As we enter the final day of the Faraday Institution Conference 2024, with the headline “The Battery Breakthrough”, another pertinent post from Weiss Technik highlighting our own innovations in the sphere of battery manufacturing… #WeissTechnik

During the third day of our SCREEN HEAVY DEMOTOUR across Austria, we made another pit stop at 📍 Störchle GmbH, a scrap metal processing facility. Following a swift setup, the demonstration resumed, showcasing the machine's capabilities in sieving shear scrap as well as incineration scrap, which is notoriously difficult to process. The SCREEN HEAVY impressed again with its high throughput and precise, clog-free screening results. Since incineration scrap and shear scrap consist of large grain sizes, normal sieves would struggle to process these materials without significant damage or wear and tear. With SCREEN HEAVY, this is no longer an issue! 💪 💬 “As a mid-sized company, versatility, ease of use, and mobility are crucial for us when considering solutions. We require machines that can adapt seamlessly to various materials and serve as an all-in-one solution. Finding such solutions is necessary for maximizing efficiency. BLUELINE is exactly what we are looking for!” - Maximilian Störchle, CEO of Störchle GmbH Interested in witnessing BLUELINE in action at your site? Look no further! We're up for any challenge.

The river Emscher is the symbol of one of the internationally most renowned industrial regions، the Ruhr area with its 5 million inhabitants and an important location of key industries such as steel, chemical, and materials industry. The revitalisation of the Emscher over the last 20 years marks a new phase in the region‘s history and is an impressive example of ecological and socio-economic transformation affecting all aspects of life along the river.

🎉 During the 40th edition of the National Conference of the Associazione Italiana di Metallurgia (AIM), held in Naples from September 11th to 13th, we had the pleasure of presenting our research work entitled: "Recent Advancements in Sustainable Approaches to Recover Precious Metals from Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)" 🔍 This study, authored by Pawan Singh Dhapola, Annalisa Acquesta, and Tullio Monetta, investigates the innovative use of #DeepEutecticSolvents (DES) for leaching and recovering precious and semi-precious metals from end-of-life electronic components (#WEEE). Our goal is to promote a #sustainable and #circular approach to WEEE management, transforming what is traditionally considered "#waste" into a #ValuableResource. 📊 The primary findings indicate that DES, compared to traditional organic solvents, can provide a more efficient and #environmentally friendly alternative for the recovery of #PreciousMetals such as gold and silver, which are found in significant quantities in WEEE. ♻️ This work represents a significant step forward in the implementation of #GreenTechnologies for the sustainable management of electronic waste and in reducing its environmental impact. Contributing to a sustainable transition is at the core of our mission and research activities. #SustainableDevelopment #CircularEconomy #WEEERecovery #EwasteManagement #ResearchInnovation #WasteToResource ##MetalRecovery #AcademicResearch #SustainableSolutions #WasteRecycling

Why MAELSTROM? We asked our partners for the most important reasons for our project. Frans Buschman, from our partner Deltares, responds: "By participating in MAELSTROM, we contribute to reducing the continuous transport of #plastics into the ocean. With our background in environmental hydrodynamics (flow of water) and knowledge of how plastic items are transported from their sources to the #sea, we strive to make the remediation technologies, such as the Bubble Barrier, more efficient. We also find it important to look at the entire cycle of plastics, which is exactly what MAELSTROM is doing."

How about that! Lower energy, faster speeds. How can RUF help your company achieve these results?

IFAT – Image Cultivation for Wastewater – 2-Step Plan – Presentation and Press Last week I visited IFAT Munich, for me as a Munich resident a "Messe dahoam". I was very pleased to be invited to present at the booth of the German Water Partnership. Right on the first day of the fair at 11:30 a.m. I had the opportunity to take care of the dirty image of wastewater and to draw a new more positive picture. The New Way of Dealing with Wastewater – From Problem Child to Beacon of Hope | 13th of May 11:30 – 12:00 Bentley Systems | GWP Joint Booth Hall B2 was already really full and I was very happy about the great interest in my presentation. Unfortunately, I had to realize that most of the visitors were primarily interested in the opening speech by Minister Steffi Lemke. A small but fine group of visitors listened to me presenting 5 usage options of wastewater: 1.                  Use rainwater for the "operation" of the sponge city 2.                  Recover valuable heat from wastewater 3.                  Material recycling, phosphate separation and sewage sludge use … 4.                  Synergies through cross-network coordination 5.                  Valuable data on diseases and drug use A nice success, but not the reach I had hoped for my mission to make better use of wastewater. Now the hope rests on 5 conversations with editors and journalists from water media. The interest in the topic was great and several articles and interviews are planned in the coming weeks and months. After publication, I will be happy to add the links to this post via a comment. I am always looking for innovative concepts on how to minimize our negative impact on the water cycle and enable nature to stabilize the natural water cycle.  #wastewater #watermanagement #bentleysystems #digitaltwin #climatechange #CO2neutral #spongecity Pascal Hugo, Nico Andritschke -Biologische Kläranlagen-, Boris Valdix, Hildegard Lyko, Isabell Hochstrat, Christine Vogl-Kordick, M.A., Cecília Correia, Thomas D.

Today, the Danish business paper, Børsen, delves into the recent SBTi-debacle surrounding carbon certificates versus actual scope 3 reductions. The coverage spans from the board's initial statement and subsequent "clarification" to the multitude of reactions from experts, the SBTi organization, and SBTi corporates. Slow falls in the last category, and I had the opportunity to voice my perspectives on the matter – and our stand is clear. Our priority is to maintain robust and impartial scientific foundations. We are concerned that embracing carbon credits may divert corporate attention and investments away from genuine value chain optimization, opting for quicker and easier solutions. I also emphasize that if scientific evidence validates carbon credits as a means to achieve our climate targets, we will support them also. However, any such endorsement must be grounded in science; otherwise, we risk failing future generations.
