Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The objective of this Special Issue is to collate pioneering studies that document recent advancements in the bulk utilization of metallurgical solid wastes. We welcome submissions focusing on mineralogy research and application/treatment of metallurgical solid wastes (steel slag, desulfurized fly ash, red mud, anode slime, tailings, etc.), including the cross-industry collaborative resource utilization of multi-source solid wastes, and new near-zero waste approaches of metallurgy. We particularly invite papers on recycling and reusing, as well as the sustainability and inexpensive production of high-value, clean products using metallurgical solid wastes.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.
