SCI-MAT (Sustainable circularity of inorganic materials) examines the circular economy models of metals and industrial minerals by using municipal and electronic waste and side flows from mining and other industry as raw materials. It creates reusable materials with mechanical and hydrometallurgical processes. SCI-MAT is a multidisciplinary research platform which brings together social, environmental, and economic sustainability topics.
