Objective
The project developed by VALOREF aims to set up a complete and specialized process on management and recycling of scrap refractories engendered during the glass furnace demolition. The start up of the installations will allow the severe treatment of 20.000 tons/year of scrap refractories and will permit to double the actually part of recycling materials. The project will definitively bring an ecologically good solution, economically viable and techologically reliable, to refractory scraps problem.
The project developed by VALOREF aims to set up a complete and specialised process line of scrap refractories management and recycling of the product engendered by the demolition of the glass industry's furnaces.
The project inclludes the industrial validation of special processes and know-how on site at VALOREF in the industrial area of La Croisière at Bollène and the start of specialised installations on the river port of Bollène. The pilot plant's capacity at the river plant will be of 20.000 tons/year.
The whole process is as following: selective demolition of the furnace, transportation of all the materials by river boats or railway wagons, check in and analyses of scraps, sorting by categories and destinations, crushing and grinding, cleaning of some refractories, control and packing of secondary raw materials for recycling, treatment and management of non recyclable materials before evacuation. This project garanties a severe treatment of this waste: 50% will be recycled as secondary raw materials, 40% as gravels and 10% will be eliminated on special disposal areas. The average cost of that treatment is 325 FRF per ton treated from furnace site to the end of the process.
