Deep roasting in fluid bed roasters is the first unit operation in Inco's "roast-reduction smelting" process for the treatment of nickel sulphide concentrates. The roaster product, a low sulphur calcine, is reduction smelted with coke in an electric furnace to yield a sulphur-deficient matte which is then converted to low (<1%) iron matte in Peirce-Smith converters. …

The extraction of nickel (Ni) from sulfide resources commences with flotation to produce a concentrate which is then smelted to produce a nickel-enriched phase called matte, and further refined to ...
Nickel is precipitated by blowing hydrogen at 30 atm in the purified leach liquor at 170 °C. ... the only alternative seems to be the conversion of sulfide concentrates into oxides by dead ...
In dead roasting all sulphides are converted in to oxide. This is done to extract Zn from its sulphide ore. In sulphatising roasting, sulphide is converted into sulphate as sulphatecan be …
A copper concentrate may be roasted autogenously in a multiple hearth furnace provided sulphur is not eliminated completely. Dead roasting would require additional thermal energy.
In addition to common metals like copper, lead, zinc, and nickel a number of other metals such as antimony, bismuth, cadmium, cobalt, mercury, and molybdenum occur as sulfide minerals. Sulfides are not reduced with the most widely used reducing agents, carbon and hydrogen, because the free energy change for the reactions 2MS + C = 2M + CS2 and MS + H2 = M + …
Sulfation roasting, a common activation technique, is a potential method for cleaner production of nickel from complex low-grade ores. In this study, nickel oxide–sulfide mixed ore concentrate was roasted with the addition of …
Dead roasting of copper concentrates, to a sulphur content of less than 1.5%, achieves an immediate removal of 96 to 98% of the original sulphur. ...

The ConRoast process is based on the removal of sulphur by roasting, followed by smelting ofthe dead-roasted concentrate in a DC arc furnace using an iron-based alloy as a collector for nickel, copper, cobalt, and PGMs.
Keywords: roasting, dead roasting, sulphatizing roasting Introduction: In Pyro metallurgicalextraction of metal, thermal energy is one of the important inputs. Different unit processeslike roasting, smelting, converting and refining require large amount of thermal energy. This lecture discusses roasting. Roasting
Roasting of Nickel Concentrates R. PANDHER and T. UTIGARD The oxidation of three nickel concentrates from two Canadian smelters was studied by thermogravimetric analysis. Concentrate samples were heated to 1223 K (950 C) in inert or oxidizing atmospheres to determine the reaction behavior. By recording the mass change as well as the SO

It was found that the nickel sulphides responded to flotation at pH 9 with PAX and TETA additions and that maximum grades of between 6 to 8% were achieved with the average cumulative grade of the nickel concentrates having values of between 4 and 5 wt.% nickel. Cumulative recoveries were low, with values between 50% and 60% on a sulphide basis ...
For example, dead roasting of sphalerite concentrate to an all-oxide product is the prerequisite for the pyrometallurgical smelting processes. For copper and nickel extraction, only partial roasting is practiced. In order to produce a mixed oxide– sulfate product sulfation roast is preferred. The most outstanding example of this is found in ...
The transformation evolution of nickel concentrate in the roasting process using NH4HSO4 is shown in Fig. 6. The main product at a roasting temperature below 400 °C is metalâˆ'ammonium complex. When the temperature is higher than 400 °C, some metalâˆ'ammonium complexes are transformed into metal sulfates [27]. ...
The absence of copper and precious metals in the ore renders this concentrate amenable to processing by dead roasting in a fluid-bed roaster and smelting in an electric …

Royal Nickel Corporation is developing the Dumont Nickel Project, a large nickel sulphide deposit located near the town of Amos, Québec. The nickel occurs as pentlandite, heazlewoodite, and awaruite. The relatively low grade ore can be processed to a very high grade nickel concentrate, containing 29% Ni. The absence of copper and precious metals in the ore …
Definitions. the invention relates in general to the roasting of metal sulphides, more specifically to fluid bed roasting of iron-bearing sulphides and particularly to agglomerative roasting of pyrrhotite-bearing concentrates at temperatures sufficient to cause fusion during roasting. It is well known that government restrictions which are now being placed on SO 2 emissions to the atmosphere ...
