Thank you, Lancor - Electric Motors, for highlighting Harmony Project EU! 🌍 We indeed hope to be a game-changer for Europe's rare earth element supply chain. With partners like you, we're confident in building a robust recycling circuit that will reduce our dependency on imports and foster sustainability in the NdFeB magnet industry. Together, we're not just ensuring technological advancements, but also paving the way for a more resilient and eco-friendly future. ♻️🔋 #Sustainability #HARMONYProject #CircularEconomy #EUIndependence #magnetrecycling
#Europe imports around 16 thousand tons of #RareEarthElements each year from China, representing 98% of its demand. That vulnerability in terms of price and supply control has become a key concern for European companies. ♻️El European Harmony Project EU, led by #Ceit, emerged as a solution to this problem, providing a recycling system for end-of-life NdFeB permanent magnets, a crucial initiative to ensure EU independence and stability in this field of activity. Lancor - Motores Eléctricos is proud to be part of this project which as our colleagues at Ceit Centro Tecnológico comment will develop a recycling circuit that will include: 👇 ♻️ The collection and disassembly of #magnets and #residues of #electrical and #electronic devices, ♻️ Recovery of #REEs through indirect #recycling processes, ♻️ Production of recycled #NdFeB powder, ♻️ Magnet fabrication from that #powder, and its validation. 🌟 Eight pilot schemes will be launched to ensure the effectiveness and feasibility of this whole project, which means it will reach a TRL 6-7 level in terms of technological maturity, where #Lancor will be participating.
