For the ores Cu 2 S and ZnS , balanced equations for the roasting are: 2 Cu 2 S + 3 O 2 → 2 Cu 2 O + 2 SO 2 2 ZnS + 3 O 2 → 2 ZnO + 2 SO 2. The gaseous product of sulfide roasting, sulfur dioxide (SO 2) is often used to produce sulfuric acid. Many sulfide minerals contain other components such as arsenic that are released into the environment.
Extractive metallurgy is a branch of metallurgical engineering wherein process and methods of extraction of metals from their natural mineral deposits are studied. The field is a materials science, covering all aspects of the types of ore, washing, concentration, separation, chemical processes and extraction of pure metal and their alloying to suit various applications, sometimes for direct ...
The converting process occurs in a converter. Two kinds of converters are widely used: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal converters of the Peirce-Smith type (which are an improvement of the Manhès-David converter ) prevail in the metallurgy of non-ferrous metals. Such a converter is a horizontal barrel lined with refractory material inside.
Physical metallurgy is one of the two main branches of the scientific approach to metallurgy, which considers in a systematic way the physical properties of metals and alloys. It is basically the fundamentals and applications of the theory of phase transformations in metal and alloys. [ 1 ]
The main types of metal recovery processes are electrolysis, gaseous reduction, and precipitation. For example, a major target of hydrometallurgy is copper, which is conveniently obtained by electrolysis. Cu 2+ ions are reduced to Cu metal at low potentials, leaving behind contaminating metal ions such as Fe 2+ and Zn 2+.
