TK-5006 Processing of Particulate Solid

This document discusses processing methods for various solid materials including portland cement, fertilizers, sugar, paper, and copper. It describes the key raw materials and chemical reactions involved in producing products like superphosphate, triple superphosphate, DAP, and NPK fertilizers. Concentration, smelting, converting, and electrorefining steps are outlined for extracting copper from sulfide ore bodies. Processing of other materials such as cement, sugar, and paper is also briefly covered.
