项目摘要

This project brings together partners from glass (Glass Futures, Encirc, Calumite, Glass Technology Services, Diageo), steel (British Steel, the Materials Processing Institute, Tata Steel) and cement (LKAB Minerals, Hanson) sectors to develop a novel process to combine waste-materials into blast furnace slag to 'up-grade' low-quality materials into an enhanced Ground-Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS), increasing the volume of GGBS available for the cement and glass sectors, whilst creating a new value-added product enabling increased percentages to be used in glass-manufacturing.GGBS, sold into the glass sector as 'Calumite', is widely used in container-glass manufacture, displacing silica-sand and limestone, reducing process CO2 emissions, increasing melting rate and reducing furnace energy. Calumite also provides sulphides which refine the molten glass, increasing product quality.In the cement industry, GGBS partially substitutes Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). OPC is made in a high-temperature, energy-intensive process from limestone and other raw materials, thus GGBS offers a significant reduction in energy and CO2 emissions.The project will utilise pilot scale equipment at Glass Futures and the Materials Processing Institute to develop and optimise this new technology, before undertaking a series of industrial-scale trials at British Steel and various glass manufacturing plants, including Encirc. Large-scale feasibility studies will also be undertaken by LKAB to assess the suitability of these new materials for use in cement applications.The project will engage the paper and ceramics sectors to identify waste-streams that could be utilised in the e-GGBS process and explore ceramics applications which might benefit from e-GGBS.

该项目汇集了来自玻璃（Glass Futures、Encirc、Calumite、Glass Technology Services、Diageo）、钢铁（British Steel、材料加工研究所、塔塔钢铁）和水泥（LKAB Minerals、Hanson）行业的合作伙伴，开发一种新工艺，将废料与高炉矿渣结合，将低质量材料“升级”为增强型粒状高炉矿渣 (GGBS)，从而增加可用于生产的 GGBS 量水泥和玻璃行业，同时创造了一种新的增值产品，提高了玻璃制造中的使用比例。GGBS 以“Calumite”的形式销往玻璃行业，广泛用于容器玻璃制造，取代硅砂和石灰石，减少过程二氧化碳排放，提高熔化率并减少熔炉能源。方钙石还提供硫化物，可精炼熔融玻璃，提高产品质量。在水泥行业，GGBS 部分替代普通波特兰水泥 (OPC)。 OPC 是由石灰石和其他原材料通过高温、能源密集型工艺制成的，因此 GGBS 可以显着减少能源和二氧化碳排放。该项目将利用 Glass Futures 和材料加工研究所的中试规模设备来开发和生产优化这项新技术，然后在英国钢铁公司和包括 Encirc 在内的各个玻璃制造厂进行一系列工业规模的试验。 LKAB 还将开展大规模可行性研究，以评估这些新材料在水泥应用中的适用性。该项目将与造纸和陶瓷行业合作，以确定可在 e-GGBS 工艺中利用的废物流，以及探索可能受益于 e-GGBS 的陶瓷应用。
