SUMMARY:2nd Industrial Symbiosis Workshop
DESCRIPTION:International Synergies and TransFIRe are pleased to extend to you an invitation to our second cross sector\, resource matching workshop which will be delivered as part of the TransFIRe project. \nRegister for the event here\nWorkshop Summary \nThe aim of this session is to bring together the six foundation industries\, with representation from their respective supply chains and other sectors which could supply solutions\, to identify opportunities for industrial symbiosis. The focal point of our workshop will be the use of a simple\, internationally proven resource matching methodology that seeks to identify new business opportunities for participants’ waste resources. The session is interactive and will require a modest of amount of preparation from all delegates ahead of the event. The output will be a significant number of industrial symbiosis synergies\, some quick wins and others longer term innovation opportunities. All will have the potential to reduce cost\, cut carbon emissions and reduce waste disposal volumes. \nYou will be contacted in the week prior to the workshop regarding what information to bring with you on your own resource HAVES and WANTS. This is a key component of the matching process which is undertaken on the day and involves minimal preparation. \n• HAVES are resources that your company produce and wish to find a higher value market opportunity for\, these could be resources such process wastes\, by products\, energy and heat\, water\, logistics or processing capacity. \n• WANTS are resources that your company could potentially use as process inputs and represent an opportunity for a more cost effective and sustainable source of raw material\, water\, energy or logistics. \n  \nThe primary aim of the workshop session will be to identify opportunities to match these HAVES and WANTS together\, to create win-win synergies between organisations in the room and potentially further afield. It will also provide an \nThe event will also provide an opportunity to understand regional and national project funding opportunities from the KTN\, as well as updates from the Humber Energy Cluster\, University of Leeds and the wider circular economy initiatives happening in the HEY LEP region. \n  \nWorkshop Agenda\, 19th April 2023\, 09.00 to 12.30 \nThe agenda for the resource matching workshop is: \n09.00 Registration & Networking \n09.30 HEY LEP LEP welcome and regional CE initiatives update \n09.50 Welcome and Introduction to TransFIRe \n10.05 University of Leeds Foundation Industry Presentation \n10.35 Introduction to the Workshop Session \n10.50 Interactive Resource Matching Workshop \n12.20 Workshop Summary \n12.30 Close & Lunch \n  \nWorkshop Follow Up \nOur aim is that within a week of the event’s conclusion\, you will receive your own bespoke company report identifying those potential resource matches that were created on the day\, as well any additional opportunities\, beyond the workshop\, that have been identified from our supporting data analysis. \nOur intention is to also hold a short follow up virtual workshop\, for which you will receive a separate invite. Here we will present more detailed outcomes of the resource matching session and engage in a discussion on how together we can successfully advance the identified synergies. \nFinally\, we look forward to your participation in what should be an enjoyable and productive session. \n

SUMMARY:Net-Zero\, Industrial Decarbonisation\, and the ‘Non-Technical’ Dimensions of Transformative Change
DESCRIPTION:SKAPE is delighted to host Kyle Parker and Steve Yearley (University of Edinburgh). \nKyle and Steve will be presenting on “Net-Zero\, Industrial Decarbonisation\, and the ‘Non-Technical’ Dimensions of Transformative Change”. \nAbstract: \nThis talk reports on research being conducted within STIS as part of the UK’s TransFIRe Hub – a large investment by UKRI/EPSRC involving over 20 investigators from 12 UK institutions\, in addition to Project Partners from more than 70 organisations (including companies\, NGOs and government organisations.  \nTransFIRe is about the meeting point of two huge challenges and transformations confronting UK industry: namely\, the impacts of Brexit on international competitiveness\, and the drive towards decarbonisation and the UK’s 2050 ‘Net-Zero’ target.  This is of particular importance to the so-called Foundation Industries (FI) – the energy-intensive industries that produce the material from which other products are made (for example\, metals\, glass and ceramics). Ordinary people are seldom customers for foundation-industry products\, but they (we) buy the things made from FI outputs.  \nIn this talk we will draw on policy analyses and one main Scottish\, industry case study to investigate how the future of the Foundation Industries is being shaped and imagined or ignored in the UK. Most of the research that is currently being conducted on FIs is focused on technical adaptations and improvements. Our emphasis is on other factors\, including the planning system\, political objectives\, and community-industry relations. Though this research is focused on the UK\, the talk has implications for comparable OECD member states.  \nSpeakers: \nKyle Parker: After working as an academic research chemist for 10 years\, in 2018 I came to the University of Edinburgh to study policy support for accelerating technology development in Scotland’s marine renewable energy sector.  From 2020-2022 I worked as a Research Fellow on the ‘Energy Policy Effectiveness’ project for the ClimateXChange research agency\, where I produced systematic evidence reviews on energy and climate change policy issues on behalf of the Scottish Government.  This work focused primarily on green industrial strategy\, and accelerating the deployment of low carbon heating and energy efficiency technologies in Scotland.   \nI currently work as a Research Fellow on the TransFIRe (Transforming the Foundation Industries Research Hub) project\, studying the socioeconomic dimensions of transformative change and industrial decarbonisation.   \nSteve Yearley holds the Chair in the Sociology of Scientific Knowledge (SSK) in STIS\, the subject area of “Science\, Technology and Innovation Studies”.  \nSteve is well known for his work in social studies of science and in environmental sociology. Key to his work is thinking about environmental issues from an STS or SSK point of view – for example\, looking at the ways in which environmental activists have adapted to dealing with scientific evidence.  \nIn his empirical work Steve is particularly concerned with areas where STS and environmental sociology overlap: for example in environmental controversies with a pronounced scientific element (such as with climate change and with continuing disputes over the safety or otherwise of GMOs and the associated concerns around synthetic biology) or\, for example\, in attempts to foster public engagement in technical decision-making in environmental areas (for instance\, through his work on citizen engagement in urban air-quality issues). Currently\, Steve is working on industrial decarbonisation in the UK\, and also doing some writing that links back to his work at the Genomics Forum.  \n______________ \nThis event will take place in person at the University of Edinburgh\, Chrystal Macmillan Building\, Room 2.15.

