Environmental technology

In the area of energy generation using wind and hydroelectric plants, photovoltaic and solar thermal systems, the materials used must be capable of withstanding high temperatures, temperature fluctuations as well as extreme mechanical loads.

Also when it comes to water treatment, waste recycling or reprocessing, it is very important that the components used are resistant to corrosion, chemicals and wear.

Very high temperature resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance reduces the spectrum of materials that must be used for components wherever abrasive materials are processed. This applies, for example, to the conveyance, preparation and transport of raw materials and minerals.
