Mr Richard Willemsen (Danieli Corus)08/10/2025, 14:00Environmental and energy aspects in iron and steelmakingOral Presentation
In many wastewater and process-water systems water chemicals are used to control the water quality. Typically a mix of pH control chemicals, herbicides, inhibitors, coagulants and oxidizing agents are used. A newly developed chemical called FerSol, which contains Ferrate (VI), combines several functions as it acts as oxidizing agent, coagulant and, as a side effect, it eliminates certain...

Martin Hubrich (VDEh-Betriebsforschungsinstitut GmbH)08/10/2025, 14:40Environmental and energy aspects in iron and steelmakingOral
A sufficient water supply forms the base for a continuous production in iron and steel industry. Due to climate change, limitations of water outtake occurred during summer periods as well as changes of the freshwater composition to higher salt contents increasing the corrosion potential. Beside this, EU water directive, national framework and EU goals as “Zero Waste” or Zero Discharge” lead to...
