Organizers

The organizers of the Thematic Conference “Materials Science in Non-Ferrous Industry” are the Łukasiewicz Research Network – Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals and the Association of Engineers and Technicians of Non-Ferrous Metals.

The Łukasiewicz Research Network – Institute of Non-ferrous Metals is a prestigious research centre with more than 70 years of expertise for the non-ferrous metals sector.
The scope of Łukasiewicz – IMN activities covers R&D works aimed at the development of new materials and technologies, optimization of industrial processes, modernization of production lines, construction of devices, measurements, and analytical services.
The offered technological and technical solutions cover all phases of the production and processing of non-ferrous metals, from ore processing to pyro- and hydrometallurgical technologies, materials production technologies, post-production waste recycling, and environmental protection processes.
The comprehensiveness of services provided by Łukasiewicz – IMN is an attractive offer not only for the non-ferrous metals industry but also for other economy sectors using advanced technologies.


The Association of Engineers and Technicians of Non-Ferrous Metals (SITMN), is an organization of a scientific, technical and managerial nature, associating on a voluntary basis engineers and technicians of professions related to the non-ferrous metals industry. The Association brings also together universities, research institutes, design offices, commercial and service units and other organizational units included in this industry or acting on its behalf. The Association inspires and supports activities aimed at the development of enterprises, and scientific and research units. It is a platform of knowledge and information about the latest achievements in the field of metallurgy, non-ferrous metals processing and recycling.

Introduction to the Conference

Non-ferrous metals constitute a group of strategic materials. They represent nearly 3/4 of the currently known elements, they are omnipresent and occur in all sectors of the economy.

The aim of the conference is to concentrate the scientific and industrial communities on the most advanced problems related to the manufacturing and processing of non-ferrous metals. The conference is addressed to representatives of the non-ferrous metals industry, scientific institutions and organizations dealing with modern materials and technologies in the non-ferrous metals industry. Its goal is to create a platform for exchanging experience and knowledge. The subject of the conference ” Materials Science in Non-Ferrous Industry” is focused on issues related to the latest directions in the implementation of modern solutions in the non-ferrous metals industry.
