Copper electrorefining mainly produce LME Cu-CATH-1 copper cathode and byproduct anode slime from copper anode. Metalcess develops mini scale copper ER from 1T/d copper ER system with modular design/easy installation and saving installation instruction cost.

There are numerous viable approaches to the treatment of anode slimes from electrolytic copper refining. Of particular interest in the treatment of slimes are the behavior and recovery of selenium. The understanding of the process chemistry involved in the treatment of anode slimes should be aided considerably by recent work on the formation and characterization of slimes.

The refinery production of copper in 2015 was estimated to be 22.9 million tonnes [].In 2014, the refinery production was 22.2 Mt, of which approximately 14.2 Mt was primary electrorefined and fire-refined and 4.1 Mt electrowon, and secondary production was 3.9 Mt [].Based on U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) dataseries [] during 1990–2011, the increase of primary copper production was 0.39 Mt ...

Oct 01, 2015· 1. Introduction. Copper anode slimes are the by-products in copper electrorefining which are periodically collected from the deposition cells and processed for the recovery of metal values such as Cu, Ni, Pb, Sb, Sn, Se, Te, Au, Ag and Pt (Liu et al., 2014).Some pretreatment technologies such as sulfation roasting-leaching, oxidative sulfuric acid leaching and chlorination leaching are ...

A method for separating tellurium includes separating and recovering tellurium (Te) from a dissolved solution containing the tellurium using a solvent extraction by an extractant, which contains one selected from a group consisting of tributyl phosphate (TBP), tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (TEHP) and a combination thereof. The method may separate and recover the tellurium as a high-priced ...

Jan 01, 2018· Hoffmann (1989) noted that tellurium in anode slimes is present as intermetallic compound of copper, silver and gold such as Cu 2 Te and (Ag, Au)Te 2 with tellurium concentration of 2–10%. Shibasaki et al., 1992, Knockaert, 2005 report typical concentrations of tellurium in the copper anode slimes from different producers .
