Nonferrous Metals

Summary

Production of nonferrous metals is realised with use of a broad range of raw materials with diversified chemical character. This requires also a broad range of procedures for their processing. Students get acquainted with bases of pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy and electrometallurgy used for preparing, refining and recycling of selected nonferrous metals and their alloys.
