The main activities of the project were: research in technological processing (in laboratory and pilot scales) for producing of alumina from alunite, bauxite and alumosilicate materials, plus techno-economical evaluations. These activities had been conducted with co-operation of Alcan International, Aluterv of Hungary (bauxite - alumina processing), VAMI Institution of former Soviet Union in San-Petersburg (alunite-alumina and nepheline-sienite alumina processing), and Department of Mining and Metallurgy - Technical University of Cracow-Poland (alumosilicate-alumina processing).

During this time I was also involved with the design and feasibility study of an aluminum smelter in Iran. This project had been carried out by the cooperation of Alcan International as our consultant.

1970 - 1975: Mining engineer, in charge of safety in Kerman coal mines, chief of Dehmolla coal mine, chief of Tazareh and Mamedueh coal mines, subsidiaries of NISCO (National Iranian Steel Co.). All mining activities in these regions were conducted with the co-operation of the former Soviet and French experts.

5. INVITED AS GUEST PROFESSOR

I was invited by University of Savoie, France as visiting professor since 2011. This mission has extended until June 2013.

11. SUPERVISION OF CASE STUDIES AND PROJECTS WORKS

I have been supervisor for more than 300 projects and case-studies. Since 1996 the following case studies and project works have been carried out at Chalmers University of Technology under my supervision:

I. Case Studies

Case study with 10 credit points was an important part of the International Master Program “Environmentally Sustainable Process Technology” at the School of Chemical Engineering.
