A truly circular process for recycling all main raw materials of waste of LCDs screens of smartphones
Martelo L., Silva M., Bacelo H., Bastos M., (Corresponding) Soares H.
Topic:
CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND BIOECONOMY
A liquid-crystal display (LCD) screen is composed by two transparent glasses coated with indium-tin oxide (ITO) on it and crystal liquids (LCs) sandwiched between them. The current implemented recycling process usually adopts mechanical crushing or pyrolysis as the primary LCDs screens treatment...Read more

The innovative method of testing solid fuels as an answer to safe and sustainable supply of raw materials –the example of coking coal parameters
(Corresponding) Dreger M., (Corresponding) Piotr C., Szymura ., Więcek K., Kocela-Jagiełko A.
Topic:
Sustainable supply of raw materials
The metallurgical coal (coking coal) has been defined as the critical raw material (CRM) in the European Union. Using that type of coal in the coking plants allows it to produce high quality steel and steel products in steel mill around the world. Coking the metallurgical coal is a really complex...Read more
