I think that distillation and electronics processing are both important, but I think that there should also be a category or two for processing of structural materials. The structural materials most people are interested in seem to be metals (largely blade afficionadoes, but a few aerospace types) and composites. The industrial processes page will still hold the chemical and material processes in a general forum, but more categories will help folks find what they want easier, I believe.--Polyparadigm 19:12, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Actually, I'd like to seperate it out into pyro/chemical and mechanical alterations of materials.

I think what you're interested in is a seperate type of category; types of materials. A metals category, a composites category would be nice additions. The Kroll process is only marginally related to titatnium, it's about what you go thru to produce titanium...

One of the best examples of this is the change in aluminium from prices more expensive than silver to recyclable/disposable beverage containers.

I was going to take 207.233.110.67's point about moving the wiki-link for my source (Washington_monument#Construction_details) about the price of aluminium from silver to a reference link, or citation, or footnote or something. However a close reading of this article[1]: leads me to the conclusion that the high price of the point of the Washington Monument was not the commodity, but the casting process.
