Abstract
In 2004, KCM Nkana Smelter commissioned a 1200 tonne per day flash dryer and associated dry concentrate transport and injection system on the existing Teniente Modified converter (CT) unit. The aim was to upgrade the existing smelting unit, increase copper output and improve energy efficiency. This paper reviews the design, installation and commissioning phases of the introduction of this new technology and also discusses the initial two years of operating results for both the flash dryer and injection system at Nkana.
