What will I learn?

Gain a practical overview of copper smelting in this Pyrometallurgy Course, covering thermodynamics, matte-slag chemistry, concentrate composition, and minor element effects. Master flash smelting processes, mass and energy balances, gas cleaning, sulphur capture, and heat recovery to optimise operations, reduce fuel consumption, enhance SO2 management, and develop data-driven improvement plans.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Model copper smelting thermodynamics, confidently predicting matte, slag, and gas reactions.
  • Design smelter feeds, specifying blends for 1,000 t/d Cu concentrates and managing impurities.
  • Perform rapid mass and energy balances to determine matte, slag, off-gas, and fuel requirements.
  • Optimise gas cleaning and SO2 control by adjusting slag chemistry and enhancing sulphur capture.
  • Develop data-supported optimisation proposals to present compelling upgrade cases to plant managers.
