SinterAnlage – Draft

In the german Ruhr area is an old factory. The factory was specialized in creating Sinters. Sintering is a method for creating objects out of powder. The whole factory plant is covered with a dark brown dust of some sorts. The eventual product are pellets (little bals) that are being added to ores in hot ovens. Sinter installations have the result to optimalize the proces by which the ovens obtained in the course of the years a more productive and better exitance for the environment. A few of the installations have remained on the site, al be it not complete any more. It is enough however to make this an interesting site. Sinteranlage (German for Sinter Factory) was built in 1910 and abandonned in 1995. In those 14 years there has been a lot of decay but with carefull treading, lots of nice places are still accessible.
