CEPS team has just published another article based on insights from INSPIRES project. The paper on ”Understanding the barriers to recycling critical raw materials for the energy transition: The case of rare earth permanent magnets”. The article is published in Energy Reports vol. 12, year 2024 pages 1673–1682. This is an open access article under...
Next September 2024 the IEEE Magnetic Frontiers 2024 “ Magnetic Materials and Motors for Green Energy Applications” Conference will take place in Darmstadt (Germany) The Conference will be focused on recent advances in the development and implementation of high-performance magnetic materials for energy applications. More specifically, topics of permanent magnets, soft magnets and magnetocaloric materials...
The past ICM-2024 that took place in Bologna, Italy, 30th June – 5th July 2024, had several contributions from INSPIRES. In the Session Critical challenges and Magnetic Materials (raw materials, sustainability, automotive)” Prof. Spomenka Kobe from JSI had an invited talk titled “Sustainable Processing of Innovative Rare-Earth Magnets”. She presented a general view of the...
The Beethoven Project (Substitution of Rare-Earths for advanced novel Magnets in Energy and Transport Applications) just started! Beethoven project is on a mission to develop innovative and sustainable advanced magnetic materials that substitute REE in the energy and transportation sectors. This project will work on developing and upscaling 3 types of magnetic phases: high-entropy alloys,...
Just at the beginning of June, a consortium of 15 European partners led by the Slovenian Jožef Stefan Institute (JSI) kicked off GREENE, short for SINGLE-GRAIN RE-ENGINEERED Nd-Fe-B PERMANENT MAGNETS, an EU project with a funding of €8 million. Over a four-year period, partners will develop high-energy Nd-Fe-B based magnets, innovatively re-engineering them at the...
We give the welcome to the MagNeO project and their partners to the Community projects working in the challenge to develop a more green society through the development of sustainable permanent magnets. The MagneO project has the main goal to replace rare earth elements (REE) in the production of permanent magnets (PM) with REE-free AlNiCo...
INSPIRES project is arriving to the end. All partners met in Portorož (Slovenia) the 6th and 7th of June to present the most relevant results in terms of developments and research. The meeting was successfully organized by JSI partner. Key results on dismantling and recovering magnets, recycling processes and final products and their sustainable performance...
“Processability and Separability of Commercial Anti-Corrosion Coatings Produced by In Situ Hydrogen-Processing of Magnetic Scrap (HPMS) Recycling of NdFeB” is the title of the article ì by Laura Grau Peter Fleissner, Spomenka Kobe and Carlo Burkhardt from JSI and Pforzheim University. This is published in Materials 17 (2024) 2487. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma17112487. In this work the recyclability...
The next INSPIRES project Meeting will take place June 6th and 7th in Koper (Slovenia) organized by JSI. During these 2 days the most recent results of the project will be presented and discussed. The final activities of the project will be planned.
The MetroCycleEU metrology consortium is organising a final workshop of the project dedicated to improving the quantification of Technology Critical Elements in electronic wastes and batteries. The workshop will take place online on the 23rd of May 2023 from 14:00 to 17:00 (CEST). Information and registration on MetroCycleEU LinkedIn page or on metrocycle.eu.
