Pyrometallurgy being a field of metallurgy where metals are produced using high temperatures a focus on slag quality to improve the recovery of the targeted metal. Amongst different properties required of the slag is its composition. Different sources of heat and reductants are used. Coal has been used either as a source of heat or a reductant. Depending on the place of origin of coal, its composition varies thus having an impact on the quality of slag produced, therefore on the metal. In the present paper, a comp...
