Modelling of an autoclave used for high pressure sulphuric acid/oxygen leaching of first stage leach residue. Part 1: Model development

Pressure leaching of the first stage leach residue in Base Metal Refinery (BMR) circuits aims to achieve high base metal dissolution with minimal precious metal leaching. Optimum autoclave operation is challenging because of the complex leaching chemistry, varying mineralogy of the feed material, an...
