Fig. 3 - - Combined elimination of arsenic in converter and anode furnace as functions of blowing temperature and starting matte grade. Small circles are the data points from commercial operations, as reported by George, Donaldson, and Johnson, ~: whereas solid curves are calculated by the present computer model. Note that the eliminations starting from white metal (80 pet Cu matte) are less than 0.2 pet or practically negligible.

Fig. 4--Combined elimination of antimony in converter and anode furnace as functions of blowing temperature and starting matte grade. Small circles are due t o commercial operations after George, Donaldson, and Johnson, ~2while solid curves are predictedby the present computer simulation model. The eliminations from white metal on are less than 3 pet, or negligibly small, as shown in the graph.
copper6 had to be modified, as shown in Table I, so as to retain an increasing volatilization with increasing temperature. In other words, the present literature data for antimony6 apparently contain some contradictions. The discrepancy observed for arsenic (Table II) may be due to the lack of accuracy in the fundamental data in part. Similarly, the information available from smelters are not very systematic nor extensive, as seen in Tables II and III. Thus, further experimental work should be suggested for both fundamental and industrial researche
