POSSIBILITIES OF COMPREHENSIVE PROCESSING OF MAN-MADE WASTE FROM COPPER PROCESSING PLANTS

Currently in the world effective methods are being developed for processing mineral raw materials and industrial waste, completely extracting valuable components and increasing production capacity for the extraction of non-ferrous and precious metals, creating low-waste and non-waste technologies. This article presents the results of research on the development of effective methods for processing technogenic tailings with high recovery of valuable components. In addition, the results of experiments on processing waste from copper concentration factories and their granulometric, mineralogical and chemical compositions are presented. Storing this waste involves large material costs and at the same time causes some damage to the environment. It is important that the ability to separate iron minerals by the electromagnetic method has increased due to the fact that the amount of iron has increased several times after the extraction of silicon dioxide from waste from copper processing plants. Thanks to this, this type of waste serves as an additional source for the extraction of iron, gold, silver, copper and other valuable components. As a result of research, the developed technology for processing technogenic waste from a copper processing plant is effectively disposed of as a result of factors such as hermetically sealed at low temperatures, environmental safety, and energy efficiency, which makes it possible to effectively process waste from copper processing plants.
