Valorization of iron foundry sands and dust in the ceramic tile production process (LIFE FOUNDRYTILE)
Start date: Sep 3, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
Background
France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Turkey generate around 4.1 million tonnes of iron foundry sands and dust wastes every year.

New Induction Wireless Manufacturing Efficient Process for Energy Intensive Industries (NIWE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
NIWE project will demonstrate a new production process able to decrease the embodied energy of the foundry products by over 25%, reducing drastically its carbon footprint. The demonstration will be performed in the aluminium, iron and steel sectors.The expected energy efficiency gains are due to a new furnace that, by means of a power transmission system based on induction, will allow a highly fle ...
