Biography: 
Prof.-Dr. Andrey N. Dmitriev - noted scientist in the field of development of scientific bases of complex use of mineral raw material. Has Ended Metallurgical Faculty of the Ural Polytechnic Institute (nowadays Ural Federal University, Ekaterinburg, Russia). The basic scientific direction - development, perfection of mathematical models and their use for the analysis and optimization of processes of working of ores. For the first time has developed and has introduced a method of analytical research of blast furnace smelting on the basis of a complex of the two-dimensional mathematical models essentially supplementing experimental methods used in practice. Has developed scientific bases of application of computer methods for the analysis and perfection of pyrometallurgy processes. Has developed an original technique of the influence estimation of the iron ore raw materials and coke quality on indicators of the blast furnace smelting. Has developed an original technique – the monitoring system of the firebrick lining state of the blast furnace hearth intended for the emergencies prevention. Scientific ideas and development are used at creation and perfection of technologies of processing of the titan-ferrous magnetite, chromic iron ores, silicate-nickel iron ores, siderite iron ores, leucoxene concentrates directed on the elimination of deficiency existing in Ural of the steel-making iron-ore raw material, the raw material for manufacture of pigment dioxide of the titan and scrap. The monitoring system of the firebrick lining state of the blast furnace hearth is developed and introduced on five blast furnaces of China (Silver Medal «Metal-Expo’2014», Russia; Award of the Governor of Sverdlovsk region, 2015, Russia). Implementation of the concept of commissioning of actually Kachkanarsky field of titanomagnetite ores along with use of ores of the Gusevogorsky deposit is offered and begun. Experience of Institute of Metallurgy of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (UB RUS) in the field of processing of titancontaining iron ores is generalized and the creation concept in Russia productions of pigmentary titanium dioxide on the basis of South Ural deposits and the Komi Republic is offered. In addition to the scheme of processing of titanomagnetite iron ores of the Tebinbulak deposit (Republic of Uzbekistan) offered earlier «metallization – electromelting» is offered the scheme «blast furnace – converter»; conditions of a choice and implementation of one of these schemes are formulated. Is the leader of investigations on experimental and mathematical modeling of pyrometallurgy processes, with the industrial enterprises, grants of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. The author of 8 monograph, 12 inventions and more than 350 articles. Participated as the lecturer (including invited lecturer) on many conferences including international. The head of post-graduate students.
