Summary
subject is recited with the intention of understanding of the influence of metallurgical production on the environment
Subject is read with the purpose to understand problems of the influence of metallurgical production on the environment (coking plants, blast furnaces, steel plants, rolling mill plants). Classification of these wastes from the aspect of their formation, properties, treatment, possibility of recycling and further utilisation including conditions for their deposition on the dumps.
