Resource Recovery through Enhanced Landfill Mining: A Review
On September 1, 2016, the ‘European Training Network for Resource Recovery Through Enhanced Landfill Mining’ (NEW-MINE) kicked off. The project generated more than 40 scientific publications in domains ranging from geophysics via mechanical process engineering to...
Are radiological properties a limiting factor when trying to valorise bauxite residue?
In collaboration with their colleagues from University of Tartu, researchers from ProcESS/SIM² KU Leuven performed an in-depth radiological assessment of bauxite residue (BR) subjected to a neutralisation-leaching process, BR slags arising from the smelting of BR, and...
Can historic Zn–Pb mine waste (Plombières, Belgium) be a source of valuable metals?
SIM² KU Leuven researchers, in collaboration with University of Liège and HZDR, have characterised the historic Zn-Pb mine waste from the tailings pond located at Plombières, East Belgium. The work, which was published in Minerals, was performed in the framework of...
