This collection addresses new research and technology for increased efficiency, energy reduction, and waste minimization in mineral processing, extractive metallurgy, and recycling. Professor Patrick R. Taylor and his students have been studying these topics for the past 45 years. Chapters include new directions in:

·       Mineral Processing

·       Hydrometallurgy

·       Pyrometallurgy

·       Electrometallurgy

·       Metals and E waste recycling

·       Waste minimization (including by-product recovery)

·       Innovations in metallurgical engineering education and curriculum development
