Used construction steel re-manufacturing and certification

Circular Structural Steel program:

The establishment of a production facility for the re-manufacturing of used construction steel to as-new certified construction steel , replacing high costly newly produced steel.

To this end, the development of a highly robotized production line, as well as a standard-setting certification according to the future DPP guidelines will be made possible.

Our activities 

  • Feasibility Study for implementing of a robotic system for the processing ( sorting,inspection, testing, cleaning, cutting) of emerging structural steel from dismantled or demolished buildings into as-new certified reusable construction steel 
  • The development of associated test equipment, software and hardware, as well as a tracking and certification program for the Digital Product Passport (DPP).
  • Market research and orientation with regard to both the trade (purchase/sale) and availability of used steel , versus new steel
  • Research of current and future legislation regarding the use of as-new re-manufactured steel (NTA 8713, NEN 1090,CE marking and DoP declaration)
  • Investigating of parties in the steel chain with reargd to decision making, commisioning and appreciation for the actual inclusion of reusable steel as a fully-fledged part of the construction chain ( architects, developers, govenrments, construction companies)
  • consultation with various initiators and bodies at government and businesses ( "Bouwen met Staal", NEN Road Map 2019-2050, "Ketendoorbraakproject"and others)
  • Research into financing opportunities, and willingness of investors and equty providers, subsidy options ("Kansen voor West", PZH)
  •  Setting up a consortium for the realization of the production facility

PROJECTEN

REVALUATION OF WASTE STREAMS BY CHEMICAL RECYCLING 

In addition to existing initiatives for the regeneration of waste streams through mechanical recycling ( f.i. production of plastic granulates) and generating energy from waste streams, chemical recycling of these waste streams are a more circular solution because it reduces the waste materials to its origin, usually oil.

USED CONSTRUCTION STEEL REMANUFACTURING AND CERTIFICATION 

Used steel is being recycled for many years now, becoming raw material for steel ovens for the production of new steel. Such process demands for a huge energy consumption (melting process) and goes with a high CO2 emission rate.

The building industry in the Netherlands and other countries will increasingly have to be made more sustainable and circular. Not to the least for reasons of forthcoming EU legislation. By re-manufacturing of used construction steel from dismantled or demolished buildings, upgrading it to a quality equal to brand new construction steel, a huge saving in use of iron ore and coal will be achieved, as well as Terra Watt hours of energy savings, therewith also a substantial reduction of CO2 emissions.
