MINERAL LOOP

HOW TO CAPTURE AND SEQUESTER INDUSTRIAL CO2 THROUGH MINERAL WASTE CARBONATION?

GreenWin presents MINERAL LOOP :

Mineral waste constitutes by far the most important mass of waste in Europe. Unlike
other waste streams, it is rarely recycled, and most of the time is simply sent to landfill.


With a view to developing a circular economy relevant to mineral waste streams, the
MINERAL LOOP project aims to conceive, develop, set up and operate an industrial pilot
unit for the transformation of mineral waste into secondary products able to be reused
in different relevant sectors.


The processes used will be based, amongst other things, on the principle of carbonation,
i.e. the capture of CO2 and its fixation in alkaline mineral materials, now reconditioned
and stabilised.


The resulting products will be commercialised and valorised by the industrial partners
involved in the project.

Les « + » :

  • Transformation of a rarely recycled waste stream into resources able to be valorised and commercialised.
  • Reduction in the quantity of waste frequently being sent to landfill.
  • Positive CO2 impact with the capture and storage of industrial CO2.

Project supported by the following consortium:

  • Project sponsor: Carmeuse
  • The company: Carmeuse; Revatech; Lessines Industries; Tradecowall
  • CRA: CTP
  • Universities and Higher Education Institutions ULg - PEPS / GeMMe
