Toward Zero Waste Mining: Circular Economy of Copper Slags. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chall
Mining and metal extraction processes generate over 90% of global waste. With the rapid increase in population and urbanization, the demand for geotechnical applications and construction materials constantly increases and can absorb the entire quantity of slags generated.

The Behaviour of Low Arsenic Copper Anodes at High Current Density in Electrorefining [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2023
Arsenic is the only beneficial impurity for copper electrorefining through inhibiting anode passivation and the formation of floating slimes. The behaviour of copper anodes with different content of arsenic were studied at high current density (>280 A/m ...

A Theoretical Model for Metal Cation Reduction in the Flow Field and Its Application to Copper Electrorefining

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2022
This paper studies the kinetic process of cation discharge in the flow field of a forced-flowing electrolyte during copper electrorefining. Through electrochemical methods such as rotating disk electrodes, linear sweep voltammetry curves and cathodic ...

Challenges for development of technology for prevention of anode passivation during electrorefining of low-grade copper

open access: yesJournal of MMIJ, 2020
Over the past years, the significance of recycling Cu and its accompanying metals has been increasing. However, the frequency of anode passivation increases during the electrorefining of copper when the copper anode contains a high concentration of ...

Going Beyond Silver in Ethylene Epoxidation with First‐Principles Catalyst Screening

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 135, Issue 31, August 1, 2023., 2023
Using computational screening of the periodic table for ethylene epoxidation catalysts, Ag/CuPb, Ag/CuCd, and Ag/CuTl were identified as superior catalysts. The inclusion of surface oxidation, side reactions and epoxide decomposition is shown to be paramount to avoid erroneous predictions.

A sustainable approach to replace bleed stream in electrical refining of copper

open access: yesMaterials Letters: X, 2022
Despite extensive studies on electrorefining to remove impurities from copper production units, bleeding electrolytes is the most popular method for controlling impurities due to low operating costs.

Distribution and Control of Arsenic during Copper Converting and Refining

open access: yesMetals, 2022
Arsenic content in copper concentrates is continuously increasing worldwide. It is desirable to remove arsenic from copper in the earlier stages of copper making due to the deposition of arsenic to cathode copper during the electrorefining process ...
