Description
ARC Training Centre for Resource Efficient Alloys in a Circular Economy. To reduce carbon emissions in the alloy sector, we need both low energy solutions and increased recycling. This Centre aims to create leaders in alloy innovation for a more circular economy. Leadership will be developed on-the-job via four strategic objectives: USE-LESS - develop alloys and structures that use less mass for the task; DEMAND-LESS - innovate in alloy and process design to create lower energy pathways; LAST-LONGER - create alloying solutions that facilitate component longevity, and RE-USE - design new alloys, processes and components that facilitate recycling and re-use. Outcomes will include new alloys, products and processes. Benefits will include reduced emissions and increased competitiveness of Australian enterprises.. Scheme: Industrial Transformation Training Centres. Field: 4016 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Matthew Barnett
