Recycling-oriented alloy design for next-generation of sustainable metallic materials

Project description

Recycled alloys for future green metallurgy

The EU has set in place the ambitious goal of becoming the first climate neutral continent by 2050. To achieve it, there has been a push towards a circular economy. Presenting a key challenge to achieving this is metal recycling, and in particular alloys produced from scrap metal, where impurities accumulate. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the ROAD-SiM project aims to contribute to the development of recycling-oriented alloys. To that end, it will analyse the impact of compositional changes and impurities on the mechanical properties changes and damage-tolerance of concentrated solid solution alloys, leading to the development of scrap-compatible alloys for sustainable metallurgy.
