An aluminum ingot casting machine comprising a source of molten metal, a rotatable annular ring, carrying ingot casting moulds and a drive means for indexing the moulds. The machine includes a vacuum demoulder having a vacuum seal arrangement comprising a sealing element having a flexible core which can deform to form a vacuum seal against an ingot and a flexible abrasion resistant outer layer on said core, and retaining elements located on a lower face of the vacuum lifting head for releasably retaining the sealing element onto the lifting head. The vacuum seal comprises a flexible ring shaped body, being rounded in cross section, having a fibre cord core and an abrasion resistant flexible sheathing surrounding the core.
摘要:
A method for leaching a sulfidic metal concentrate in hydrometallurgical production of metal in a leaching process from which hot water vapor containing off-gas is conducted out and to which an acid solution warmed up to an elevated temperature is conducted. The acid solution is warmed up to an elevated temperature by bringing off-gas of the leaching step into direct contact with the acid solution.

The invention relates to a method whereby copper is recovered from a copper sulphide ore containing pyrite. According to the method the ore is ground and leached into a solution containing sulfuric acid in atmospheric conditions by means of trivalent copper. As the copper sulphide leaches out, the trivalent iron is reduced to divalent and is oxidized back to trivalent by means of oxygen during leaching. Leaching is carried out in a closed reactor, where the undissolved gas rising from the solution in the supper section of the reactor is circulated back into the suspension of solution, solids and gas. leaching is performed in the presence of both divalent and trivalent iron and preferably with the dissolved copper acting as a catalyst to promote leaching. The conditions are adjusted to be such that the pyrite of the ore essentially does not dissolve.

The invention relates to a method of feeding a fuel gas into the reaction shaft of a suspension smelting furnace and to a concentrate burner for feeding a reaction gas and fine solid matter into the reaction shaft of the suspension smelting furnace. In the method, fuel gas (16) is fed by the concentrate burner (4) to constitute part of the mixture formed by the pulverous solid matter (6) and the reaction gas (5), so that a mixture containing the pulverous solid matter (6), reaction gas (5) and fuel gas (6) is formed in the reaction shaft (2). The concentrate burner (4) comprises fuel gas feeding equipment (15) for adding the fuel gas (16) to constitute part of the mixture that is formed by fine solid matter (6) and reaction gas (5).

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for preparing a mother plate of a permanent cathode to be used in a process for electrolytic recovery of metal such as metal electrorefining or metal electrowinning. The apparatus comprises a holder for releasably holding the permanent cathode, a measurer for measuring a shape of the mother plate to obtain measurement data, a calculating device functionally connected with the measurer and configured for calculating geometric deviation of the mother plate in comparison to a predefined reference shape by using the measurement data, and a presser functionally connected with the calculating device and configured for automatically locally pressing the mother plate in accordance with the calculated geometric deviation of the mother plate to plastically deform the mother plate.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for converting an iron-bearing residue generated in a hydrometallurgical process that contains small amounts of soluble heavy metals into a stable form by means of a neutralizing agent. The residue is elutriated and the elutriated residue is fed into at least one stabilization or homogenization reactor, into which a neutralizing agent is also routed, and the homogenous mixing together of the residue and neutralizing agent takes place by means of a helix mixer, where the ratio of the diameter of the mixer to the diameter of the reactor is 0.75-0.99.

The invention concerns a method for the recovery of thermal energy from a steam dryer 2 with a closed circulation 2.1 that produces excess steam SS characterised in that the excess steam SS is condensed to an unclean condensate UC in a steam regeneration unit 3 and in that thermal energy in the unclean condensate UC is recovered by being transferred to a district heating medium HW in a heat exchanger 4 for district heating.The invention concerns also a system for the recovery of thermal energy from a steam dryer 2 with a closed circulation 2.1.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method of controlling the thermal balance of the reaction shaft of a suspension smelting furnace and to a concentrate burner for feeding reaction gas and pulverous solid mater into the reaction shaft of the suspension smelting furnace. In the method, endothermic material (16) is fed by the concentrate burner (4) to constitute part of the mixture formed from the powdery solid matter (6) and reaction gas (5), so that a mixture containing the powdery solid matter (6), reaction gas (5) and endothermic material (6) is formed in the reaction shaft (2). The concentrate burner (4) comprises cooling agent feeding equipment (15) for adding the endothermic material (16) to constitute part of the mixture, which is formed from the pulverous solid matter (6) that discharges from the orifice (8) of the feeder pipe and the reaction gas (5) that discharges through the annular discharge orifice (14).

The invention relates to an apparatus and method for removing molybdenum and other possible impurities from an organic copper-containing extraction solution in connection with the liquid-liquid extraction related to copper recovery. The removal of impurities occurs in one or several removal units built into the organic extraction solution storage tank.
摘要:
In a sealing device (1) for sealing the through hole of an electrode, the pressurizing medium that generates the pressure of mechanical sealings against a rod electrode structure is an inert gas, such as nitrogen. The means for pressing the created sealing ring (6) against the rod electrode structure (4) include a gas distribution chamber (8) surrounding the sealing ring (6); a first channel (9) that is arranged to provide a flow path for the inert gas in between the hose (14) and the gas distribution chamber (8); an annular groove (10) in the sealing surface (7) of the sealing ring (6); and a second channel (11), which is placed in the sealing ring (6) and is arranged to provide a flow path for the gas from the gas distribution chamber to the groove (10) for extruding the gas in between the sealing surface (7) and the rod electrode structure (4).
