Researchers at the University of Toronto have created a new kind of electrochemical cell that can help recycle scrap into high-grade steel.
Using slag — a material made up of impurities discarded during the steel manufacturing process — they've created a type of electrolyte for a device similar to a battery.
The new electrolyte removes the copper and generates pure iron, the base material for steel.
Manufacturing steel is a seriously polluting activity.
