Solvent Extraction. The next step is solvent extraction, in which two immiscible liquids are mixed vigourously together and then allowed to separate based on solubility. This way, the copper moves from one liquid to the other. The copper that was in the leach solution moves into the solvent, leaving impurities behind.

In recent times, a low copper content in ores has been observed (ores containing 0.2–0.3% copper are used for processing in Canada and the United States, and ores containing at least 0.4% copper are used in Russia []) owing to the exhaustion of rich copper resources.The flowsheet of processing copper ores is developed for each …

Solvent Extraction (SX) The CESL Process utilizes an organic mixture of 40% v/v extractant (LIX 973N®) and 60% v/v kerosene diluent (conosol 170E) to selectively extract copper from the PLS stream. A typical configuration for the main solvent extraction circuit is 2 stages of extraction, a single organic wash stage and 2 stages of stripping.

An eight-week, integrated pilot-plant campaign producing 24 kg/h cathode copper was carried out at AARL [4]. The pilot plant treated 27 tons of CRO and 2.5 tons of Konkola concentrate, and produced 940 kg of LME Grade A copper cathode. Both SX circuits comprised three extraction and two strip stages, configured for counter-current flow.

Copper can be extracted from non-sulfide ores by a different process involving three separate stages: Reaction of the ore (over quite a long time and on a huge scale) with a dilute acid such as dilute sulfuric acid to produce a very dilute copper(II) sulfate solution. Concentration of the copper(II) sulfate solution by solvent extraction.

The extraction section of the solvent extraction plant consists of a number of mixer-settlers in series. The aqueous leach liquor flows through these counter-current to an organic stream which is made up of LIX-64N dissolved in a kerosene carrier, and the copper content of the leach liquor is transferred into the organic phase.

Copper Solvent Extraction. The separation of copper from nickel is based on the fact that there is an appreciable difference in the pH at which the two metals are extracted. Copper can be extracted, with very small amounts of nickel, at pH 6.0 to 6.5, while nickel is extracted from the copper raffinate at pH 8.0 to 8.2.

Because of the design of mixers currently used in copper solvent extraction plants, metal transfer in a stage is usually about 85 to 95% of theoretical. For this reason, the values predicted by equilibrium McCabe-Thiele diagrams for the aqueous and organic phases exiting a given stage are seldom realized in an operating circuit.

The basic idea of the VSF™ technology is to maintain smooth agitation throughout the solvent extraction plant to avoid oxidation of organic and development of overly small droplet size in dispersion (Outotec Oyj 2007). The solvent extraction reagents can selectively extract copper over other metals from feed solution (Kordosky et al. 2006).
