Lightning Machines has been awarded funding to investigate the application of high voltage electric pulses in the recovey of raw materials from electric vehicle (EV) motors.
Read MoreLawrence Carter’s 2022 paper using electric pulse fragmentation to unlock the secrets of porphyry ore body formation was Nature Communications 30th most downloaded article of last year. This work shifts our thinking from a slow build up or fertile magmas to them developing over a much shorter timescale…read more
Read MoreVirgin CFRP's are energy intensive and expensive to create however, and locks valuable carbon fibres in resin. Incorporating recycled CFRP into new products can significantly reduce the energy and monetary cost of production, however used CFRP is difficult to recycle due to it’s resilience, posing a challenge for the future. Can new technologies solve this modern recycling problem?
Read MorePublished in the October 2022 edition of Nature Scientific Reports, this article addresses the previously fragmented understanding of the magmatic timescales associated with porphyry-deposit formation through study of the the world’s best exposed porphyry system
