Abstract
Analytical studies of the physicochemical interactions and isothermal equilibriums in Cu-Fe-S-O system were conducted at temperatures 1623K, 1373K and 973K by software HSC Chemistry ver.7.1 modules: Reaction Equations and Lpp diagrams. The thermodynamical stability of the phases in Cu-S-O and Fe-S-O systems were determined under certain conditions. The tendencies of their variation upon injection of ``sulphatizing air`` in the volume of the dust-gas flow output of flash smelting furnace (FSF) uptake were also studied. It was established that the formation of cuprum sulphate and iron ferric sulphate is thermodynamically possible only at temperatures lower than 973 K. The results predicted on the basis of the analytical investigation were confirmed by chemical and X-ray analyses of dust samples taken from the convective part of the waste heat boiler (WHB).
