Process metallurgy provides academics with the fundamentals of
the manufacturing of metallic materials, from raw materials into
finished parts or products.
Coverage is divided into three volumes, entitled "Process
Fundamentals," encompassing process fundamentals, extractive and
refining processes, and metallurgical process phenomena;
"Processing Phenomena," encompassing ferrous processing;
non-ferrous processing; and refractory, reactive and aqueous
processing of metals; and "Industrial Processes, "encompassing
process modeling and computational tools, energy optimization,
environmental aspects and industrial design.
The work distils 400+ years combined academic experience from
the principal editor and multidisciplinary 14-member editorial
advisory board, providing the 2,608-page work with a seal of
quality.
The volumes will function as the process counterpart to Robert
Cahn and Peter Haasen s famous reference family, "Physical
Metallurgy" (1996)--which excluded process metallurgy from
consideration and which is currently undergoing a major revision
under the editorship of David Laughlin and Kazuhiro Hono
(publishing 2014). Nevertheless, process and extractive metallurgy
are fields within their own right, and this work will be of
interest to libraries supporting courses in the process area.
Synthesizes the most pertinent contemporary developments within
process metallurgy so scientists have authoritative information at
their fingertipsReplaces existing articles and monographs with a
single complete solution, saving time for busy scientistsHelps
metallurgists to predict changes and consequences and create or
modify whatever process is deployed "
