After almost 5 exciting years, the SisAl Pilot project has ended. These years have been filled with lots of labs and pilot-scale experiments both in pyro and hydro, intense discussions about Life Cycle Assessment and future business cases, and last but not least incredible memories from project meetings around the globe. The consortium has constantly worked on implementing innovative pilots for Silicon production, with low environmental impact, using secondary Aluminium and silicon raw materials.We have demonstrated that the SisAl process is not just possible on a small scale but also on a large scale! It has been shown that different types of silicon and alumina qualities can be produced with the process.
