Book Description
The Office of Industrial Technologies (OIT) of the U. S. Department of Energy commissioned the National Research Council (NRC) to undertake a study on required technologies for the Mining Industries of the Future Program to complement information provided to the program by the National Mining Association. Subsequently, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health also became a sponsor of this study, and the Statement of Task was expanded to include health and safety. The overall objectives of this study are: (a) to review available information on the U.S. mining industry; (b) to identify critical research and development needs related to the exploration, mining, and processing of coal, minerals, and metals; and (c) to examine the federal contribution to research and development in mining processes.

Book Description
Minerals are an essential component of the nation's resources base towards economic development. Mineral beneficiation presents opportunities for development of new entrepreneurs in large and small mining industries. The developing countries need to concentrate for exploitation of their resources for national development in view of the modern and innovative researches and technological advances within an environment of sustainability consciousness in new world trade regime, etc. Developing countries will play an important role in that expansion on the demand side, as well as on the supply side, given shifts in exploration and mining development investments. For this reason, there is a need for policy makers, scientists, technologists, academics and other industry experts to come together and assess ways and means to realize the potential of the mineral resource base in developing countries and its contribution to industrial development. In this context, the Centre for Science & Technology of the Non-Aligned and Other Developing Countries (NAM S&T Centre) had organised a series of three International Workshops and the latest 3rd International Workshop on 'Mineral Processing and Beneficiation' was held in Harare, Zimbabwe during 11-14 September 2014 jointly with the Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education, Science and Technology Development and the Ministry of Mines and Mining Development of the Republic of Zimbabwe. The workshop was attended by 110 participants from 15 countries representing Afghanistan, Guyana, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, Nigeria, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Zambia and of which 89 delegates were from the host country Zimbabwe. The present book, edited by Dr. G. Padmanabham is a follow up of Harare Workshop comprising 14 scientific and technical papers contributed by the experts from 12 countries. The book is expected to be useful to all the stakeholders in Mineral processing and beneficiation industry, from researchers to policy makers and government officials in the developing countries.
Perspectives on Deep-Sea Mining

ISBN : 3030879828
Book Description
This book is a sequel to ’Deep-Sea Mining: Resource Potential, Technical and Environmental Considerations’ (2017) and ‘Environmental Issues of Deep-Sea Mining: Impacts, Consequences and Policy Perspectives’ (2019), and aims to provide a comprehensive volume on different perspectives of deep-sea mining from specialists around the world. The work is timely, as deep-sea minerals continue to enthuse researchers involved in activities such as ascertaining their potential as alternative sources for critical metals for green energy and other industrial applications, as well as technology development for their sustainable exploration and exploitation, while addressing environmental concerns. With a steady increase in the number of contractors having exclusive rights over large tracts of seafloor in the ‘Area’, i.e. area beyond national jurisdictions, the International Seabed Authority, mandated with the responsibility of regulating such activities, is in the process of developing a code for exploitation of deep-sea minerals. These, coupled with growing interest among private entrepreneurs, investment companies and policy makers, underscore the need for updated information to be made available in one place on the subject of deep-sea mining. The book evaluates the potential and sustainability of mining for deep-sea minerals compared to other land-based deposits, the technologies needed for mining and processing of ores, the approach towards environmental monitoring and management, as well as the regulatory frameworks and legal challenges to manage deep-sea mining activities. The book is expected to serve as an important reference for all stakeholders including researchers, contractors, mining companies, regulators and NGOs involved in deep-sea mining.

Book Description
What are the possibilities for process mining in hospitals? In this book the authors provide an answer to this question by presenting a healthcare reference model that outlines all the different classes of data that are potentially available for process mining in healthcare and the relationships between them. Subsequently, based on this reference model, they explain the application opportunities for process mining in this domain and discuss the various kinds of analyses that can be performed. They focus on organizational healthcare processes rather than medical treatment processes. The combination of event data and process mining techniques allows them to analyze the operational processes within a hospital based on facts, thus providing a solid basis for managing and improving processes within hospitals. To this end, they also explicitly elaborate on data quality issues that are relevant for the data aspects of the healthcare reference model. This book mainly targets advanced professionals involved in areas related to business process management, business intelligence, data mining, and business process redesign for healthcare systems as well as graduate students specializing in healthcare information systems and process analysis.
