The Symposium covers most of the aspects of modern aqueous electrometallurgical practice, with a stronger emphasis on copper than zinc and nickel, which can be regarded as being the three major electrolytic metals. Of the minor electrolytic metals, there are contributions describing cobalt, lead and gold electrometallurgy, as well as the production of electrolytic manganese dioxide. The sessions divide neatly into modern copper tankhouse practice, purification techniques, modernization and automation, and new developments. A cross section of worldwide practice is represented, with a perhaps understandable concentration of Canadian operations. Plant tours to a modern zinc electrowinning operation, CEZ Inc at Valleyfield, and one of the world's largest copper refineries, Noranda Minerals, Inc., CCR Division in Montreal East, have been included as an integral part of the Symposium.
The symposium brings together papers by industrial users of oxygen, major oxygen producers, engineering firms and leading experts in the field. It covers recent development in oxygen technology - both in application and technology. Both pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical applications are discussed, and O2 production technologies feature the cryogenic process together with several alternative novel methods. Established and new emerging processes are featured, and increased process efficiencies, higher throughputs and reduced energy consumption are among the objectives of the symposium.
This book contains the state of the art in the use of autoclaves in the field of hydrometallurgy. Of the sixty-two papers contained in this volume, nine describe autoclave and pressure vessel design aspects, seven describe materials of construction of autoclaves, lining systems, and peripheral equipment such as valves, and six describe relevant high temperature measurements and thermodynamics. Papers describing specific commercial operations and project or process development aspects of pressure hydrometallurgy include seven in the field of copper processing; seven about laterites; six covering nickel sulfides, mattes, and PGM recovery; five detailing oxidation of refractory gold feeds; and ...
With both nickel and cobalt featuring heavily in modern industry, there is an ongoing and intense interest in ore supplies and processing, applications development, and recycling. This book presents a collection of authoritative papers covering the latest advances in all aspects of nickel and cobalt processing, including fundamentals, technology, operating practices, and related areas of Platinum-Group Metals (PGM) processing. Special emphasis is given to the treatment of sulphide and laterite ores, concentrates, and secondary materials for the production of nickel and cobalt.

A broad spectrum of the subject from basic research to plant applications has been covered. Flotation and hydrometallurgy have attracted a good deal of interest in view of their growing importance in the processing of complex ores. Physical methods including magnetic and gravity separation techniques have received attention in the processing of tantalum, niobium and tungsten. In addition, a set of papers is devoted to expert systems and their applications in mineral processing plants.
These Proceedings represent the metallurgical engineering and materials science research presented at the 62nd Annual Conference of Metallurgists (COM 2023), held in Toronto, Canada, from 21 to 24 August 2023. The Annual Conference of Metallurgists is organized by the Metallurgy & Materials Society of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (MetSoc of CIM). The collection themed ‘Climate Change and Sustainability’ presents findings on a wide range of topics, including: Advanced Manufacturing and Materials Sustainability: Integration for Better Outcomes Light Metals for Transportation and Next Generation Vehicles Derek Kerfoot Memorial Pressure Hydrometallurgy Symposium Laplante-Laskowski Symposium on Mineral Processing Fundamentals Wasmund Memorial Symposium of Sustainability in Pyrometallurgy
