This volume recognizes the growing role of solvent extraction and electrowinning technology in the world copper business. This well-established, remarkable hydrometallurgical achievement fills an important role in our technical ability to extract copper in an efficient and cost-effective way.This proceedings documents the present status of the SX-EW business. It represents a substantial body of historical, scientific, engineering, and commercial information regarding the growth and application of the technology.Sections include: The Business and Technology of SX-EW, Theory and Practice of Copper Leaching, Theory and Practice of Tankhouse Operations, and Theory and Practice of Solvent Extraction. Booknews Twenty papers from a conference for which no date nor location is revealed synthesize the current state of an area of the copper industry, and the lessons learned over the three decades since the first commercial operation began. They consider such aspects as economic considerations, environmental compliance, design strategies for heap leach in extreme environments, the evolution of cathode quality at Phelps Dodge Mining Company, and the design and operation of a solvent extraction plant. Some include bibliographies. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
