Together with the design studio Form Us With Love we want to explore the application possibilities of the sand produced as a co-product from the Ash2Phos process, with the aim to create an interest from possible targets in the manufacturing and down sourcing market.
From EasyMining’s Ash2Phos process of turning sewage sludge ash into phosphorus products, a red silica sand is created as a co-product.
