Thermodynamic Optimization of Critical Metals Processing and Recovery: Part II

Thermodynamic Considerations for Improved Renewable Energy Production

“…The 2 This special topic complements the series by inviting original research papers focusing on the research of energy materials and energy efficiency processes. After peer-review by several experts in the field, six original research articles were selected for publication.…”

Technology Metals in the Circular Economy of Cities

“…In 2020 and 2021, JOM advisors of the Recycling and Environmental Technologies Committee and the Process Technology and Modeling Committee of TMS-The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society-organized special topics focusing on improved extractions and recoveries of the strategic metals: ''Cleaner Manufacturing of Critical Metals'' 2 and ''Thermodynamic Optimization of Critical Metals Processing and Recovery''. 3,4 For this special topic, original research and review papers focusing on technology metals recycling were invited, and eight papers were selected for publication after a peer review. The peer-reviewed papers in this special topic should be of interest to a broad readership including those contributing to resource security and promoting sustainable production of strategic metals from the municipal and industrial waste streams.…”
