ITAvE, 2016, 196 pages, ISBN: 9535103563.As the title, “Recent Researches in Metallurgical Engineering, From Extraction to Forming” implies, this text blends new theories with practices covering a broad field of metalrelated technologies including mineral processing, extractive metallurgy, heat treatment and casting. This book is divided into different 5 chapters. Each of the chapters is a review of the research made by the authors during the last decade, and includes references to the research published in scientific papers and conference proceedings by experts in the field.
Altogether, this book contains five chapters. In Chapter 1, the author has endeavored to describe the possibilities of exploitation and recovery of valuable minerals and metals from a well-known industrial waste named red (brown) mud which is produced during processing of bauxite mineral in alumina production. The book begins with this chapter because it is somehow related to mineral processing, which usually takes the position as the principal front-end operation in the overall process flowsheet for metal extraction. Chapter 2 deals with hydro- and electro-metallurgy. The first section of this chapter focused on oxidative leaching of sulfide minerals which is a challenging issue in extractive metallurgy of copper and precious metals such as gold. The second section of Chapter 2 presents the main methods for mass transfer increasing during the electrochemical deposition of metals from hydroelectro-metallurgical processes wasted solutions. The goal of Chapter 3 is to present the current state of the modeling concerning the refining processes in the production of ferrochrome and stainless steel. In Chapter 4, the authors describe the estimation of the quenching effects made after carburizing based on the information provided by Jominy test. The Jominy end-quench test is the standard method for measuring the hardenability of steels. The last chapter, addresses certain representative issues concerning semi-solid processing and die-casting of specific alloys and composites.Contents
