New Processes to Treat Anode Slime and Other Smelter Improvements

Abstract:

During efforts to solve common technical challenges to the comprehensive recovery of rare precious metals associated with copper smelting, Xiangguang Copper (XG) independently developed a new process to treat anode slime using technology that captures precious metal using bismuth. This paper focuses on the introduction and application of this technology for capturing precious metals with bismuth. It also discusses silver electrolysis at high current density and bismuth recovery from precious metals slag. The new process shows good adaptability of raw materials, elimination of lead pollution, low energy consumption, environmental protection and high comprehensive recovery rate of metals, which promotes the technological progress of comprehensive recovery and utilization of associated resources in copper smelting process.
