With the successful commissioning of a 600 t/d sulphuric acid plant as part of the new metallurgical complex in Lualaba Province in the DRC, Tenke Fungurme Mining (TFM) continues to develop this site and increase copper production using a systematic approach. This paper outlines the key challenges encountered and solutions adopted to reliably increase acid production in a remote location. Development of acid plants no. 1 and no. 2, including debottlenecking and environmental upgrades, is described.
