Applied Physics and Materials Science

Metals, Mining, Metallurgy and Materials

In the discipline of metallurgy, material science is also important. Powder metallurgy encompasses a wide range of procedures that employ metal powders to make materials or pieces. They can reduce costs by eliminating or greatly reducing the requirement for metal removal processes. Pyro metallurgy is the heating of minerals, metallurgical ores, and concentrates to cause physical and chemical changes in the materials that allow for the recovery of valuable metals.
