RHI Magnesita's EU recycling project ReSoURCE is starting

2022-06-08

Jun. 8, 2022 - RHI Magnesita is leading an EU Horizon Project for the first time. The 4-year project is called ReSoURCE, starts in June 2022. The project comes with a total budget of €8.5 million for a consortium of eight internationally renowned partners from research and industry out of which the ReSoURCE consortium got a total funding of €6 million from the European Commission.

This approval is a big success and confirmation of RHI Magnesita's long-term efforts! The grant agreement is already signed and the project starts with a kick-off meeting and workshop with all members at our R&D Center Leoben from June 13-15, 2022.

ReSoURCE, short for “Refractory Sorting Using Revolutionising Classification Equipment”, will innovate the full process chain of refractory recycling with an AI-supported multi-sensor sorting equipment as its core technology. Combining laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and hyper spectral imaging (HSI) with optimized pre-processing and automated ejection, it will lay the foundation for a new state-of-the-art refractory sorting of particle sizes down to below 1 mm. The continuous monitoring of the economic and ecological benefits via techno-economic and life cycle assessment will ensure the green and digital transformation of the refractory recycling value chain.


RHI Magnesita's consortium partners are:
LSA - Laser Analytical Systems & Automation GmbH - Laser Analytical Systems & Automation GmbH (LIBS specialist) 
InnoLas Laser GmbH (Laser development)
Norsk Elektro Optikk AS (HSI specialist)
