Video Deutsche Welle shows asbestos in problems & solutions
DEFINITIVE SOLUTIONJournalists from Deutsche Welle visited Asbeter December 2024 to know more about the AC Minerals process, a definitive solution for asbestos cement. They produced this DEUTSCHE WELLE VIDEO with an excellent overview of the asbestos problems in the world and the hopeful AC Minerals initiative from the Netherlands for the construction of the first processing plant that also recovers high-quality cement.
Valuable raw material transition with dissolving worldwide asbestos problem
It seemed like a worldwide problem that was impossible to solve. But the Asbeter team has now secured a second patent for the safe processing of cement contaminated with asbestos fibres. The developed deep-tech-cleantech AC Minerals process represents a worldwide breakthrough for tackling the asbestos problem. It is an alkaline process that only needs water and energy to denature the asbestos fibers from, for example, roof plates and pipes. This means that 100% of the material no longer needs to be landfilled, but can serve as a raw material again as reactive calcium silicates for the cement and concrete industry, the paint industry and the industry for chemical catalysis carriers. No emissions to air or water, no nitrogen and 57,000 tonnes of CO2-neutral raw CSM materials for clinker replacement available every year!
