Advances in Chemical Metallurgy - Conference and Workshop, Bombay, India, January 9-13, 1991 Group Travel Award in U.S.and Foreign Currencies

说明：该项目支持17名美国科学家参加将于1991年1月9日至13日在印度孟买举行的国际化学冶金会议和研讨会。印度的组织者是巴巴原子研究中心（BARC）的古普塔博士。会议的主题将包括：金属萃取的物理化学；冶金热力学与动力学的实验技术与测量金属和硫化物的火法和湿法冶金研究进展氧化物和卤化物还原工艺，特别涉及难熔和活性金属的提取和精炼；核金属及核材料加工；稀土金属技术；电热、熔炼、精炼；流化床工艺；矿物加工;化学气相沉积；等离子体和激光在材料加工中的应用；真空冶金;超提纯;计算机在工艺冶金中的应用工艺建模与优化；以及冶金过程的节能和污染控制。这次双边研讨会将确定美国和印度科学家今后在以下广泛议题上的合作领域：工艺冶金和优化；冶金过程中的节能与污染控制；矿物工业试剂；溶剂萃取和电积贱金属。计划出版一份研讨会论文集，分发给感兴趣的美国和印度科学家。范围：鉴于美国和印度的能源和环境问题，会议和研讨会的领域对金属的回收和利用非常重要。这两位合作的科学家和拟议中的美国参与者都是该领域的知名和受人尊敬的研究人员。BARC是印度最大和最具生产力的研究机构之一。这次双边研讨会应该大大提高印度和美国之间科学合作的潜力

Description: This project supports the participation of 17 U.S. scientists at an International Conference and Workshop on Chemical Metallurgy, to be held in Bombay, India, between January 9 and 13, 1991. The Indian organizer is Dr. C.K. Gupta of the Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC). The topics of the conference will include: physical chemistry of metal extraction; experimental techniques and measurement in metallurgical thermodynamics and kinetics; advances in pyro-and hydro-metallurgy of metals and of sulphides; oxide and halide reduction processes with special reference to the extraction and refining of refractory and reactive metals; nuclear metals and materials processing; rare earth metals technology; electrothermics, melting and refining; fluidized bed processes; minerals processing; chemical vapour deposition; plasma and laser applications in material processing; vacuum metallurgy; ultrapurification; computer applications in process metallurgy; process modelling and optimization; and energy conservation and pollution control in metallurgical processes. The binational workshop will identify areas for future collaboration between U.S. and Indian scientists in the following broad topics: process metallurgy and optimization; energy conservation and pollution control in metallurgical processes; reagents in mineral industries; and solvent extraction and electrowinning of base metals. A workshop proceedings is planned to be published and distributed to U.S. and Indian interested scientists. Scope: The field of the conference and workshop is very important for the recovery and utilization of metals in view of the energy and environmental concerns in the U.S. and in India. The two cooperating scientists, and the proposed U.S. participants are all well known and respected researchers in the field. BARC is one of the largest and most productive research organizations in India. The binational workshop should greatly enhance the potential for scientific collaboration between India and the U.S.
