Raw material preparation for clean steel production
The concepts to be developed under this topic are expected to address one or more of the following areas;enhanced utilisation of scrap, through improved scrap sorting and removal of scrap pollution, by new detecting technologies; technologies allowing upgrade processes in low grade iron ores to make them suitable for pelletisation or direct use in existing steelworks to address the issue of the availability of high grade iron ores which is expected to become a more critical factor in the coming years as well as broadening the types of ore grades that can be utilized from different sources; application of cold bonded agglomerate: binders, raw materials composition and processing conditions for the use of low quality iron ore grades.
