Copper Recycling

Technical oxygen is already being used for copper melting and

refining. The use of oxygen in combustion technologies further

improves the climate friendly features. 

There are many potential ways to use oxygen in existing processes

as a retrofit. 

Oxy-fuel combustion is the key to decarbonization for copper recycling. 

Features of oxygen usage for copper recyling are:

- Energy Savings

- Increase of Productivity

- Reduction of Flue Gas Volume

- Reduction of Emisions

- Increase of Flexibility

Oxy-fuel burners and oxygen enrichment can be used in

many processes of copper raffination and melting. 

In Particular:

- Shaft Furnaces

- Holding Furnaces

- PS Converters

- Hearth Furnaces

- Rotary Furnaces

- Transfer Ladles and

- Asarco Furnaces.

We offer technical consulatation and equipment to bring

more oxy-fuel applications in your copper production.
