Free hybrid workshop on 19/10/2023 from 09:00 – 15:00 at Fraunhofer-Institute for laser technology ILT in Aachen, Germany and via MS Teams: In the European metal making industry, large amounts of energy and resources are used, to a high percentage also secondary raw materials which strongly vary in their properties. This workshop will present sensors, equipment and software tools for process control which were developed in the REVaMP project to characterise the charge materials and to optimise the corresponding melting processes. For registration and more information: REVaMP_Workshop

Neutron sensor for analysis of metal scrap was developed by NCBJ, SYSKON and POLON and successfully tested at the labs of NCBJ for analysis of aluminium chips provided by Grupal Art.

Aluminium scrap preheating system operated with Waste Derived Fuel (WDF) was built by GHI and installed at pilot rotary furnace of Refial for first plant trials.

LIBS system for analysis of metal scrap was developed by ILT and LSA and successfully tested onsite at the Aluminium refining plant of Grupal Art. Next, the system will be applied at Exide for analysis of lead scrap and then at ArcelorMittal Bremen for analysis of steel scrap.
