Extractive Metallurgy of Zinc
Sinclair, Roderick J.
This book includes sections on the general historical context of zinc extraction as well as electrolytic process and carbothermic reduction processes. Aspects of major zinc production including costs and energy consumption are also covered in this general reference volume. This volume summarizes the broad configuration of zinc extraction processes and the important aspects of their design and operation as a guide for metallurgists working in the industry. It is also aimed at outlining the alternatives available to handle different situations and the reasons why particular process options might be used. This publication is a valuable resource for students and industry professionals alike.
