Non-Ferrous Metals Resource Recovery Engineering
Non-Ferrous Metals Resource Recovery Engineering

To support the sustainable development of society, it is necessary to promote the recycling of valuable materials under strict environmental regulations to preserve mineral resources.

This unit develops environmentally friendly processes for recycling non-ferrous metals such as copper and rare metals. Furthermore, it aims to train young researchers and engineers in collaboration with industrial sectors in this field. In the second term, beginning in January 2017, this unit not only further develops the activities undertaken in the first term, but also intensifies activities to raise awareness of the importance of this field to the general public, especially among women and young children (below high school age).
