Hydrometallurgy Conference 2014

Hydrometallurgy 2014 will provide a forum for the dissemination of all research relating to hydrometallurgical extraction, purification and recovery of base and precious metals. Papers relating to: waste treatment and minimization; environmental compliance and monitoring; automation, sensors and control in hydrometallurgy are also welcome. Updates on current hydrometallurgical operations, new project execution; health and safety initiatives and case studies relating to all aspects of hydrometallurgy are also sought.

The meeting will build on the success of five preceding conferences:

• 1st International Symposium on Hydrometallurgy held in 1963-Dallas, Texas, USA
