Carbon-bonded filter materials and filter structures with active and reactive functional pores (A01)

Subject Area Glass, Ceramics and Derived Composites
Term from 2011 to 2023
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 169148856
 

Project Description

In the third period, carbon-bonded filter materials with an environmentally friendly binder system based on lactose and tannin will be investigated, which will be further strengthened by the targeted addition of nanoscale additives. Furthermore, functional calcium aluminate coatings in combination with carbon are studied with regard to their impact on the active/reactive filtration and flotation in steel melts, respectively. Another major focus is the investigation of water-soluble filter skeleton-templates, which are produced by generative techniques and coated by flame spraying technology. Subsequently, the filter skeleton-templates are removed in water, avoiding sharp-edged pores inside the filter.
