Funded Activity Summary

Transforming industrial waste into valuable carbons for iron-carbon alloys: Fundamental investigations of structure, impurity reactions and carbon dissolution. This project will deliver the comprehensive science that will enable the ferrous alloy industry to utilize industrial waste as a carbon resource. Novel recycling process will enhance the international competitiveness and environmental sustainability of Australian industries. At the same time, our advances will allow ferrous alloy producers to consume substantial amounts of chemically inert, difficult to recycle industrial/composite waste, and significantly reduce the amount of waste being sent to landfills/illegal dumps. The technology will have a significant impact on the environment through reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, savings on raw materials and enhanced waste recycling.
