Subject Description | This subject involves the application of thermodynamics, rate phenomena and reactor engineering principles to the analysis, design and simulation of metallurgical processes. Advanced aspects of physico-chemical principles of oxide and sulphide smelting. Properties of slags and important phase diagrams. Physico-chemical principles of metal refining and application. Bath smelting and flash smelting. Environmental control. Mathematical and physical modelling of metallurgical processes. Simulation of processes such as reduction of oxides, roasting of sulphides, flash smelting and heat flow in metal treatment processes. |
Assessment | One class test during semester two contributing 20% to the final mark, as well as an examination not exceeding three-hours at the end of semester two, contributing 80% to the final mark |
