Organised by IOM Communications Ltd on behalf of the Iron and Steel Society

It is recognised that waste reduction, recovery and utilisation is becoming more important to ensure that the world’s resources are used in a increasingly sustainable manner.

Whilst the global iron and steel industry has done much to both reduce waste production, increase the levels of waste utilised and thus significantly reduced the quantities of waste that is disposed, there is undoubtedly room for further improvement.

The overall objective of the conference is to stimulate interest and dialogue in the various ways and means that these wastes can be processed and their levels of utilisation increased.

This aim will be achieved by paper and poster contributions from steel companies, contractors and other ‘external industry/companies’ detailing case studies, examples of technological development, process implementation and the identification of areas requiring further investigation and/or research and development  in order to further enhance utilisation rates.  

Wastes to be covered in the scope of the conference include:

Slags
Scrap (internal & external)
Metalliferrous wastes including gas cleaning dusts/sludges, millscales contaminated with oils etc.

This event is approved for Professional Development by the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.
