SUMMARY:Blue Skies\, Greener Future: A Global Renaissance of Metallurgy
DESCRIPTION:Blue Skies\, Greener Future: A Global Renaissance of Metallurgy: The Birth of Metallurgy 2.0 \nSpeaker: Professor Zhongyun Fan \nMetals are the backbone of global manufacturing and the fuel for economic growth. However\, extraction and processing of metals are highly energy intensive and cause severe environmental damage: metal extraction accounts for 12% of global primary energy demand and 15% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The global grand challenge is to decouple economic growth from environmental damage. The worldwide sustainability crisis has led to a complete rethink of how we source\, formulate and deploy metallic materials in the future\, triggering a global renaissance of metallurgy and giving birth to Metallurgy 2.0. In this context\, we have developed a vision for full metal circulation (FMC)\, under which the global demand for metallic materials will be met by a full circulation of secondary metals without the need for either mining or metal extraction. \nSpeaker: Prof. Zhongyun Fan is a professor of metallurgy\, the founder and Director of BCAST at Brunel University London. He is the principal investigator/director of the EPSRC funded LiME Research Hub\, a national centre of excellence in liquid metal engineering. He is also the principal investigator for the UKRI Interdisciplinary Circular Economy Centre for Circular Metals. \nHe has published over 400 scientific papers with an H-Index of 59 and a total citation of 14071 (Google Scholar). He has led a wide range of research projects as principal investigator with grants totalling over £70M. \nHe has been chairman of 4 major international conferences and members international scientific committee of 6 international conferences. He was the co-chairmen of the Casting and Solidification Society (IOM3\, 2012-2018)\, is a Board Member of the Light Metals Division (IOM3)\, a Fellow of the Institute of IOM3 and the Institute of Cast Metal Engineers (ICME). He was the recipient of the Elegant Work Prize (1995)\, the Cook/Ablett Award (2003) and Dowding Medal and Prize (2012) of the Institute of Materials\, Minerals and Mining (IOM3).

SUMMARY:Materials Research Exchange (MRE) 2024
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate 10 years of Materials Research Exchange (MRE)\, we are ushering in a ground-breaking transformation for 2024 by introducing four exciting flagship events all in one spectacular experience! \nThis unique event is your gateway to the world of materials innovation\, featuring an exhibition\, investor showcase\, and cross-cutting seminars on technology transfer from the UK’s world-class research base. \nWhat’s on\nPrepare to be amazed as MRE 2024 delves into a diverse range of materials\, from nanotechnology to biomaterials\, textiles\, polymers\, metals\, glass\, and more. These materials are not just theoretical concepts but critical building blocks for real-world applications\, including energy\, construction\, packaging\, marine\, automotive\, and low carbon technologies. \nMRE is a catalyst for progress. Through cross-cutting presentations\, thought-provoking panel discussions\, and an investor showcase brimming with potential\, MRE fosters an environment of knowledge-sharing and cross-sector interactions. MRE is where the UK’s research and innovation excellence in materials meets the world of UK product manufacturers and forward-thinking investors. \nThis is your chance to connect with the materials community to collaborate\, exchange ideas\, and adopt the latest advances in materials science. \nFlagship events\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCircular Critical Materials Conference\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReimagining Materials and Manufacturing Showcase\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGRIPS Conference\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInvestor Showcase\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy attend?\nMRE brings an opportunity to network with over 1500 delegates from the materials community: researchers\, academics\, industry\, government\, investors and innovators from various fields to explore and discuss cutting-edge developments in materials science and technology. For our international attendees\, this is a unique opportunity to witness the UK’s world-leading capability in new materials development and meet with potential collaborators
