project Baltic Network Meeting in Sweden was in Örebo region, 09...12.09.2013. Tallinn University
of Technology was represented by TUT Department of Mining Teaching assistant
Veiko Karu.
Aim of the meeting was to visit Sweden pilot unit and discuss priject topics.
Sweden pilot unit is focusing on leaching. Aim of leaching is get metals out from mining waste.

MIN-NOVATION
is a European Union Baltic Sea project “Mining and Mineral Processing innovation
Network for Samm- and Medium-sized Enterprises in Waste Technologies”. Project
partners are from Poland, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Estonia.
MIN-NOVATION aims to create a
trans-national network with regional networks as building blocks of effective
multi-lateral cooperation. The activities carried out on the regional and
transnational level will secure better access to knowledge, state-of-the-art
technologies and good practice to SMEs (small and medium enterprices) active in
the mineral waste management & prevention sector. The project will address
all the waste management challenges and opportunities which face the Baltic Sea
Region mining industry, which should be understood as extending to all forms of
extraction of natural non-renewable resources.
MIN-NOVATION Baltic network
(MBN) has set up with the essential role of facilitating diffusion of knowledge
and good practices between regions. This will involve providing transnational
feedback to regional issues, and elevating cross-regional issues to status of
transnational priority areas.
MIN-NOVATION project is part
R&D activity in Department of Mining and is related to the study of “Sustainable and environmentally acceptable Oil shale mining”, AR12007; „Backfilling and waste
management in Estonian oil shale industry“, GRANT8123 - mi.ttu.ee/ETF8123; Doctoral
School of Energy and Geotechnology work group "Sustainable mining"
