Integration of natural relations and application possibilities of
technological processes of hydrometallurgical processing of
ores, non-ore materials and wastes with the emphasis on theoretical principles
of the processes, i.e. the study of theoretical basics of heterogeneous
chemical reactions. The individual chapters more closely
concentrate on the chemical preparatory processes (roasting, mechanochemical
and mechanothermic activation, etc.), especially on the processes of leaching,
leach refining and extraction of useful constituents from the solutions.
Special emphasis is given to modern technologies and facilities that provide
environment friendly and sustainable development.
