Proposals should develop a design and elements of an integrated sustainable metallurgical system (including pyro-, hydro-, bio-, electro-chemistry) for metals processing and refining, maximising metal recovery yield and minimising energy consumption and the environmental footprint, while ensuring the economic viability of the entire process. Upstream (pre-processing) and down-stream (treatment/use of metallurgical wastes such as slags, dusts, effluents) interfaces should also be considered.
