WSN: Solvent Extraction Conference, Melbourne, March 1996



   INTERNATIONAL SOLVENT EXTRACTION CONFERENCE - ISEC `96
         "Value Adding Through Solvent Extraction"

                       17-21 March 1996
                     Melbourne, Australia


 The next in the series of International Solvent Extraction
 Conferences will be held in Melbourne, Australia in March
 1996.  These conferences are held every two to three years
 around the world and bring together those people active in
 the field of solvent extraction.

 The 1990's have presented the world a challenge for inter-
 national competitiveness in all aspects of manufacturing.
 Success in this new world market will be achieved through
 "value added" products produced at lowest cost and best
 quality.  Already adding value to many processes, solvent
 extraction will need to remain competitive with new
 technologies and continue its diversification to provide
 novel economic solution's to tomorrow's challenges.

 The technical programme will include oral and poster
 presentations.  Topics of interest include, but are not
 limited to:
     fundamentals of solvent extraction
     extractants and diluents
     metal extraction
     liquid membranes
     supercritical extraction
     hydrometallurgy
     simulations and modelling
     nuclear fuel applications
     extraction equipment and design
     effluents and the environment
     biotechnology and petrochemical applications
     organic and inorganic product applications
     process economics

 A call for abstracts will be made in mid-1994.  Successful
 authors will then be asked to prepare a manuscript that will
 be published in the conference proceedings.
