Abstract

This chapter delves into the ISASMELT™ technology, a leading method for smelting both primary and secondary copper. It explores various flowsheet options to optimize operational costs, environmental impact, and overall plant performance. The text compares different configurations, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right flowsheet for specific project goals. It also discusses the technology's advantages, such as low emissions, high metal recovery, and flexibility. The chapter concludes that the ISASMELT™ flowsheets offer the most competitive smelting economics, with each site optimized based on local requirements and project objectives. Professionals will gain insights into the benefits of the Jameson Concentrator™ for copper recovery from smelter slags and the importance of assessing similar technologies separately. The text provides a comprehensive overview of the ISASMELT™ technology, making it a valuable resource for those involved in copper smelting projects.
