Innovating alloy production: a single step from ores to sustainable metals

Scientists design a process that merges metal extraction, alloying and processing into one single, eco-friendly step

13-Dec-2024 - Metal production is responsible for 10% of global CO2 emissions, with iron production emitting two tons of CO2 for every ton of metal produced, and nickel production emitting 14 tons of CO2 per ton and even more, depending on the ore used. These metals form the foundation of alloys that have a ...
