CARMAT

CARMAT is a project aimed at increasing the recyclability of steel mill slag by recovering the fine fractions for which there are no or few outlets and incorporating them in materials for the building and public works (BPW) sector.

This project also has two other aims, namely:

• to help cut CO2 emissions through less energy-intensive materials manufacturing processes than those of rival products (bricks, cement blocks, etc.) and based on carbonation using industrial CO2; and
• to guarantee the products’ toxicological and environmental harmlessness by immobilizing possible contaminants in materials made from stainless steel slag lastingly.
