The loss of copper in the converting process through its incorporation to the converter slag represents a major problem in the copper metallurgy. There are two important mechanisms for this phenomenon: the physicochemical and the mechanical one. The mechanical mechanism, i.e. the mechanical entrapment of matte or of metallic copper inside the slag, is by

Mats Hillert has shown [*] that what is called a Phase Diagram is derivable from a projection in a so-called Property Diagram. The (molar) Gibbs Energy as the property is plotted along the z-axis as a function of two other variables x and y. For binary systems, for example, T equals y and the mole

GTT was represented at the TMS 2019! The TMS (https://www.tms.org/TMS2019) is a huge annual conference, organized by the Minerals, Metals and Materials Society in the United States. This year the conference took place in San Antonio, Texas. Dr. Stephan Petersen gave a presentation at one of the symposia of REWAS 2019, which focuses on Manufacturing
A customer has asked me: “Is it possible to export/import data to and from FactSage? For instance, I would like to do a series of calculations for different initial chemical compositions of the system and it would be very useful to import all the compositions automatically from an Excel table into FactSage”. Yes, it is
