1. Introduction. Copper tailing, which is composed of fine powder and gravel solid waste, is the byproduct generated during the process of copper mine separation and the residue of primary smash and selection of copper mine [1, 2].According to the manufacturing technique of copper tailing, the production of 1 ton copper can generate 128 tons of copper tailing [3, 4].


Life Cycle Assessment of Concrete Using Copper Slag as a Partial Cement

Cement, one of the main components of concrete, poses environmental risks, accounting for 7% of total global carbon emissions. To alleviate the environmental hazards related to cement manufacturing, supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) are employed to reduce the usage of cement in concrete. One SCM used is copper slag (CS). In this study, a life cycle …

The history of copper cementation on iron — The world's …

In China, the earliest recorded date of commercial operations for the production of cement copper is 1086 A.D. in the Northern Sung period [1]. This is several centuries earlier than first recorded date in Europe. ... For many centuries, the copper cementation process has been a very effective and economic, as well as the simplest method of ...


Resource utilization of sulfidic copper tailings in calcium …

The sulfide minerals present in STs, such as pyrite, usually coexist with copper in the ore and are susceptible to oxidation during the process of copper extraction (including crushing, milling, and flotation), which generates large quantities of sulfates and acids [6, 7].As the sulfur content in STs varies with the source material, some studies found that the sulfur …
