Project description
Recovering valuable raw materials from ashes
Ashes from the incineration of biomass, municipal solid waste and sewage sludge are underutilised. In Europe, approximately 25 million tonnes annually end up mostly in landfills. As a result, a significant number of metals, nutrients, rare-earth elements and industrially valuable minerals contained in the ashes are lost. The EU-funded AshCycle project will investigate new methods for recovering useful elements contained in the ashes. Recovered raw materials will be processed into a form suitable for industrial use. Pilot demonstration projects will be carried out in Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Switzerland and South Africa.
