Atmospheric CO2 sequestration in iron and steel slag: Consett, County Durham, UK (2018)
Journal Article
Mayes, W. M., Riley, A. L., Gomes, H. I., Brabham, P., Hamlyn, J., Pullin, H., & Renforth, P. (2018). Atmospheric CO2 sequestration in iron and steel slag: Consett, County Durham, UK. Environmental Science and Technology, 52(14), 7892-7900. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.8b01883

Carbonate formation in waste from the steel industry could constitute a non-trivial proportion of global requirements to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at potentially low cost. To constrain this potential, we examined atmospheric carbon di... Read More about Atmospheric CO2 sequestration in iron and steel slag: Consett, County Durham, UK.

Recovery of Al, Cr and V from steel slag by bioleaching: batch and column experiments (2018)
Journal Article
Gomes, H. I., Funari, V., Mayes, W. M., Rogerson, M., & Prior, T. J. (2018). Recovery of Al, Cr and V from steel slag by bioleaching: batch and column experiments. Journal of Environmental Management, 222, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvman.2018.05.056

Steel slag is a major by-product of the steel industry and a potential resource of technology critical elements. For this study, a basic oxygen furnace (BOF) steel slag was tested for bacterial leaching and recovery of aluminium (Al), chromium (Cr),...
