Purpose and goal
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The aim is to create the conditions for a climate-neutral, circular and resource-efficient production of aluminum by separating pollutant elements for both primary and secondary aluminum. The goal of the project is to develop an efficient treatment technology for both primary aluminum and secondary aluminum and to be value-creating for the users of the purification process
Expected effects and result
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** At the end of the project, a purification process for carbon dioxide-free primary aluminum production with a high Fe content must be demonstrated on a lab scale. For secondary aluminum purification, process paths must be demonstrated with intended base- or master-alloys identified, linked to industrial needs. For durability and circularity, separate residues, such as filtrate, decanted melt or solid phase, must have deposits such as base- or master-alloys or other products and analyzed from a scaling perspective.
Planned approach and implementation
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The implementation takes place in close collaboration between university, institute and industry in 5 work packages AP1: Management and dissemination to ensure delivery and dissemination of results AP2: Purification methods primary aluminum from process with inert anodes AP3: Purification method for secondary process and product AP4: Separation methods for precipitating residues and oxides AP5: Analysis of upscaling of processes to industrial scale AP6: Circularity optimization to create new use of filtrate and decanted material.
