Processing of fine particles has presented numerous challenges to scientists and engineers for many years. Considerable progress has al ready been made in meeting these challenges across various fields of applications around the world. Research on every aspect of fine particle processing has gained momentum in recent years, resulting in the development of new processes, improved products, and better understanding of the science and engineering fundamentals of fine particles. This symposium addressed the recent progress in fine particles processing, particularly in the production of minerals for chemicals, pigments and metal production, ceramic materials, and fossil fuels. This book represents the edited proceedings of the International Symposium on Advances in Fine Particles Processing, where selected peer-reviewed papers describe current practices, review the state of the art and report original fundamental and applied research on fine particle production, sizing, characterization of the interface, fluid flow, and interparticle colloidal interactions, leading to dispersion, flocculation and flotation. Processing of fine particles by multi-chemical, physical and biological phenomena has also been addressed. Accordingly, the book consists of seven parts, with each part addressing a specific topic. Part One deals with production of fine particles by comminu tion methods where different milling practices, mathematic modeling and physical chemical control methods are reported. Part Two covers particle flow properties in various fluids. Part Three addresses surface and colloidal phenomena in fine particle processing, while Part Four continues this topic but with emphasis on clay minerals.

This volume contains the proceedings of an international symposium organised by the Metallurgical Society of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. The aims of the symposium were to discuss fundamental and practical aspects of the technology for the production of fine inorganic particles for the metals, industrial minerals and advanced ceramics sectors, to highlight particle characterization methods and developments, and to review major advances in the processing and extractive metallurgy of finely-sized minerals. 96 conference papers by authors from 19 countries addressed such topics as particle morphology and size analysis, physical and chemical methods for producing fine particles, processing of minerals using gravity, magnetic and electrostatic separation, flotation and flocculation, phase separation involving fine particles, and the hydrometallurgy and pyroprocessing of fine particles. This book will be of interest to mineral processing scientists and engineers, ceramicists, extractive metallurgists and chemical engineers, who are faced with the increasing significance of inorganic fine particles either as valuable products or as materials to be treated in mineral processing systems.

This book summarizes the most significant advancements of plasma science in allied technologies. It highlights the most recent developments and important advances in plasma science and technology. It is important for all civilizations to use more cost-effective and eco-friendly plasma technology for industrial, clinical/biotechnology, wastewater, and agricultural applications. Traditional techniques are not effective, and thus, this book examines the challenges that must be solved before novel plasma technology can be successfully used in the future. It also examines aspects of fine particle plasmas, including their fundamental physics, mechanisms, design, allied technologies, and novel methods. The most promising plasma-based devices and nano-plasmas allow us to change approaches in industries such as medicine and agriculture due to their thermophysical (transport and thermodynamics), wave behaviors, as well as external electric and magnetic, acoustic, light, temperature, and other properties. This book highlights recent advances in energy materials, semiconductor systems, plasma medicine, agricultural plasma and food processing, green plasma fusion energy, space science, plasma technology for the conversion of CO2, green energy, and more. Moreover, it examines plasma technology as a key advancement in modern medicine and health care.
