Extractive Metallurgy Courses and Training

Hydrometallurgy

 

Covers aqueous processes for extracting and refining metals from ores and industrial residues.

 

Topics include:

 

• Leaching fundamentals and process design
• Solvent extraction and separation methods
• Precipitation and electrowinning
• Designing hydrometallurgical flow sheets
• Industrial applications for copper, gold, uranium, nickel, and more

 

Pyrometallurgy

 

Focuses on high-temperature processes used to extract and purify metals.

 

Topics include:

 

• Roasting, smelting, and reduction techniques
• Types and operation of industrial furnaces (rotary, electric, etc.)
• Thermal behavior and process control
• Industrial applications for iron, lead, zinc, aluminum, and others

 

Target Audience (for both): Extractive metallurgists, process engineers, lab professionals, and researchers
