We are excited to announce the Conference on Circular Economy of Battery: Production and Recycling (CEB2018), which will be held on 24-26 September 2018 in Gothenburg, Sweden. The rapid progresses in battery technologies directly affect our daily lives not only with various applications, but also for energy...

Modern societies are dependent on mineral-based products. Energy technology, Information and communications technology, consumer electronics, infrastructure, logistics and food production all increasingly rely on an ever-widening array of minerals and metals. For example, production of a personal computer or a smartphone needs over 40 elements....

The annual PROMETIA Scientific Seminar was held on 28-29 November 2017 in Barcelona, Spain, and focused on “Raw Materials Flexibility”. The event addressed the following issues: processes that can be used with different types of feeds (primary, secondary, evolution of the composition…) to produce a given...

Raw materials are crucial to Europe’s economy and essential to maintaining and improving our quality of life. Securing reliable and unhindered access to important primary and secondary raw materials is a growing concern within the EU and across the globe. The SusCritMat project, funded by the EIT...

Following the success of the 1st edition of the “Raw Materials Week”, the 2nd edition will take place in Brussels from Monday 6 to Friday 10 November 2017. It will be a great opportunity for the raw materials community to discuss and exchange on all relevant issues: policy,...

The annual PROMETIA Scientific Seminar will be held on 28-29 November 2017 in Barcelona, Spain. The topic of the 2017 PROMETIA Annual Event is “Raw Materials Flexibility” and will address the following issues (but not limited to): processes that can be used with different types of feeds...

The International Mineral Processing Congress has been in existence now for more than sixty years. The very first congress was held in September 1952 in London, and with 39 technical papers and 332 delegates, it was indeed an impressive beginning of a series of ever...

The Competence Center of Recycling at Chalmers University of Technology in cooperation with Nordic Publishing, and with major organisations from the basic, chemical and recycling industries, are proud to invite you to the fourth ”Circular Materials Conference” on 7-8 March 2018 at Chalmers Conference Centre...

In addition to the well-known applications of tantalum, a new one is emerging: orthopaedic applications. As part of the European MSP-REFRAM project, a survey prepared by Ana Diez de la Rosa from ADE (Agency of Innovation, Business Financing and Internationalization of Castilla y León in Spain),...

The results from the MSP-REFRAM project (Multi-Stakeholder Platform for a Secure Supply of Refractory Metals in Europe) are now available.  Refractory metals (tungsten, tantalum, rhenium, molybdenum and niobium) are highly strategic metals today, and are mainly imported from a limited number of countries. The European primary production remains...
