Abstract
An anode refinement method for high-sulfur content coarse copper: while high-sulfur coarse copper liquid from a flash converting furnace flows to the anode furnace through a chute, inert gas is continuously added, to stir the copper liquid and improve discharging of the SOproduced from reaction of the sulfur with oxygen in the liquid and the oxygen absorbed from the atmosphere, so as to remove more than 90% sulfur in the coarse copper liquid. After the coarse copper liquid is fully led to the anode furnace, operations of low-oxidization and low-reduction, non-oxidization and low-reduction or cancel of reduction-oxidization are conducted according to the sulfur content in the copper liquid. The method can resolve the shortages in the fire-refining process, save working time, notably improve production efficiency and capacity, save energy, and settle the pollution problem of black smoke in the atmosphere.
