  • Patent number: 7943082
    Abstract: A water-cooling jacket structure 10 for an inspection hole of a flash furnace 1 is arranged at the periphery of a concentrate burner 7 to inspect and clean the inside of the furnace and the concentrate burner 7, and formed in a cylindrical shape by combining a plurality of jacket plates 11, 12, 13, 14 cast internally with cooling tubes 21, 22, 23, 24 for circulating cooling-water, and configured to adjust its cooling capacity and amount of cooling-water by circulating cooling-water to a single or multiple systems of the respective cooling-water systems of each jacket 11, 12, 13, 14 depending on the heat-load of the flash furnace 1.

  • Patent number: 7510679
    Abstract: The present invention provides a taphole cooling structure allowing prevention of wear and deformation of peripheral bricks of the taphole and maintaining stable operation of the furnace in high copper matte grade operations and high load operations. The taphole cooling structure is provided with a hollow jacket body to be inserted into an opening penetrated on a furnace wall, wherein a water passage is installed in the internal of the jacket body for circulating cooling water while a flange made of the same material as the furnace wall is provided on the periphery of said jacket body to be weldingly connected to the said furnace wall, wherein a refractory material is filled within a hollow of the said hollow jacket body and perforated with a taphole for draining solutions from the furnace body.

  • Publication number: 20080128964
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a taphole cooling structure allowing to prevent the wear and deformation of peripheral bricks of a taphole for taking out solutions from a furnace body, and to maintain a stable operation of the furnace in a high copper matte grade operation and high-load operation. Means for Solving the Problems To provide a structure for cooling a taphole provided with a hollow jacket body to be inserted into an opening penetrated on a furnace wall, wherein a water passage is installed in the internal of the said jacket body for circulating cooling water while a flange made of the same material as the above furnace wall is provided on the periphery of the said jacket body to be weldingly connected to the said furnace wall, wherein a refractory material is filled within a hollow of the said hollow jacket body and perforated with a taphole for draining the solutions from the furnace body.
