Benny and Fred received their technical training as MS Chemical engineers.\u003cbr\u003eBenny Raahauge was employed by FL Schmidt and thus represented a manufacturer and seller of equipment used in that industry. \u003cbr\u003eFred Williams was employed by Alcoa and was assigned management responsibilities in alumina processing research, plant process engineering and running plant production. \u003cbr\u003eBoth individuals have conceived technical improvements to the alumina recovery process as recognized by patents and technical awards, written and presented numerous papers at international technical meetings and have served as chairmen and organizers of international technical sessions.\u003cbr\u003eThe authors of the individual chapters in this book are noteworthy experts from around the world in alumina manufacturing and research technology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44584698773741,"sku":"9783030885885","price":209.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_77545a99-8188-4e3b-bbe7-d46bafd57aab.jpg?v=1702148715","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/smelter-grade-alumina-from-bauxite-history-best-practices-and-future-challenges-9783030885885","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
