MEFOS's research activities consist of collaborative research for member companies and contract research for individual clients. MEFOS performs research on both pilot-plant and production scales. The work is carried out in close cooperation with the steel industry and the academic world, which gives a broad base for the development of existing and new processes.
MEFOS's research is divided into:
-
Development of existing and new metallurgical processes by using large pilot-plant and production equipment
-
Industrial application of computer modelling and simulation of metallurgical processes
-
Environmental engineering of metallurgical and other processes
-
Measurement technology of metallurgical processes
-
Energy efficiency and energy production in metallurgical processes
The research is performed by three departments
Metallurgy and environment
- Operating and maintenance of pilot equipment
-
Research, project coordination
