The Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) is an essential regulatory framework designed to address the pressing challenges faced by the European Union (EU) in the strategic sectors of decarbonization, digitalization, and aerospace and defense. It aims to tackle the lack of secure and sustainable access...
Critical Raw Materials attract increasing attention due to their depleting reserves and low recyclability. Niobium, one of the most rare and vital elements, is primarily found in Brazil. This research explores the potential impact of Circular Economy (CE) strategies on mitigating niobium's criticality...
It is also imperative for them to have a flawless supply chain which contains a key component of sourcing critical raw materials (CRMs) [1] for them to remain sustainable. In the EU, the excess of imports of CRMs, especially in the mechanical manufacturing industry—here, we refer to ...
Critical Raw Materials Resilience: Charting a Path towards Greater Security and Sustainability. Available online: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:52020DC0474 (accessed on 7 July 2024). European Commission, Study on the Critical Raw Materials for the EU 2023—...
In this work, mycorrhizal-assisted phytoextraction (MAP,Helianthus annuus–arbuscular mycorrhizal fungusRhizophagus intraradices–Zn-volcanic ashes) was applied for the recovery of secondary and critical raw materials (SRMs and CRMs, respectively) from Joda West (Odisha, India) mine residues, within a ...
For example, a cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment (i.e., from raw materials’ extraction to printing) revealed that if olive wood scrap is added to PLA in order to print an ornamental object of a given volume, the total environmental impact decreases (by up to 10.2% with 20% of ...
The process of secondary succession is one of the most significant threats to non-forest (natural and semi-natural open) Natura 2000 habitats in Poland; shrub and tree encroachment taking place on abandoned, low productive agricultural areas, historicall
According to ELCD core database V3.0, two main types of lorries (medium sized lorry transport, low impact, maximum capacity of 17.3 tonnes; articulated lorry transport: high impact, maximum capacity of 27 tonnes) are used to transport raw materials to concrete plant (Table 4). Appl. Sci. ...
The Euratom Directive permits water suppliers to set limit values for radon in the range of 100–1000 Bq/L despite the proposed limit of 100 Bq/L. This guideline could create potential safety gaps among EU populations or disparities, even in the same country, between areas of different aquif...
