Summary
Reading this course the students will have an overview of current recycling of waste and learn about world-wide classical recycling technologies. Material sources focus on secondary materials and their processing. Theoretical basics of pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical and electrometallurgical processes are followed by recycling technologies of regeneration of selected utility ingredients from production, processing and amortization refuse, including the issue of ecotoxicology.
