Water cooled Copper Elements: Products
Copper Launders
Water cooled Copper Elements
Water-cooled copper launders use the freeze lining principle to reduce component wear. Lower wear means longer launder life, cutting long-term maintenance costs and downtime production losses.
Furnace Sidewall Cooling
Water cooled Copper Elements
Tenova's copper products use the freeze lining principle to reduce component wear. Lower wear means longer launder life, cutting long-term maintenance costs and downtime production losses.
Matte and slag taphole blocks
Water cooled Copper Elements
Tenova Pyromet copper tapholes are part of an integrated design solution for the entire taphole area, including the block and its surrounding refractory.

Water cooled Copper Elements
Designed by Tenova Pyromet, the furnace shell is fitted with Patented Safecool® copper coolers to provide a freeze lining. The coolers cool the slag, which then freezes onto the inside of the furnace, thereby creating protection for the refractory lining.

The design of this furnace required a unique approach since there are no reference plants of this type. Tenova Pyromet worked closely with the client and successfully designed a furnace from first principles. This resulted in an innovative and unique solution. World class technology was installed in this furnace including: a new generation furnace controller; lining management system; live video monitoring inside the closed furnace and the patented MAXICOOL ® system.
