Sohn, who works in non-ferrous, ferrous and non-scale materials processing Articles on Materials processing include:
Extraction of metal from ore by dissolving the metal (as one of its salts) and then recovering it from the solution. The operations usually involved are leaching (dissolving in water), commonly with additional agents; separating the waste and purifying the , with an article by Sohn on his mentors and early associates. Other topics in volume one, with papers on non-ferrous high-temperature processing, include kinetics, thermodynamics thermodynamics, branch of science concerned with the nature of heat and its conversion to mechanical, electric, and chemical energy. Historically, it grew out of efforts to construct more efficient heat engines—devices for extracting useful work from expanding , recycling and recovery, waste treatment, ferro alloys and titanium extraction, alloys properties and refining, and experimental measurements and techniques. The second volume focuses on iron and steel making, while the papers in the third cover special materials and aqueous and electrochemical electrochemical /elec·tro·chem·i·cal/ (-kem´i-k'l) pertaining to interaction or interconversion of chemical and electrical energies. e·lec·tro·chem·i·cal adj. processing, electrochemistry electrochemistry, science dealing with the relationship between electricity and chemical changes. Of principal interest are the reactions that take place between electrodes and the electrolytes in electric and electrolytic cells (see electrolysis), as well as the and molten salts, and ceramics, refractories, and polymers. Volume four gives attention to extraction and processing, and iron and steel recycling and waste treatment are the focus of the fifth volume. The last few volumes cover aqueous and electrochemical processing; industrial practice; sulfide smelting, technology, and analysis; and legal, management and environmental issues. Some of the articles are keynote speeches or abstracts only. Each volume has both an author and subject index. ([c]20062005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
