Abstract: A process of treating complex sulfide concentrate includes the steps of roasting wet or slurried complex sulfide concentrate in a furnace at a temperature of at least 720° C. to obtain a calcine; smelting the calcine under inert or oxygen free atmosphere in a smelting furnace to obtain a matte, and optionally granulating the matte to obtain a granulated matte.

Abstract: Provided are a method and to a wet scrubber for removing particles from gas. The wet scrubber includes a second vertical cylindrical vessel having a second upper end for receiving an accelerated stream of liquid- and particles-laden gas from a vertically oriented venturi channel and a second lower end for feeding the accelerated stream of liquid- and particles-laden gas to a swirl generator. The second vertical cylindrical vessel and the swirl generator are arranged in a vertical cylindrical separation space of a first vertical cylindrical vessel. The swirl generator is arranged above the liquid tank.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for feeding an anode into a metallurgical smelting reactor (2), such as a flash converter, said arrangement including a feeding funnel (7) made of at least one part for feeding at least one anode (4) at a time into the smelting reactor, said arrangement also including a bending element (5) for bending the anode, so that the essentially completely bent anode (4) is arranged to meet the surface of the melt (8) contained in the smelting reactor in an essentially horizontal position. The invention also relates to a method for feeding an anode into a metallurgical smelting reactor (2).
