Biologically Assisted Copper Secondary Sulfide Ore ...

Copper recovery in solution, along with a high redox potential, was established faster in the mesophilic column but leveled off quickly over time. Copper extraction showed that the 6 g/l chloride column has the highest metallurgical performance (83% CuT) with 4 extra points of copper recovery over the 1.5 g/L and 3 g/l Cl-columns. These results are a good indication that comparable copper recovery rates –to the

How to Process Copper Ore: Beneficiation Methods

2020-10-27  Secondary copper sulfide ore is easy to oxidize and more difficult to float than original copper ore. As for the grinding and floating process, it is more advantageous to adopt the stage grinding and floating process for refractory copper ore, such as the re-grinding and re-separation of coarse concentrate, re-grinding and re-separation of bulk concentrate, and separate treatment of medium ore.

An econometric model of the U.S. secondary copper

Abstract In this paper, a theoretical model of secondary recovery is developed that integrates microeconomic theories of production and cost with a dynamic model of scrap generation and accumulation. The model equations are estimated for the U.S. secondary copper industry and used to assess the impacts that various policies and future events have on copper recycling rates.
