The main objective of the project “Retrofitting Equipment for Efficient Use of Variable Feedstock in Metal Making Processes” (REVaMP) was to develop, adapt and apply novel retrofitting technologies to cope with the increasing variability and to ensure an efficient use of the feedstock in terms of materials and energy. This was exemplarily demonstrated within three different use cases from the metal making industry. Due to the industrial relevance, the use cases were chosen from electric and oxygen steelmaking, aluminium refining and lead recycling. The performance of the different technologies was assessed, and the benefits were quantified.
The project was funded in the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 869882
