Valorization of iron oxide wastes as high value-added pigments

The project aims to obtain pigments from iron oxide wastes and thus contribute to reduce the use of iron oxides in the production of pigments:

  • The extraction of natural iron oxides.
  • Minimize the energy consumed in obtaining pigments from metallic iron by other companies (Laux process).
  • Reduce pollution during waste management.
  • Indirect energy savings derived from these operations.
