K1-MET has it’s focus on the modelling and simulation of metallurgical processes, including metallurgical raw materials and refractoriness with the goal of an optimal process control with respect to product quality, zero waste and the minimization of energy and raw materials.

Research topics:
Environmental Process Development; Zero Waste Processing in Metallurgy; Development and Optimization of Refractories used in Metallurgical Processes; Modeling, Simulation and Automation of Metallurgical Processes; Valuation and Optimization of Metallurgical Raw Materials; Optimization and Development of Processes and Key Components of Metallurgical Plants
