Overview

The 21st century will be upon us shortly. What will metallurgical industries look like? What will we need to do to prepare for the new century? How can metallurgy survive and indeed prosper, as an industry and a scientific discipline in the face of increasing competition from other materials and needs for increasingly stringent environmental considerations? This two-volume collection of 145 international papers examines and discusses the predicted principal features of future metallurgical plants and technologies, the effects of new developments on existing processes, and the future directions of research and education. Discussion topics include: value-addition metallurgy; metals processing; new and emerging technologies; recycling, waste treament and environmental issues; ironmaking and steelmaking; process modeling; aqueous processing; and plant modernization. The book is drawn from a collection of papers from the Second International Symposiumn on Metallurgical Processes for the Year 2000 and Beyond - the 1994 TMS Fall Extraction & Processing Meeting held in San Diego, California, September 21-23, 1994.
