Re-use of surplus foundry sand by composting (LIFE-FOUNDRYSAND)
Start date: Aug 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
Background
The capacity of landfill sites to receive waste remains limited and new ways must be found to reuse waste. While cleaned and recycled soil material can be valuable for agricultural and geo-engineering (e.g. road construction) applications, its acceptance needs to be better established. In Europe, around 18 million tonnes of foundry waste sand i ...

Odour and hazardous emission abatement of foundries (Odourless casting)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
Background
Foundries make metal castings from both ferrous and non-ferrous alloys. Metals are turned into components by melting the metal, pouring it into a mould, and then removing the mould material, or casting. The most commonly used metals are aluminium and cast iron, although steel, magnesium, copper, tin, zinc and other metals can also be used. Most ...

Abatement of VOC load from waste water treatment in mechanical pulping (VOCless waste water)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
Background
In 2007, some 43 million tonnes of wood pulp was produced for papermaking in Europe, representing some 20% of the total world supply. The main grades of wood pulp for papermaking in Europe in 2008 were sulphate pulp (62%), mechanical and semi-chemical pulp (33%) and sulphite pulp (5%). Between 1991 and 2007, while pulp production in Europe incr ...

Control of VOC emissions from mechanical pulping beyond BAT (VOCless pulping)
Start date: Oct 1, 2006, End date: Sep 30, 2009,
...sion densities of VOCs could thus be reduced to 20-40 mg C/m3, much below the current general limits of 50 mg C/m3.
The project worked initially to clarify the problem being faced. The taxonomy of mechanical, thermo-mechanical and chemico-thermo-mechanical pulping processes and their respective VOC emissions were investigated through measurements and literature survey. Current emission-abatement ...
