Strategic Metals axis
general assembly
The general assembly of the PEPR Strategic Metals axis was held on March 18 at the Toulouse Chemical Engineering Laboratory on the INP-ENSIACET campus.
This day was an opportunity to take stock of PEPR news, and in particular the new projects from the AMI that will join the program at the start of the school year. The members of the axis were then able to present the work of the various tasks that comprise it:
- Task 1 “Techno-economic and environmental assessment of the recycling of strategic metals”
- Task 2 “Development of an automated online sorting method using X-ray fluorescence”
- Task 3 “Unit operations for dissolution and recovery of strategic metals”
- Task 4 “Process modeling”
- Task 5 “Process optimization tools”
Thank you to everyone who helped organize this great meeting and gave us a very interesting tour of the LGC experimental rooms.
The Strategic Metals axis, led by Yannick Menard (BRGM) and Stephane Pellet Rostaing (ICSM), aims to provide the necessary framework for the socio-economic and environmental assessment of the recycling of strategic metals, while developing operations to optimize the recovery and recovery of metals contained in end-of-life objects and to produce salts or marketable metals (purified, in alloy form).
