Mineral Processing and the EnvironmentG.P. Gallios, Kostas A. Matis Springer Science & Business Media, 17 apr 2013 - 403 pagine Mineral processing technologies have been used for decades to protect the environment and many examples of such applications are given here. The book covers four major subject areas: fundamentals; environmental pollution and its prevention; separation processes; and innovative techniques. Audience: Scientists, engineers and technologists conducting both applied and basic research into the different environmental aspects of mineral processing. |
