Following the tradition of the previous international symposiums, this resource tackles the newest in primary and secondary resource recovery with sections on environmental hydrometallurgy, research and industrial applications, base and precious metals, and leaching. Case histories from around the world provide a hands-on look at how industry leaders are solving problems and setting new standards. The book provides insights on minerals biotechnology, explores plant design and operation, discusses the challenges of plant start-ups, and offers practical solutions for reducing energy consumption in all aspects of unit operations. It also provide insights on acid rock drainage, waste water and resource recovery, process development and modeling, heap leaching, the future role of hydrometallurgy, and countless other timely, important subjects. Generously illustrated with charts, graphs, and photos, this book is a must read for researchers, instructors, students, administrators, government personnel, and industrial representatives who want to stay on the cutting edge of this challenging and rapidly evolving field.
