This Waelz plant for the recycling of steel mill, especially EAF, dust is the first plant of that kind in the Middle East / North Africa (MENA) Region. The realized layout of the Waelz plant follows the BREF-Notes of the European Community and combines it with the US Best Demonstrated Available Technology. It was built as a green-field plant by Global Steel Dust with a local Saudi partner in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The paper starts with a report of the commissioning of the plant in May / June 2016. It also shows the challenges to find and to train suitable operation personnel under the specific conditions of KSA. Further on we present the results and experiences of the first year of operation: comparing the achieved vs. planed capacity, evaluating the quality of the products Waelz Zinc Oxide and Waelz Iron Product, explaining the way and results of controlling the diffuse dust and atmospheric emission, summarizing the differences in the raw materials.
