Quite interesting observation about lithium additional recycling fee from Greece market. Do you know how it's going in other EU countries?
🚨 #ICYMI 🚨 Eivind Kallevik, who took over as President and CEO of Norsk Hydro in May, has emphasized that recycling will remain at the heart of Hydro’s 2030 strategy. 🌍♻️ #Hydro has ambitious plans to boost the recycling of postconsumer #aluminum scrap to between 850,000 and 1.2 million metric tons per year by 2030—a significant leap from the 443,000 metric tons recycled last year, which was a 38% increase from 2022. Kallevik highlights that recycling is the fastest way to zero-carbon aluminum and plays a crucial role in the #global green transition. 💡 Want to know more about Hydro’s path to a sustainable future?

Recycling News You Can Use ♻️🗞️ 🌍 Why Norsk Hydro's Low-Carbon Aluminum is a Win for the Planet 🌿 Norsk Hydro’s commitment to expanding its low-emission Hydro Reduxa and high-recycled-content Hydro Circal aluminum isn't just great for the company—it’s a powerful step toward a #greener future. Here's why this matters for our environment: 🔄 #Decarbonizing Through Recycling By prioritizing the use of 700,000 metric tons of post-consumer scrap in 2024 and aiming for up to 1.2 million metric tons annually by 2030, Hydro proves that recycling isn't just about waste reduction—it's a cornerstone of decarbonization. Using recycled materials dramatically cuts energy use and emissions compared to producing new aluminum from raw materials. ⚡ Investing in #GreenInnovation Hydro is funneling $1.35 billion into innovations that strengthen recycling capabilities and modernize extrusion operations. These investments not only lower costs but also reduce the environmental footprint of aluminum production, paving the way for a more #sustainable industry. 🌿 Meeting the Demand for Low-Carbon Solutions As the green transition accelerates, the demand for sustainable products is skyrocketing. Hydro’s low-emissions aluminum offers industries like #construction, #automotive, and packaging a tangible way to shrink their #carbonfootprints. As President and CEO Eivind Kallevik puts it: “We are steadily delivering on our ambition to pioneer the green aluminum transition.” 🌟 This is not just about the bottom line—it's about setting a precedent for sustainable practices in resource-intensive industries. Every step toward low-carbon aluminum is a step closer to a healthier #planet. 🌏 We Make ♻️ Easy!

Great to see companies like Norsk Hydro setting ambitious targets and making tangible progress towards increasing post-consumer aluminium scrap recycling. With plans to boost recycling capacity to up to 1.2 million metric tons per year by 2030, Hydro is prioritizing circularity to drive down carbon emissions and support the green transition. It's a smart move - recycling aluminium not only preserves natural resources but also significantly reduces the environmental footprint compared to primary production. With global demand for low-carbon and recycled aluminium set to soar, scaling up sustainable recycling processes is essential. ➕ This is the kind of long-term thinking and investment we need to see more of in the industry ➕ #Recycling #CircularEconomy #Aluminum #FactorSearch
Norsk Hydro is determined to drive forward the green #aluminium transition. #Recycling is an important concept in the company's 2030 strategy towards #decarbonisation and more #sustainability. ♻💚 Find out more about Hydro's investments in new recycling capacities in the following article 👇
👩🔧 🔩 ∙ The recycling rates for many critical metals are below 5%, with the current total recycled metals in batteries at around 1%. In contrast, platinum group metals (PGMs) have been widely used for decades, and their value has incentivized recycling. Today, the PGMs benefit from a well-established and significant recycling capacity. Specialized PGM recyclers constantly innovate to minimize losses and adapt to new forms of end-of-life material. Iridium spark plug tips are an example where recycling rates are low, despite the relatively straightforward processing of this end-of-life material. This situation arises because the value of iridium per individual plug (and per vehicle) is so small, while removal is labor-intensive. 👋 Margery (Marge) Ryan ∙ Anis Nassar
https://lnkd.in/d2Zrwv-a Europe’s Black Mass Evasion: From Black Box to Strategic Recycling Studies 02/12/2024 Diana-Paula GHERASIM Thibault MICHEL EV batteries recycling is a building block for boosting the European Union (EU)’s strategic autonomy in the field of critical raw minerals (CRM) value chains. Yet, recent evolutions in the European EV value chain, marked by cancellations or postponements of projects, are raising the alarm on the prospects of the battery recycling industry in Europe.
♻️ Can Europe Lead in Battery Recycling? ♻️ By 2030, Europe could recycle enough battery materials to supply up to 2 million EVs, reducing the need for 12 new mines globally and slashing carbon emissions. Yet, energy costs, limited expertise, and insufficient financial support threaten this potential. ⚡ 🔋 With the EU Battery Regulation pushing for higher recycled content in batteries by 2031, will Europe rise to the challenge or lose valuable materials to global competitors like China?

Fortum Recycling & Waste is investing 10 million euros to build a new state-of-the-art IBA (Incineration Bottom Ash) metal refinery for non-ferrous metals in Gävle, Sweden. The new plant, to be started up in the coming autumn, increases the recycling rate of metals, and thereby reduces the need for extraction of critical, virgin metal materials. ♻ “At the new metal refinery for non-ferrous metals, we will for example recycle stainless steel, aluminum, copper and brass recovered from bottom ash from the waste to energy plants around the Nordics. The recycled metals are sent to the smelters to be used for new metal production," explains Toni Ahtiainen, Head of Business Line Ash & Slag at Fortum Recycling & Waste The new plant is one small step towards Fortum Recycling & Waste’s mission to lead the way towards revolution of materials by transforming waste streams back to essential raw materials. There’re currently discussions on-going on EU level on how to secure the future need for critical metals and how to take the environmental aspect into account. Fortum Recycling & Waste’s new initiative supports the upcoming needs to secure recycled materials for the industry. Read more 👇 #rethinkingrecycling #metalrecycling #metalrefinery
