#WasteRecovery Real value is found where least expected 🌱

In the #steel industry, million tons of slag are not being reused ever year, representing a severe environmental problem, but also a huge amount of available material for potential #recycling.

In collaboration with @TenarisDalmine, we have developed a technology to handle white slag from #EAF to make it reusable ♻️

#WasteRecovery From a linear perspective ➡️ the #steelmaking process implies a great amount of unusable materials to be disposed.
At #Tenova, we like to think circular ♻️ and find value in by-products. Take the iRecovery®: a unique system for recovering the thermal power available in the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) waste gas, with an impact also on CO2 reduction.

"The use of the recovered energy drives a reduction of CO2 emission in the #steel production" says @Enzo Chiarullo. Read more on Metals Insights.

“Disruptive” is how @Paolo Gaboardi defined PDT™, #Pomini’s flagship technology that has recently obtained a prestigious environmental certification for the Life Cycle Assessment activity conducted to measure its #environmentalimpact.

This machine represents a revolution in texturing technology, aiming to innovate in full respect of eco-friendly principles, with significant advantages in terms of #safety, control features, operations costs and #sustainability. Read more on Metals Insights.

What is the #environmentalimpact of a technology? #Pomini decided to measure it for its flagship solution PDT™ by conducting a Life Cycle Assessment (#LCA), obtaining the EPD® certification.

🥇 This represented the first study of this kind for #metal finishing machines: an important milestone for Pomini, which led the definition of the Product Category Rules for this type of technology.
