Announcing the 2005 TMS Annual Meeting and Exhibition Proceedings Titles
Warrendale, PA: In anticipation of another successful Annual Meeting and Exhibition, TMS (The Minerals, Metals, and Materials Society) announces the publication of nine new proceedings volumes to be presented at the society’s 2005 meeting, planned for February 13-17 in San Francisco, CA.
Covering topics from light metals to extractive metallurgy to nanotechnology, the proceedings class of 2005 is one of TMS’s most diverse to date. Drawn from a record number of abstracts submitted to the 2005 TMS Annual Meeting, each proceedings volume is edited by experts on the topics covered.
The 2005 meeting will launch the latest editions of perennial TMS favorites, Light Metals, Magnesium Technology, and EPD Congress, as well as biennial proceedings series, Friction Stir Welding and Processing and Surface Engineering in Materials Science.
Complete publication details appear below for all volumes to be available starting in February 2005. For more information about these new titles, contact Trudi Dunlap at TMS by phone at (724) 776-9000 ext. 275 or by e-mail at tdunlap@tms.org.

ARSENIC METALLURGY: FUNDAMENTALS AND APPLICATIONS
Ramana G. Reddy and V. Ramachandran, editors
ISBN 0-87339-585-9
Approx. 448 pp., illus., index, softcover
Arsenic has long been a problem associated with the extraction of nonferrous metals. During the last decade, a combination of lower-grade ores and environmental concerns has resulted in accelerated technological developments to meet arsenic challenges. This volume presents the necessary technologies to further advance arsenic metallurgy. Treatment of high arsenic-containing ores and metallurgical streams and wastes are given particular attention. Arsenic metallurgical reactions, process, and environmental technologies are also reviewed.
List price: $148
