Abstract: A method for processing accumulators, batteries and the like, which contain lithium, lithium ions, sodium, potassium and/or nickel as active components. According to the invention, the following steps are carried out; —introducing an accumulator, a battery, cell or the like, that contains lithium, lithium ions, sodium, potassium and/or nickel, into a chamber/reactor (13,23); —introducing water (H2O) (B, B2) in to the reactor (13,23); bringing the content of the reactor (13) to a temperature between 120° C. and 370° C. at a pressure between 2 and 250 bar.

Abstract: A man-made aggregate or a masonry unit may be made by adding impound residues and mixing the impound residues with other residues, ceramic materials and/or additives to form an admixture. The impound residues may also be mixed with synthetic or organic polymers. The impound residues may not conform to the requirements of ASTM C618-15. The admixture may be subjected to a thermal process that allows for a ceramic conversion of the ceramic components of the mix used.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for an anaerobic digestion of biomasses with generation of biogas and sludge, wherein a hydrolyzation phase and a following fermentation of the biomass are included, wherein a hydrolyzation phase (5) and at least two following fermentation phases (7,8,9) are included and wherein the hydrolyzation (5) as well as the following fermentations (7,8,9) are performed in separate containers with specific measurement and control of the temperature, of the mixing degree, of the pH value and of the pressure.
