Abstract
The occurrence characteristics of arsenic in matte phase are unclear, which leads to the current treatment technology not being able to remove arsenic from matte phase significantly, thus causing a large amount of arsenic to affect smelting links such as copper converting and electrolytic refining. This paper uses instrumental analysis such as XRD, SEM-EDS, MLA and chemical analysis methods such as chemical phase extraction to comprehensively analyze the occurrence characteristics of arsenic in matte phase. The results show that the occurrence states of arsenic in matte are mainly arsenic sulfide, arsenic oxide, arsenate and residual arsenic. Most of the arsenic is in residual state in matte; arsenic in matte is extremely stable and difficult to exchange with the outside world; in high-grade matte, the arsenic content is relatively high. The main occurrence state of arsenic is copper-based complex alloy compounds, in which the arsenic content is about 1-10%. Since the metal bond between Cu-As is extremely stable, it is difficult to separate arsenic from it, which is also the key to the difficulty in completely removing arsenic from matte.
