Hydrometallurgy describes the aqueous chemistry, thermodynamics, kinetics, reactor design and engineering of extracting metals by hydrometallurgical routes. The book includes the techniques by which gold, copper, nickel, cobalt and the platinum-group metals are produced as highly-pure metals to meet the exact needs of the market. In addition, the book covers the scientific and engineering principles of these types of processes, the industrial practice used to produce such high-value metals, and the factors that make these processes so successful. Finally, the recovery of valuable metals through recycling of waste materials is discussed.…mehr

Autorenporträt
Editorial board of the journal "Hydrometallurgy" and been an assistant editor. I lectured hydrometallurgy for ten years while at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. I have numerous publications in the fields that make up hydrometallurgy - leaching, electrometallurgy, electrochemistry, bacterial leaching. I have worked in the field for nearly thirty years. I have run a professional consultancy working in the field of hydrometallurgy for the last ten years.
