PLATIRUS consortium will take part in the E-WASTE World Conference & Expo on 18-19 November 2020. Dr. Nader Akil from PNO Innovation will present innovative low-cost and environmentally friendly technologies for recovering Platinum Group Metals from secondary resources in the European Union.
Platinum Group metals (PGMs) are classified by the European Commission since 2011 as Critical Raw Materials that are very essential for the European economy but are at high supply risk. PGMs are mainly used in autocatalysts to cut dangerous NOx and SOx emissions and are also used in a wide range of industrial applications for which there are often no substitutes. The PLATIRUS project funded by the European Commission under Horizon 2020, has developed innovative cost effective, environmentally friendly and compact technologies to recover PGMs from secondary resources in the EU.
PLATIRUS presentation will be hold at 19 November 2020 at 15h00. You can find the full agenda of the event here: here: https://www.ewaste-expo.com/agenda/
