Abstract

In Europe about 600,000 tons of dusts are generated in EAF steelmaking. Valuable metals like zinc, lead, chromium and nickel are recovered from these dusts by external processors, usually. In the past, only few attempts on internal recycling have been made. Within a Brite EuRam II project, the economical and ecological benefits of the internal recycling of EAF dusts from engineering grades steelmaking have been documented. Recent investigations are dealing with the internal recycling of EAF dusts from high-alloy steeImaking, aiming at the recovery of chromium and nickel as well as at an improved foaming of the slag.
