During the past several years there has been keen interest and activity in two fields of the fused salt chemistry, namely molten salt extractive metallurgy and high-temperature fuel cells. This work contains the proceedings from a workshop on the electrochemical technology of molten salts. The required fundamental investigations for improving industrial processes are necessarily devoted to all aspects of the reactivity in molten salts. It represents the relevant disciplines of electrochemistry, spectroscopy and computer modelling.
