Objective

This project will investigate the possibilities of using BOF and LD slag for soil enrichment purposes by producing specific fertilizers using a pilot installation. It will also optimize fertilization processes using computer simulation techniques. Tests will be performed on pasture and forest land to check whether heavy metals are released. This research follows on from previous successful work in this domain.
