Many environmental problems caused by humans have to be solved by the application of modern, sophisticated concepts and future oriented technologies. During the production chain the raw material passes several process stages associated with energy consumption and the formation of gaseous, liquid and/or solid residuals at each stage. Every reduction in residue signifies a saving in the input of valuable and expensive raw material. The technologies for the treatment of end‐of‐pipe wastes are the so‐called “additive environmental technologies”.
