The goal		Through this course students will learn the basic unit operation in extractive metallury, pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical and electrometallurgical processes.
The outcome		Individual performing of energy and material balance calculations. Critical approach to problem solving. Understanding of techniques utilized in extractive metallury; processes applied for production of non ferrous metalls.
Contents
Contents of lectures		Drying and mineral dressing (crushing, milling, flotation). High-temperature metallurgical processes (roasting, smelting, converting) taking into account the thermodynamics and kinetics of the interaction between individual phases (metal, matted, slag, gas), various reactors and techniques for carrying out these processes through examples of industrial production of selected metals. Metal refining: distillation, fire refining, zone refining, liquidation, cupellation. Hydrometallurgical processes, in situ leaching, heap leaching, percolation, agitation leaching, purification of leaching solution, obtaining metals from leaching solution (ion exchange, precipitation, cementation, solvent extraction). Processes in electrometallurgy (electrorefining, electrowinning). Seminary work.
Contents of exercises		Tasks for calculation, charge calculation, determination of material and energy balance of the process
