Critical Minerals Series, Theme 4: Circular Economy - Building Resilient Supply Chains with Reuse and Recycling
The global business community recognizes that repurposing, reusing, and recycling is essential to improve efficiency and profitability while arresting the degradation of the biosphere, and this is particularly true for the critical minerals supply chain.
This final panel discussion in our 2021 Critical Mineral Series will highlight the emerging science and technology of recycling vital components of the renewable energy infrastructure, including batteries and electronic materials. Panelists will discuss the concepts and evolving processes of retrieving precious metals from electronic waste, lithium from spent cells, and metals from old mining tailings. Focus will also be given to how current mining streams can be exploited for secondary resources and how waste might be used for carbon sequestration.
Session Panelists
Alex Grant, Jade Cove Partners
Loren Nicholls, University of Queensland
Anita Parbhakar-Fox, University of Queensland
Grace Snyder-Hansen, AETC
Series Moderator
