UK: SteelPhalt, a subsidiary of US-based Harsco Environmental, has been awarded a research grant through the Industrial Energy Transformation Fund (IETF). The grant is part of a government effort to distribute funding to help energy-intensive industries cut their carbon emissions and energy costs. The grant funds will enable the company to conduct a feasibility study on energy-efficient solutions for asphalt production. The research will seek to identify ways to capture the waste heat in the exhaust gases and transform it into electrical power, with the objective of reducing the energy demand and carbon impact of the process. The company uses steel slag as a main component of its asphalt products.
