BitKOIN - CO2-reduced binding agent through thermochemical conversion of mineral wool waste combinations

In the BitKOIN project, conceptual, experimental and model research activities are conducted in order to develop a substitute material for ground-granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). First, mineral wool waste and other mineral residues, which are required as additives to achieve the desired chemistry, are sampled representatively. The materials are then characterized chemically, mineralogically and physically and are additionally classified according to waste regulations. By thermochemical conditioning of the mineral wool waste, combined with the other waste materials, the "Huettensand 2.0" (GGBS 2.0) is developed. The project aims to develop the "Huettensand 2.0" , a durable GGBS substitute.

CreeS - Chromium-free Slag

The project develops an innovative technological approach to producing chromium-free stainless steel slags (EDS) for sustainable cement and steel industries. By removing heavy metals and recycling material streams, it enables resource-efficient utilization, reducing CO₂ emissions, conserving natural resources, and promoting the circular economy. The comprehensive process delivers ecological and economic benefits, applicable to various slag types.
