European Conference 2020
Play with your friend to the new digital RAWsiko, inspired by the classic game “Risiko!” The game is set in a not defined future where China decided to close its borders. From this moment, a desperate “raw materials rush” begins. You are the head of a company and you have to secure access to the Critical Raw Materials for your business!
Sign up to the Rawsiko game online here
(Deadline for registration 02/12/2020).
Info desk: rawsiko@isof.cnr.it

Webinars

♦ Mineral resources, sustainability and history in Congo - Geological Survey of Sweden SGU (SE)

When: 3 Dec 2020 at 14:30 (1 h) - Announcement

The Democratic Republic of Congo has been in active conflict during several hundred years, many times due to the country’s rich natural resources – i.e. minerals like cobalt, copper and uranium. This webinar is focused on complex societal issues about human rights, sustainability and mineral resources and sustainable development on the basis of Congo history. The webinar is given by two geologists who have lived and worked in Congo for several years and have in-depth knowledge of the current situation.

♦ Raw materials in solar cells: state of art and perspective - University of Milano Bicocca (IT)

When: 3 Dec 2020 at 15:00 (30 min) - Announcement

All major future energy scenarios forecast a key role for photovoltaic solar energy (PV). PV is renewable and has a huge global potential. The raw material of almost all solar cells today iscrystalline silicon that is one of the most widely available elements. A reliable and low-cost supply of raw materials ensures that solar will continue to become an increasingly attractive source of electricity. In this webinar after a short review of the state of art pf the PV, we will consider raw materials availability for the various solar-pv technologies and which role they play into the future of PV manufacturing and development.

♦ Repository of ideas: A few words about circular economy - University of Science and Technology (AGH), (PL)

When: 4 Dec 2020 at 16:30 (1 h) - Announcement

A Circular Economy is an economic concept in which products, materials and raw materials should remain in circulation for as long as possible, thereby seeking to minimise the amount of waste generated. The concept covers all stages of a product's life cycle - from design, through production, consumption, to waste. Its main objective is to move away from a linear economy (where waste is treated as the last stage of the life cycle) and shift towards the circular economy model where that the resulting waste is treated as secondary raw materials.
