Conference Proceedings
Green Processing 2004
The dilemma of the increasing global demand for materials and the environmental and social impact of their production is a key issue facing the minerals industry and the context for the Green Processing 2004 proceedings. This volume is the second in the Green Processing conference series the first being held in 2002.
Sustainable development, usually defined as the ability to meet the needs of the present without jeopardizing the needs of future generations' is undoubtedly a major challenge facing the world. The minerals industry as the ultimate provider of the material needs of society has an important role in sustainable development, as a large consumer of natural resources and energy, and major producer of wastes and emissions, the industry faces huge environmental and social challenges.
The papers in the Green Processing 2004 proceedings provide an update on recent developments and point directions to the future. The papers include overviews from industry and government perspectives, discussions of specific challenges and approaches, and descriptions of technological breakthroughs which can potentially transform the industry. As a package they provide a comprehensive account of the state of green processing' in the minerals industry.
