During copper smelting, copper concentrates containing organic carbon compounds undergo roasting in a fluidised-bed furnace, resulting in the formation of deposits that accumulate on the surfaces of furnace tubes. These deposits are significant because they reduce the heat flux absorbed from the bed, potentially impacting the efficiency of the roasting process. This study aims to investigate the morphology, chemical composition, and thermophysical properties of these deposits, focusing on how varying deposit thicknesses influence surface temperature and heat absorption. A deposit collected from an industrial facility was analyzed, and key findings indicate that a deposit thickness of 40 mm leads to an approximate 80% reduction in absorbed energy compared to a clean tube surface. The research highlights the critical relationship between deposit characteristics and thermal performance, offering insight into operational optimization for enhanced copper concentrate processing efficiency.
