Description

The technical objective of the research cooperation is the resource-efficient and environmentally sound material and energy recovery of previously insufficiently used waste fractions, the conservation of natural resources and the minimization of waste disposal. Specifically, this objective is to be achieved by recovering and exploiting valuable metals from mixed, composite-rich waste fraction (for example electronic scrap, shredder light fractions, fractions from the building and infrastructure stock etc.) while at the same time using the plastic part of the waste materially and/or energetically. Also, the (metallurgical) use of the coke, which is obtained in the thermochemical treatment of the composite fractions, should be considered.
