SaltX, SMA Mineral and SSAB are entering a pre-study on using new technology for climate-neutral quicklime production
SaltX Technology, SMA Mineral, and SSAB are entering a pre-study on how a new technology to produce climate-neutral quicklime can be applied in SSAB's steelmaking process. The technology, which SaltX is developing, aims to replace fossil fuels with renewable electricity in quick-lime production. In the production of ore-based steel, quicklime is needed as a slag former.The parties have signed a Letter of Intent, which intends to transition into a long-term cooperation agreement if the outcome of the preliminary study is positive. The study will be completed during the current year. SaltX
