PyroGenesis and Constellium Sign Letter of Intent for Large-Scale Plasma Remelting Furnaces - Seite 2

“As part of our decarbonization roadmap, Constellium has been evaluating various solutions to support the decarbonization efforts within our aluminium cast houses,” said Mr. Ludovic Piquier, Senior VP Manufacturing Excellence and Chief Technical Officer of Constellium. “We are delighted with the robust research and development collaboration alongside PyroGenesis, which culminated in a successful plasma test campaign at their facility. Our technical experts, hand in hand with their PyroGenesis peers, were able to demonstrate the highly promising potential of plasma torch applications in our cast house furnaces. This fruitful collaboration has paved the way for our next phase of partnership as we transition to a significantly larger furnace and facility.”

The Company’s development of plasma torches for use in high temperature furnaces is part of the Company’s three-tiered solution ecosystem that aligns with economic drivers that are key to global heavy industry. Plasma torches for aluminum melting furnaces are part of the Company’s Energy Transition & Emissions Reduction tier, where fuel switching utilizing the Company’s electric-powered plasma torches helps heavy industry reduce fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions.
