A free hybrid workshop was held on 19/10/2023 at Fraunhofer-Institute for laser technology ILT in Aachen, Germany and via MS Teams. The workshop presented 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. 

BFI presented the REVaMP project at the ECOMONDO Expo in Rimini Fiera contributing to the booth of the European Comission on 08/11/2023.

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.
