In consideration of high-content of copper and lead therein, copper smelting dust was decided to be leached with a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and sodium chloride. The leachate was then subjected to zinc powder replacement for recovering sponge copper, and the leaching residue was subjected to flotation to achieve effective separation between copper and lead. It is found that with sulfuric acid at an initial concentration of 2.0 mol/L, sodium chloride at concentration of 4.0 mol/L and liquid-solid ratio of 4∶1, 2-h leaching at 90 ℃ results in leaching rates of As and Cu reaching 99.19% and 80.69%, respectively; and the copper replacement rate reaches 92.48% from the copper containing solution with pH of 2 at 50 ℃ by replacing with zinc powder at an amount of 1.8 times of solution. Surface analysis technique reveals that Bi (Ⅲ) remaining on the surface of copper sulfide significantly inhibits the flotation of copper sulfide. Therefore, washing pretreatment shall be added before flotation. After that, a flotation process consisting of one roughing, two cleaning and two scavenging can produce a copper concentrate grading 56.17% Cu at 94.15% recovery, and a lead concentrate with 58.01% Pb grade at 99.14% recovery. It is concluded that this comprehensive treatment by a combined beneficiation and metallurgical route for copper smelter dust can provide a reference in the treatment of other smelting dusts.
