SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall to build a globally-unique pilot plant for fossil-free steel
SSAB’s, LKAB’s and Vattenfall’s pre-feasibility study is giving the green light for the fossil-free steel initiative, HYBRIT. For the first time in 1,000 years, there is an opportunity for a technology shift and, as early as this spring, a globally-unique pilot plant for fossil-free steel is being planned for Northern Sweden. The planning and designing is expected to cost SEK 20 million and it recently became clear that the Swedish Energy Agency will finance parts of the project.The initiative could reduce Sweden’s total carbon dioxide emissions by 10% and those in Finland by 7%.

Oncoinvent is pleased to announce today that Oncoinvent researchers have published data demonstrating the efficacy of the Radspherin® in two separate models of peritoneal carcinomatosis originating from ovarian cancer cell lines in the journal Translational Oncology.Summary of findings
In both models, intraperitoneal treatment with Radspherin® gave significant antitumor effect with either considerably reduced tumor volume or a survival benefit. An advantageous discovery was that only a few kilobecquerels were needed to yield therapeutic effects. The treatment was well tolerated up to a
