Fern --
Perhaps you know Dr. Queneau. I believe that there may be synergies between IPC recycling work and the work
at the Colorado School of Mines. So I am violating protocols and including his brochure.

We get Ag poisoning of soft lead in the secondary smelters, and
silver poisoning of the bugs that remove sewer scale due to incomplete Ag
removal during water treatment (typically associated with circuit boards)

RECYCLING METALS
FROM INDUSTRIAL WASTE
A Short Course and Workshop
with Emphasis on Plant Practice
June 20 - 23, 2005
Golden, Colorado
Sponsored by the Colorado School of Mines
Office of Special Programs and Continuing Education
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
This program, now in its thirteenth year, focuses on current plant practices to convert metal-containing wastes to products. Processors, raw materials, and markets are identified and quantified. Speakers with decades of hands-on experience detail multiple approaches to recycling metals and associated materials - backed up by slides, videos, and the syllabus.
Particular emphasis is given to combinations of physical, hydrometallurgical, and pyrometallurgical processing, along with associated regulations, to facilitate economical recycling. The presentations are on a practical level, focusing on plant operations, with ample opportunity for participant interaction

COMMENTS FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS
I very much enjoyed the recycling short course. I have recommended it to everyone that I talk to.
Colin Ells, Manager, Raw Materials, Falconbridge International U.S., Pittsburgh, PA
A gathering of experts from so many different areas of the business to contribute!
Dave Harpham, Catalyst Services Manager, Johnson Matthey Catalysts, Billingham, U.K.
A great opportunity to learn about other processes that may have carry-over applications. The breaks, lunches, and social were most conducive to networking with other "players".
Jay Jaffe, Vice President, Gulf Chemical and Metallurgical, Freeport, TX
What quality presenters and presentations! The relaxed audience / humor, creativity, and openness of the participants added to the impressive strength of this gathering.
John Broxham, Commercial Director, Jean Goldschmidt International, Brussels, Belgium
Superb quality of information conveyed in the presentations, plus attendees are the cream-of-the-crop in metal recycling.
Fred Steward, President, Micronutrients, Indianapolis, IN
This course is a perfect mixture; nearly every kind of recycling was presented - metals and technology - perfect!
Andreas Nolte, Senior Engineer, Norddeutsche Affinerie AG, Lunen, Germany
