Foundation industries work towards industrial symbiosis
Bringing together partners from across the foundation industries, the EnviroAsh project aims to investigate waste ashes, slags and mineral by-products as a source of secondary raw materials.
The project team, led by Glass Technology Services, consisting of partners from across the foundation industry supply chain and academia, hosted an interactive workshop to discuss opportunities for reusing waste materials, identify the barriers associated with secondary raw materials and address factors implementing application.
The event was widely attended by the colleagues from across the six foundation industries (glass, ceramics, steel, paper, cement and chemicals), as well as representatives from academia, government agencies, and the energy sector.
