ICL acquired breakthrough phosphate recycling technology from SGL Carbon GmbH

ICL recently announced it has acquired a technology aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of its global operations.   
 
The acquisition from SGL Carbon GmbH will enable ICL to manufacture several forms of phosphorus derivatives out of waste ashes.
 
After a successful pilot phase, ICL plans to proceed over time with four full scale units in Europe and in the US. The first full scale unit could be operational by 2018. The output from these units will be used as raw materials for ICL's specialty businesses in the Food and Engineered Materials markets.
 
"We will turn sewage sludge into valuable raw materials," said Kees Langeveld, Vice President Business Development at ICL. "At ICL, we have a history of sustainable innovations and now we will find new ways to recycle waste."
 
"The RecoPhos technology will enable ICL to replace the sourcing of thousands of tons of high energy consuming phosphorus into Europe and the US and thus take us one step closer to a Circular Economy," added Kees Langeveld.
