Book excerpt: Copper has been used for thousands of years. In the centuries, both handicraft and industry have taken advantage of its easy castability and remarkable ductility combined with good mechanical and corrosion resistance. Although its mechanical properties are now well known, the simple f.c.c. structure still makes copper a model material for basic studies of deformation and damage mechanism in metals. On the other hand, its increasing use in many industrial sectors stimulates the development of high-performance and high-efficiency copper-based alloys. After an introduction to classification and casting, this book presents modern techniques and trends in processing copper alloys, such as the developing of lead-free alloys and the role of severe plastic deformation in improving its tensile and fatigue strength. Finally, in a specific section, archaeometallurgy techniques are applied to ancient copper alloys. The book is addressed to engineering professionals, manufacturers and materials scientists.

Download or read book Extractive Metallurgy of Copper written by Mark E. Schlesinger and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extractive Metallurgy of Copper, Sixth Edition, expands on previous editions, including sections on orogenesis and copper mineralogy and new processes for efficiently recovering copper from ever-declining Cu-grade mineral deposits. The book evaluates processes for maintaining concentrate Cu grades from lower grade ores. Sections cover the recovery of critical byproducts (e.g., cesium), worker health and safety, automation as a safety tool, and the geopolitical forces that have moved copper metal production to Asia (especially China) and new smelting and refining processes. Indigenous Asian smelting processes are evaluated, along with energy and water requirements, environmental performance, copper electrorefining processes, and sulfur dioxide capture processes (e.g., WSA). The book puts special emphasis on the benefits of recycling copper scrap in terms of energy and water requirements. Comparisons of ore-to-product and scrap-to-product carbon emissions are also made to illustrate the concepts included. Describes copper mineralogy, mining and beneficiation techniques Compares a variety of mining, smelting and converting technologies Provides a complete description of hydrometallurgical and electrometallurgical processes, including process options and recent improvements Includes comprehensive descriptions of secondary copper processing, including scrap collection and upgrading, melting and refining technologies
Download or read book Copper written by Nnamdi Anyadike and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2002-03-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation In the next few decades copper will help to consolidate advances in telecommunications and Internet technology. The outlook for copper is bright, and despite the onset of recession in 2000, demand should pick up from 2002-2003 and return to reasonable industrial growth rates in the developed world. World copper prices are predicted to rise due to the dearth of new mining projects in the economic climate of 2001 and steadily rising metal demand led by China. In order to meet increased demand over the next 10 years there will have to be new mining capacity, including recycling of scrap copper and restarting idled capacity. China showed 13.6% growth in demand up to June 2001 and could overtake the US as the world's number one copper consumer in the next 20 years. Up-to-date, in-depth research and analysis to make you an authority on the world's major copper markets this report gives a clear, objective analysis of the world copper industry as it prepares to take advantage of soaring demand in the electronic, electrical and telecommunications industries. Some key findings of this report: How the output of the world's leading copper mines, Escondida, Chuquicamata and el Teniente is set to change over the next few years and what this means for Chilean and world copper production. Beyond 2003 copper demand will flatten in the mature, developed Western countries: this will leave the market delicately poised, and producers will largely be determining their own destinies when deciding when to commit to new projects. In the second half of this decade copper demand should pick up strongly, feeding fears of a shortfall in supply. Peru's copper output is set to be boosted by 50% through the Antamina mining project, owned by the Canadian consortium of Rio Algom, Noranda, Teck Corp and Mitsui. Telecommunications is a large and growing market for copper: the sector has seen factory sales growing at 8.3% compound rate over the past 8 years, led by strong growth in construction along with the increasing popularity of the Internet. Demand from the automotive sector will also boost consumption of copper in electrical and electronic applications. In 2001 the average copper content of a passenger car was 60lb, compared with under 55lb in 1995.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-author new edition revises and updates the classic reference by William G. Davenport et al (winner of, among other awards, the 2003 AIME Mineral Industry Educator of the Year Award "for inspiring students in the pursuit of clarity"), providing fully updated coverage of the copper production process, encompassing topics as diverse as environmental technology for wind and solar energy transmission, treatment of waste by-products, and recycling of electronic scrap for potential alternative technology implementation. The authors examine industrially grounded treatments of process fundamentals and the beneficiation of raw materials, smelting and converting, hydrometallurgical processes, and refining technology for a mine-to-market perspective - from primary and secondary raw materials extraction to shipping of rod or billet to customers. The modern coverage of the work includes bath smelting processes such as Ausmelt and Isasmelt, which have become state-of-the-art in sulfide concentrate smelting and converting. Drawing on extensive international industrial consultancies within working plants, this work describes in depth the complete copper production process, starting from both primary and secondary raw materials and ending with rod or billet being shipped to customers The work focuses particularly on currently-used industrial processes used to turn raw materials into refined copper metal rather than ideas working ‘only on paper’ New areas of coverage include the environmentally appropriate uses of copper cables in power transmission for wind and solar energy sources; the recycling of electronic scrap as an important new feedstock to the copper industry, and state-of-the-art Ausmelt and Isasmelt bath smelting processes for sulfide concentrate smelting and converting

PREFACE The aim of this book is to present a discussion of the various methods employed in winning copper from its ores and in refining the metal to commercial grade. Examples of modern practice are included to illustrate the application of these methods, but no attempt has been ma-le to compile a complete and exhaustive treatise on the practice all over the world. Such a treatise might well require several volumes. onfining the discussion largely to the extraction and refining of r, it has been possible to touch only lightly on several related cts because of space limitation. The chapter on ore dressing is m. ly a summary to indicate the methods used in dressing copper ores and the nature of the resulting concentrates. It was not possible to consider the subject of copper alloys in any great detail. An attempt has been made to give credit at the proper place for all material used in the book. The authors extend their thanks to the various mining, smelting, refining, and manufacturing companies, and to the publishing companies for their kind and willing cooperation. JOSEPH NEWTON CURTIS L.

Its use marked the transitory step in the progress of civilization from the Stone Age to the Metal Age. Although gold, owing to its sparkling yellow color, its high luster, its resistance to corrosion and tarnish, and its occurrence in the free or elemental state in nature, was unquestionably the first metal to attract the attention of man, and although in certain localities iron, 1 in the form of meteorites or even obtained by the reduction of the oxide with charcoal, may have been used before copper, nevertheless every ancient metal culture was actually introduced by the use of copper. 2 In the form of pure metal, fashioned first by the crude hammering of masses of native copper and later by melting, and in the form of bronze, obtained by smelting mixed tin and copper ores, it was employed originally for ornaments and statues and then as tools, domestic utensils, implements of war, and for every purpose in which its strength, hardness, and toughness proved its superiority to stone, wood, and other materials. When the methods of producing iron evolved from the direct processes through the cast iron period to puddling, cementation, and the crucible process, iron and steel usurped coppers position of first importance and withthe advent of the Bessemer and open-hearth processes, ferrous materials attained such ease of large-scale production and such widespread use that they almost eclipsed copper The age of electricity, however, introduced new requirements for materials to be used in the generation and transmission of electrical energy copper immediately entered its rejuvenation 3 and assumed firs place in importance in the electrical field and second in general utility in our present-day civilization. 1 Howe, H M, The Metallography of Steel and Cast Iron, p...
