Technical Program

MOLTEN12 technical program is comprised of plenary, parallel and poster sessions. Recent innovations, developments, research and case studies related to the following areas will be discussed:

• Thermodynamic properties and phase diagrams (experimentation, modeling and applications) of ionic melts 
• Physical properties (viscosities, thermal diffusivities, and etc) of slags, fluxes and salts 
• Slags, fluxes and salts in ferrous and nonferrous metallurgical industry
• Novel applications of slags, fluxes and salts
• Interfacial and process phenomena involving foaming, bubble formation and drainage
• Fluxes and slags in welding processes 
• Glass properties and their industrial applications
• Refractory properties and performance
• Refractory erosion and refractory /metal/slag interactions 
• Recycling and further utilization of metallurgical slags 
• Models and their applications in process improvement and optimization 
• New technology development and process improvement 
• Low carbon technology and process development
