Research on Reducing Direct Current Consumption of Copper Electrical Product

Abstract:

The main cost in the production of copper with leaching - extraction - electrical product method come from raw ore, electricity consumption and H₂SO₄ consumption. In this paper, methods of reducing direct current consumption of copper electrical product were determined. With high standard anode plate, Shorten appropriately hemimorphic spacing, controlling suitable current density and electric fluid temperature, fluid composition control reasonable electricity, short circuit and earth leakage was avoided and copper electrical product power consumption effect was highly reduced.
