Recently, several removal technologies of minor elements in copper smelting have been developed along with the degradation and the diversification of copper concentrates and also for assuring the quality of cathode. This article reviews the current and new elimination technologies of minor elements for copper smelting based on the recently published papers focusing specifically on arsenic, antimony, bismuth, lead and nickel among various impurities. In this article, the removal technologies in copper smelting are classified into five categories; (1) pre-treatment, (2) extraction from matte or copper, (3) dust treatment, (4) anode doping and (5) purification of electrolyte. Vacuum refining which is not established as a current industrial process is also described in this article.

Phase diagrams for the CaO-SiO_2-FeO_x-Al_2O_3 or -MgO systems at various oxygen partial pressures are necessary for the design of raw material for ironmaking, the analysis of smelting reaction and sintering process. To clarify the effect of Al_2O_3 or MgO content on the formation of melts in the sintering process is important for the development of new sinter. In this study, liquidus for the CaO-SiO_2-FeO_x-Al_2O_3 or -MgO systems at various oxygen partial pressures were observed at 1573K by using chemical equilibration technique. The liquid phase area changed with adding Al_2O_3 or MgO. The effect of the Fe^<3+>/Fe^<2+> ratio on the melting mechanism is discussed.

The Utility of Stock hypothesis, which assumes that an in-use stock of constructional material is a function of GDP, was formulated and a clear correlation between the world steel stock and the world GDP led to the estimation that the world demand for iron ore (primary iron) depends not on the volume of GDP but on the variation of GDP, as already reported. It also became clear that the flow of primary iron has the controlling effect on the world production of crude steel. In this study, the prediction power of the Utility of Stock hypothesis is verified. Based on the verification, the global demand for iron source until 2050 is projected by deciding a world 1-region model.

To forecast iron source demand, the Intensity of Use hypothesis, which assumes that material consumption per capita is a function of GDP per capita, is the most dominant theory in existing studies. However, this hypothesis is not effective for a world one-region model of iron sources. Therefore, we focused our attention on utility, and we suppose that economic growth is a major driver to increase the utility. As the utility of steel sustains for ages after purchase, we formulate the Utility of Stock hypothesis, which assumes that the in-use steel stock is a function of GDP. In this study, the world steel stock was computed and the Utility of Stock hypothesis was tested. Clear correlation is found between the steel stock and the GDP. It leads to the estimation that the world demand for iron ore depends not on the volume of GDP but on the variation of GDP. For the first time with total world figures, the result enables us to rationalize the recent decoupling between the world growth of iron source demand and the economic growth.

The Utility of Stock hypothesis, which assumes that the in-use stock of constructional material is a function of GDP, was formulated and the clear correlation between the world steel stock and the GDP led to the estimation that the world demand for iron ore (primary iron) depends not on the volume of GDP but on the variation of GDP, as already reported. In this study, the world steel stock in use is computed. Sensitivity analyses are conducted to show the effect of lower reliable data such as the usage period (lifetime) of iron-containing final products. Clear correlation is found between the in-use steel stock and the steel stock. Hence, the Utility of Stock hypothesis is verified.