SUMMARY:18th Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:The Technical University of Berlin (IWF) and Fraunhofer IPK cordially invite you to the 18th Global Conference on Sustainable Manufacturing (GCSM) in Berlin\, Germany. \nThe GCSM serves as a global forum for academics\, researchers\, and specialists from universities\, research institutes and industry across the globe\, working on topics related to sustainable manufacturing. A unique feature of the GCSM conference series is its integration of industrial engineering perspectives\, sustainable manufacturing applications in emerging and developing countries\, as well as education and workforce development for advancing sustainable manufacturing. \nSustainable Manufacturing is the buzzword for our global conference\, taking place annually since 2003 and returning to Berlin for the third time in 18 years. The conference aims to exploit manufacturing engineering potentials for bridging the gap between awareness on sustainability challenges and means to systematically and concretely cope with them. \nTo overcome the challenges of global sustainability becomes an ever more urgent task\, as the awareness about imbalanced wealth distribution\, climate change and lack of holistic responsibility in investments are considerably rising. Interdisciplinary discourse and reasonable action in learning and teaching on topics such as circular technology and economy\, distribution of labor for comprehensive human development\, careful use of natural resources and prudence are responsibilities of global citizens.

SUMMARY:UK Metals Expo
DESCRIPTION:By 2030\, a modern and progressive UK Metals Industry will be supplying high quality\, innovative and competitively priced products to a wide range of customers. It will be the principal supplier to the UK’s main manufacturers and infrastructure projects\, and a leading global exporter. \nThe UK metals industry is seen by many as a sleeping giant – self-sufficient and slow to change. The reality is that it is a uniquely placed powerhouse of UK industry with many of its own challenges and opportunities. Coming years will see the need to rise to some significant challenges such as skills shortages\, recycling effectively and trading post Brexit. \nThe UK Metals Expo will be the first time that the entire industry is both represented and brought together fully under one roof. \nUK Metals Expo benefits from full endorsement and collaboration from the UK Metals Council\, it’s member trade associations and numerous other industry bodies. With a new Governing Body chaired by Lord Rupert Redesdale the influence of the event will be year-round with major initiatives\, challenges and successes discussed and presented in detail in the show floor theatres. \nThe entire metals supply chain will be represented from primary metal manufacture\, supply chain management\, processing metals\, fabrication\, surface coatings and recycling with industry experts\, leading vendors and trade attendees. \nTheatre themes include Supply Chains\, Innovation\, Skills\, Circular Economy and Resources. These will set the tone for the event which will be heavily driven by sharing an agenda driven each year by the Governing Body. \nAnyone with a career in the metals industry will want to attend\, any organisations providing goods or services to this industry will want to be represented.

SUMMARY:Industrial Symbiosis Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Summary \nThe aim of this session is to bring together the six foundation industries\, with representation from their respective supply chains\, to identify opportunities for industrial symbiosis. The focal point of our workshop will be the use of a simple\, internationally proven resource matching methodology that seeks to identify new business opportunities for participants’ waste resources. The session would be interactive and will require a modest amount of preparation from all delegates ahead of the event. The output will be a significant number of industrial symbiosis synergies\, some quick wins and others longer term innovation opportunities. All will have the potential to reduce cost\, cut carbon emissions and reduce waste disposal. \nYou will be contacted prior to the workshop to provide information on your own resource HAVES and WANTS. This is a key component of the matching process which is undertaken on the day. \n• HAVES are resources that your company produce and wish to find a higher value market opportunity for\, these could be resources such process wastes\, by products\, energy and heat\, water\, logistics or processing capacity. \n• WANTS are resources that your company could potentially use as process inputs and represent an opportunity for a more cost effective and sustainable source of raw material\, water\, energy or logistics. \nFor ease\, this information can be provided using data already being collected as part of the TransFIRe project but will need your express permission for its use as part of the matching activity. If this is not desirable\, then one of the TransFIRe team will contact you to arrange to talk through your own resource data input. \nWorkshop Agenda \nThe agenda for the resource matching workshop is: \n13.30 Welcome and Introductions \n13.45 Introduction to TransFIRe and the Resource Matching Workshop \n13.55 Interactive Resource Matching Session \n15.20 Workshop Summary and Close \nWorkshop Follow Up \nWithin a week of the event’s conclusion\, you will receive your own bespoke company report identifying those potential resource matches that were created on the day\, as well any additional opportunities that have been identified from our supporting data analysis. \nOur intention is to hold a follow up workshop on the 19th of July\, for which you will receive a separate invite. Here we will present the outcomes of the resource matching session and engage in a discussion on how together we can successfully advance the identified synergies. \n
