The residual porosity is an unavoidable phenomenon of the components produced by powder metallurgy process which in turn largely affects the strength property of the same. Now a day it is possible to control porosity of powder metallurgy components and retain them to desired amount when required. The porosity of a powder metallurgy component is greatly depends on the sintering temperature. In t...

The topic of the volume “Early Indian Metallurgy the production of Lead, Silver and Zinc through Three Millennia in North West India”, just published by Archetype Publications in London, discusses archeological data and analytic results, collected in several decades of research in three zinc, lead and silver mines in India. The author of the volume is Paul T Craddock, former Head of Metallurgy ...

Mining and metallurgy have negative consequences for the environment [1-3] and lead to changes in geological [4] and climatic conditions [5]. Mining-metallurgy operations include the extraction, preparing of ores (crushing ore and flotation), processing of concentrates, and the disposal of waste rock and by-products. The main waste in mining and metallurgy are waste rocks, flotation tailings an...

In the four decades since the discovery that a discrete Bronze Age preceded the Iron Age in mainland Southeast Asia, much has been learned about the dating, technology, production, organization, and use of bronze metallurgy in the region, particularly in prehistoric Thailand. Although independent invention of copper smelting in Southeast Asia has not been considered likely by most regional arch...

W. Stanek, M. Szega Silesian University of Technology, Gliwice, Poland L Blacha Silesian University of Technology, Katowice, Poland Metallurgy represents a complex production system of fuel and mineral non-renewable resources transformation. The effectiveness of resource management in metallurgical chains depends on the applied ore grade and on the irreversibility of components of the system. T...

Rare earth metals are used in semiconductors, solar cells and catalysts. This review focuses on the background of oxide metallurgy technologies, the chemical and physical properties of rare earth (RE) metals, the background of oxide metallurgy, the functions of RE metals in steelmaking, and the influences of RE metals on steel microstructures. Future prospects for RE metal applications in steel...
