Chemical Mill produces novel green fertilizer
X-ray experiments at DESY’s synchrotron light source PETRA III allowed scientists from the Ruđer Bošković Institute (IRB) , the Lehigh University in Bethlehem, the fertilizer company ICL, the University Zagreb and DESY to optimize a purely mechanical process for the production of Nitrogen and Calcium fertilizer.
Cleaner steel with synchrotron X-ray microtomography
Steel producer SSAB, the metal research institute SWERIM and the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE) used synchrotron X-ray microtomography to explore ways to detect foreign particles in predefined steel. The results show that it is possible to detect tiny inclusions down to a size of <2.4 μm.
Using neutrons to tackle hydrogen embrittlement
The steel producer SSAB with the help of Swerim AB and Malmö University learns more about how to prevent hydrogen embrittlement from limiting the potential of the company’s high-strength steel products. They turned to neutron diffraction to study the material in unique ways. A challenge to high-strength steel Hydrogen embrittlement is a complex process where materials such as steel are embrittled after being exposed to hydrogen. […]
