22. International Biohydrometallurgy Symposium

Call for Papers is open - submit your contribution until 10 January 2017

The biannual International Biohydrometallurgy Symposium is the global forum for experts from academia and industry active in the fields of biomining, bioleaching and bioremediation. These technologies have a high potential to establish environmentally favourable processes for the recovery of primary and secondary precious and base metal resources as well as the remediation of exploited mining sites.

Covering all aspects, IBS is the place to meet with biologists, engineers and chemists as well as mining experts to discuss the latest scientific and technological trends. Academics, students, researchers, practitioners as well as representatives of industry and institutions are invited to discuss their research, develop new concepts, exchange information about innovations and best practice cases.

The IBS 2017 will be held in Freiberg in Saxony. The city has been a centre of the mining industry for centuries and is home of the Bergakademie, the University of Mining and Technology established in 1765. The historical flair of the city where the mining history is ever-present together with the state-of-the-art science facilities and industry makes Freiberg a special destination with many interesting sights that will stimulate exchange and discussion.

The scientific programme will consist of oral and poster presentations.

Following topics will be of interest:

Heap/dump bioleaching
Tank/reactor bioleaching
Other methods and fundamentals of bioleaching (reductive, in situ, electrochemical, ….)
Metal-cycling and extremophilic microorganisms
Metal biosorption / bioaccumulation, bioremediation and recycling
Molecular approaches (omics...) and biofilms

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
