Metallurgy deals with the study of the chemical and physical behavior of metallic elements, their inter-metallic compounds as well as their alloys. It falls under the domain of materials science and engineering. It is used for the separation of metals from their ore. Metallurgy also deals with the application of science to the production of metals and the engineering of metal components. Metallurgy is broadly divided into ferrous metallurgy and non-ferrous metallurgy. Ferrous metallurgy includes the processes and alloys that contain iron. Non-ferrous metallurgy deals with the processes involving metals and alloys such as aluminium, copper, lead, brass, etc. This textbook presents the complex subject of metallurgy in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. Most of the topics introduced in this book cover new techniques and the applications of metallurgy. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
