We invite you to hear some interesting examples of circular economy in industry and how challenging by-product will be converted into useful product. Together with industrial partners, VTT is coordinating DESULF project supported by funding from EU EIT Raw Materials. The project is planned to run through to the end of 2022 and includes partners in the metal industry and gas purification sector.
The steel industry in Europe generates several thousand of tons of zinc-containing dust each year, which, at its worst, is treated as hazardous waste. The finest material is usually the most difficult to treat and recirculate. New purpose for these dusts is under development in DESULF project.
