Summary
Details

""Metallurgy of White Metal Scrap and Residues"" is an authoritative technical treatise focusing on the industrial processes involved in reclaiming and refining non-ferrous alloys. This work provides a comprehensive overview of the treatment of white metal scrap, including lead, tin, and antimony alloys. The text delves into the practical aspects of smelting, refining, and the chemical principles governing the separation of residues.

Designed for metallurgists and industrial chemists, it covers various techniques for maximizing the recovery of valuable metals from industrial waste. Edmund Richard Thews emphasizes efficient production methods and the economic significance of recycling materials. Through detailed analysis of furnace operations and metallurgical reactions, the book remains a significant historical reference for the evolution of recycling technologies and the systematic handling of industrial by-products. Its focus on the practical application of chemical engineering in the field of metallurgy makes it a valuable resource for understanding the foundations of modern scrap metal processing.
