REFRACTORIES - Key Technology and Its Applications

The seminar „REFRACTORIES - Key Technology and its Applications“ consists of two consecutive parts, each running 1.5 days. In the first part, the basics of raw materials, production, characteristics and installation of refractory materials and products are taught. The different classes of refractory materials and their typical representatives are presented. In the second part, experts from the process industry report on the specific applications of refractory products in the most important industrial sectors, on the materials used and on the special challenges with the transition to climate neutrality in industrial production.
