This unit reviews the fundamental chemistry principles such as thermodynamics and kinetics with specific relevance to extractive metallurgy. This is followed by the topics critically important to extractive metallurgy such as thermochemistry, chemical equilibrium, reaction kinetics and mechanism, minerals processing, hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy, electrometallurgy and reactor design. Tutorials, mass and energy balance calculations, and laboratory exercises in simulation of important process units are designed to supplement the lectures. -- Course Website
