Win up to $USD 93,000 worth of pilot testing for your pyrometallurgical idea - only at MOLTEN 2024!

In collaboration with AusIMM, the Glencore Technology’s ISASMELT™ team are giving away up to $USD 93,000 worth of pilot testing for your pyrometallurgical idea in celebration of MOLTEN 2024 being held in Brisbane, Australia. 

All you have to do is answer questions about what you would test and why. Visit the official competition entry form page here!

To coincide with the conference, we are offering two exclusive breakfast and learn events - 

  1. How to Recover Critical Metals from Consumer Products using ISACYCLE™
  2. How to test new processes and materials in Glencore Technology’s ISASMELT™ Test Hub
     

Technology Manager Dr Stanko Nikolic has also been invited to do a plenary presentation. Stanko will present "Fusion of Molten Phase R&D into the Metallurgical Industry to Drive Circularity" on Tuesday 18 June, from 9:10am – 9:50am.

Workshops

  • How to Recover Critical Metals from Consumer Products using ISACYCLE™

    Date: Tuesday 18th of June
    Time: 7:30 AM – 8:30 AM
    Venue: Glencore Technology Office, 180 Ann St, Level 29, Brisbane City QLD 4000
    Catering: Beverages and refreshments provided

    Join Dr Stuart Nicol, as he shows that the ISACYCLE™ is the cleanest, most efficient method of copper recycling available today. 

    As e-scrap and copper recycling become a global focus, operations are turning to proven technologies to assist with upgrading their own operations.

    The ISACYCLE™ is a proven, effective technology that can be applied to e-scrap projects of any size – and this workshop will show you how. 
    •    Learn the chemistry and the overall flowsheet behind an e-scrap and secondary copper recycling facility.
    •    Explore the advantages and disadvantages of different techniques, equipment, and furnaces.
    •    Connect with the ISACYCLE™ team to discuss your own projects and get advice from the experts on how to develop your own e-scrap project.

  • How to test new processes and materials in Glencore Technology’s ISASMELT™ Test Hub

    Date: Wednesday the 19th of June 
    Time: 7:30 AM – 8:30 AM
    Venue: Glencore Technology Office, 180 Ann St, Level 29, Brisbane City QLD 4000
    Catering: Beverages and refreshments provided

    Join Dr Stuart Nicol, as he discusses how to do smelting pilot testwork.

    As raw materials and smelter feeds become more complex and challenging to process, more pilot testing work is needed to develop new processes and flowsheets.

    The Glencore Technology test hub provides a low cost and fast pilot testing solution for smelting processes.

    At this workshop you will:

    •    Learn why pilot testing is needed for pyrometallurgical processes with examples of pilot tests and the outcomes from these tests
    •    Explore how a pilot campaign is executed, from receiving the feed materials, through the testing process and then finally the reporting and economic assessment
    •    Connect with the ISASMELT™ team to discuss your own projects and get advice from the experts on how to develop your pilot campaign
