Project Information

Grant agreement ID: 7210-AA-824

Project closed

Start date 1 October 1996

End date 31 March 2000

Funded under

• Medium-term guidelines for the ECSC steel RTD programme of research and pilot/demonstration projects, 1996-2002

Total cost € 761 000,00

EU contribution € 456 600,00

Coordinated by

British Steel plc
United Kingdom

Objective

A high temperature metallic filter has recently been developed. A pilot unit using this new filter will be installed on a full-size sinter plant to evaluate the filter in an industrial application. Other partners in the project will evaluate various filter materials as well as the implications of the metallic filter on recycling dusts collected and on the possibility of improving sinter strand operations to minimise the generation of corrosive and polluting components in the gas stream.
