Emerging technologies, integration with proven processes, and the challenges they represent
by Frank Stephenson
International Journal of Environmental Technology and Management (IJETM), Vol. 5, No. 2/3, 2005

Abstract: This paper will focus on integration of a new, emerging technology with the old, proven methods to affect a hybrid process. By doing so, the net effect is often a cost-effective compromise and a relatively painless solution to otherwise difficult problems. The concept is simple, but mixing the new with the old is not without risks. We shall also examine the pitfalls of bringing a metal recovery process to full-scale implementation before the intricacies and nuances of the process chemistry are well enough understood.
