Recovery of copper from slags and effluent of plants and mines

In this paper recovery of copper from slags and effluents of plants and mines by solvent extraction is surveyed. Successful usage of solvent extraction as a way to produce copper in mine industries has been noticeable issue for the recovery of this metal from effluents. Solvent extraction of copper from effluents can be used to achieve an acceptable level of environmental apart and avoid contamination of the effluents with undesirable organic compounds. This paper examines the extractors including Hydroxy Oxime, –βdiketone and LIX64N which have been applied for the extraction of copper from Ammoniacal solution. Ammonia transport difficulties and cost efficient on investment indicates that the best selective reagent for the ammonia solutions is β-diketone type such as LIX54 or Hostarex DK16.
