The first part of the subject deals with basic processes of iron production in blast furnace, alternative processes of direct reduction of iron ores and processes of steel production, including processing of iron and steel semi-finished products. The second part of the subject is focused on processes and technologies of common as well as rare non-ferrous metals. Treatment of some types of metal-bearing wastes is mentioned, too.
Aim of the course -
Last update: Dvořák Petr Ing. Ph.D. (14.01.2018)

Students will be able to: know about technologies of iron and steel production, direct iron ore reduction processes and technologies of production of basic and other chosen non-ferrous metals.
