• Description: This spotlight introduces a new treatment process from Regain Materials for handling spent potlining (SPL), which is a hazardous waste generated during the relining of smelter pots and is generally stored and landfilled in huge quantities. The method detoxifies SPL materials and processes all of the first-cut and second-cut SPL into fluoride and sodium in a mineral structure that enhances cement clinker chemistry.
