From Ore to Cathode: An Overview of Copper Beneficiation Processes
Overview The copper hydrometallurgical process begins with crushing and grinding the raw copper oxide ore to achieve a fine particle size, making the copper minerals accessible for leaching. The ore is then mixed with an acidic solution in the leaching stage, where sulfuric acid dissolves the copper into a solution. After leaching, the copper-rich solution […]
Corundum Slurry Pump
Introduction The corundum slurry pump was developed to address the challenges of harsh working conditions in hydrometallurgical ore processing, where conventional metal pumps made from high-chromium cast iron or duplex stainless steel suffer from poor corrosion and wear resistance. These pumps face rapid impeller wear, reduced efficiency, and short lifespans when conveying corrosive media with […]
