Offered to

Metallurgical and Materials Engineering

Course Objective

The aims of this course are to give, information about hydrometallurgical processes and applied raw materials and their properties. Students will be familiarized with the pretreatment processes applied raw materials in order to extraction by hydrometallurgical processes, and concepts and their applications, in hydrometallurgical processes, related to thermodynamics and metallurgical thermochemistry process will be explained. The industrial applications of hydrometallurgical processes in extraction of some of the important metals will be introduced. The affects of hydrometallurgical processes on environment will be discussed.
