How much waste will the plant produce? Where will it be taken and disposed?
We will incorporate modern and state-of-the-art pollution prevention and control technologies and practices into the design and operation of the facility. Additionally, we will strive to minimize losses of all raw materials, especially metals. As a consequence of this business practice, ThyssenKrupp Steel and Stainless will look first for recycling or beneficial reuse opportunities for its slag, other iron-containing materials or used acid. Slag from the melt shop is a valuable by-product and could be used in agricultural liming, road base and pipe bedding, road surface concrete, ready mix concrete, fill material and filler in asphalt mixes. Materials for which recycling or beneficial reuse opportunities cannot be identified will be disposed of in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
