Turning hazardous waste into valuable resources
HaloSep introduces a cutting-edge technology to purify and refine hazardous waste from flue gas cleaning, known as fly ash and scrubber liquid, which arises from waste incineration at waste-to-energy plants. Through the process, this previously hazardous waste is converted into new, valuable resources, while at the same time significantly reducing the environmental impact.
First facility in operation
HaloSep has established the first facility in the world that efficiently separates metals and salts from fly ash. The facility has been built together with one of Copenhagen's largest combined heat and power facilities, Vestforbrænding, where around 13,000 tonnes of fly ash is processed every year to extract zinc, salts and purified ash ready for the commercial market. With reference to the HaloSep process, Vestforbrænding was awarded the “Verdensmålsprisen” by the Danish Waste Association in March 2022.
New development facility in Gothenburg
A new development facility in Gothenburg, Sweden, was established and will start operating in early 2023. The objective is to continue developing the HaloSep process to further increase circularity and the recycling of fractions into society.
