Materials in Manufacturing the Future: SUSTAIN Manufacturing Hub Seminar
Added on Thu Jul 07 14:00:00 BST 2022
Duration: 1:08:37
This is the fifth lecture in the Materials in Manufacturing the Future Seminar Series, designed to introduce research in the Manufacturing the Future EPSRC funded projects to the wider materials community.
Prof. Cameron Pleydell-Pearce gives an overview of the SUSTAIN Future Manufacturing Research Hub, which is an ambitious collaborative project led by Swansea University, with spokes at the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick and partners the five main steel producers in the UK (British Steel, Celsa UK, Liberty Speciality Steel, Sheffield Forgemasters and Tata Steel UK). The increasing diversity and lower carbon intensity of UK made steel products together with greater productivity and efficiency will thus benefit the whole of UK manufacturing and create opportunities for manufacturing to make inroads into traditional areas for example by driving offsite manufactured construction alternatives to traditional low skill labour intensive routes. Over its 7 year duration, SUSTAIN will provide a low TRL platform for the development of new, smarter, more environmentally and ecologically sustainable industrial processes to ensure the future of manufacturing in the UK. The project aims to deliver cutting edge science and the engineering research required to create carbon neutral, resource efficient UK steel supply chains.
