XXIV International Mineral Processing Congress
Beijing, China, 24-28 September 2008
The XXIV IMPC was attended by 850 delegates representing 45 countries. Of these almost 400 were from China. The exhibition was represented by 56 companies.
A record 690 papers were presented, 282 in innumerable parallel sessions, and 308 in poster sessions, and these were published in a massive 4-volume proceedings, weighing in at nearly 12 kg- a total of around 10 tonnes of paper, most of which will probably never be looked at, as the organisers also provided a much more convenient CD!
The organising committee, led by the chairman Prof. Wang Dianzuo must be congratulated on the organisation of this massive timetable, and three associated workshops, and also the excellent social events, which included a magnificent ‘Beijing Night’ Dinner show at the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and the final night banquet in the Golden Hall of the Beijing Hotel, the highlight of which was the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award to Prof. Janusz Laskowski (see www.min-eng.com/people/na/69.html).
Delegates are invited to post their views on the congress in this section of the Forum.
