This book offers a blend of academic and industrial papers on topics including advances in controls and process simulation, ingot defect formation and characterization studies, and process parameter-material properties characterization. The collection includes papers on the following topics: Primary and Secondary Melt Processing including VIM, VAR, ESR, EBCHR, Plasma Melting Physical Property Measurements of Liquid Metals Casting and Solidification of Liquid Metals Modeling of Metallurgical Processes including Heat/Mass Flow Modeling of Liquid Metal and Solidification Ceramic, Slag and Refractory Reactions with Liquid Metals Refining, Evaporation and Gas/Metal Reactions Fundamentals of Reactions Involving Liquid Metals in Productions Processes

This collection of papers is from the 1995 TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition held in Las Vegas Nevada from February 12-16, 1995. It has as its subject matter emerging concepts in aqueous effluent treatment. Membrane separation, reverse osmosis, ion separation, flotation, precipitation and adsorption processes are some of the topics covered.

This 15th Edition of the International Conference on Materials Degradation in Light Water Reactors focuses on subject areas critical to the safe and efficient running of nuclear reactor systems through the exchange and discussion of reseach results as well as field operating and management experience.
