investigation

    Author : Fredrik Engström; Pekka Taskinen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : The Swedish steelmaking industry produces large amounts of by-products. In 2008, the total amount of slag produced reached approximately 1,300,000 metric tons, of which 20% was deposited. READ MORE

  2. 2. Slag Cleaning of a Reduced Iron Silicate Slag by Settling : Influence of Process Parameters and Slag Modification on Copper Content

    Author : Jenny Isaksson; Caisa Samuelsson; Andreas Lennartsson; Anton Andersson; Pekka Taskinen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Copper losses; matte; speiss; fayalite slag; temperature; settling time; solid phases; industrial trial; CaO modification; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : During the pyrometallurgical extraction of copper, a significant part of the copper is lost with discard slag, which decreases profits, overall copper recovery, and efficiency of raw material usage. Smelting furnace slag usually has a copper content that is close to or higher than that of copper ores. READ MORE

  3. 3. Investigations of Stabilization of Cr in Spinel Phase in Chromium-Containing Slags

    Author : Galina Jelkina Albertsson; Lidong Teng; Pekka Taskinen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cr2O3 containing slags; gas-slag equilibrium; chromium partition; spinel;

    Abstract : The influence of basicity, heat treatment as well as different oxygen partial pressures on the phase relationships in the CaO-MgO-SiO2-Cr2O3 slags was studied with a view to control the precipitation of Cr-spinel in the slag phase. The equilibrium phases in CaO-MgO-SiO2-Cr2O3 slag system in the range on 1673-1873 K have been investigated under low oxygen partial pressure as well as in as air atmosphere. READ MORE

  4. 4. Wise Process Routes for Varying Feedstock in Base Metal Extraction : Modelling of a Peirce-Smith Converter and Investigation of Buildup Formation in an Electric Smelting Furnace

    Author : Andreas Lennartsson; Pekka Taskinen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Copper, like silver and gold, is one of the metals that are known to have been worked by some of the oldest civilisations on record. It is used forits unique properties such as corrosion resistance, good workability, high thermal conductivity and attractive appearance. READ MORE

  5. 5. Roasting of Cu-rich complex concentrates - A mineralogical investigation

    Author : Pande Nishant Prasad; Caisa Samuelsson; Andreas Lennartsson; Pekka Taskinen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Copper has assumed importance as a metal which is essential for realization of a sustainable modern society. Demand for copper is sharply increasing, and a supply shortfall is shortly anticipated. Such a scenario could adversely affect some of the major transformations directed toward reversal of climate change. READ MORE
