Join us as we delve into the innovative work spearheaded by Swansea University, a key contributor to the UN-backed International Centre of Excellence on Sustainable Resource Management. This session will focus on how enhancing the quality of scrap metal is crucial for cutting carbon emissions and supporting the circular economy. Learn about the latest advancements in scrap metal sorting and tracking technologies that are driving greener steel production across the UK, from Port Talbot to Scunthorpe.
We will also touch upon the evolving regulatory landscape, particularly the role of the Environment Agency in setting and enforcing standards to enable a circular economy. Understanding these regulations is vital for ensuring that scrap metal not only meets industry needs but also contributes to environmental sustainability. Discover how compliance with these regulations, combined with technological innovation, is key to securing a more sustainable future for the UK’s metal industry.
