section heading graphic   Competitive Advantages

Ausmelt’s TSL technology enables excellent process control, flexibility and cost benefits. It can be used for processing large annual throughputs of up to a million tonnes of concentrates or processing at a much smaller scale and is rapidly gaining acceptance as the “technology of choice” for brown and greenfield pyrometallurgical projects.

section heading graphic   Technology & Services

The TSL technology is an intense, energy-efficient bath smelting system. The key feature of this technology is the use of a non-consumable submerged lance that injects air, oxygen and fuel directly into the bath to promote rapid reactions. The technology is used commercially to produce non-ferrous metals, including copper, lead, tin, zinc, PGMs, nickel and ferrous products from a range of feed materials including concentrates, secondary materials, residues and drosses, materials that contain precious metal, process by-products and municipal waste materials
