SysCAD + ChemApp for Copper Smelting: A Step-by-Step Guide to Building an Integrated Pyrometallurgical Flowsheet – Part I

Following the ChemApp for Python workflow presented by Shivani Gonde (Part I, GTT-Technologies, December 2025) and the corresponding FactFlow implementation by Kyota Poeti et al. (CALPHAD 88, 2025, 102772), this post demonstrates how the same integrated copper smelting process can be implemented entirely within SysCAD. Using the ChemApp for SysCAD Thermodynamic Calculation Engine (TCE) Add-on, […]

Optimizing Copper Extraction: Integrated Pyrometallurgical Modelling with ChemApp for Python – Part I

Introduction Process modelling is a key approach for optimizing industrial operations, delivering tangible gains in cost reduction, process efficiency, and environmental performance. In copper extraction, pyrometallurgical routes consist of multiple interconnected unit operations that must be considered together to understand overall behavior. Using its stream functionality, ChemApp for Python provides rigorous thermochemical calculations that allow
