Anticipating future trends in the aluminum recycling industry, TOMRA Recycling will hold its first global metals sorting webinar "Aluminum Recycling Industry Outlook - Key Sorting Technologies, Innovations & Opportunities in a Circular Economy" on May 20 at 3 p.m. CEST (9 a.m. EDT).
The aluminum recycling industry is constantly evolving. A rise in electric vehicle production, the trend toward more lightweight cars and the outstanding features this non-ferrous metal offers numerous industries is resulting in increased demand for this highly versatile material. This rise in demand offers a significant valuable proposition for the industry as it strongly encourages a more sustainable production which, in turn, supports the industry on its progress towards greener aluminum production.
As a leader in metal sorting technology, TOMRA's webinar will further explore the future of the global aluminum recycling industry and detail how recycling can build the bridge between and supplement market pull and the industry push for greener aluminum.
In the 45-minute live session, attendees will learn more about the changing landscape of the aluminum recycling industry. Patrik Ragnarsson, Senior Manager Automotive and Transport at European Aluminium, will address general trends in the automotive sector, especially regarding the increase in electric vehicle production, and will detail the role aluminum plays within the sector.
First-hand experience in the scrap recycling landscape and the importance of having advanced technologies in place will be presented by Edward George, Commercial Manager at Alutrade Ltd., which has developed a high-tech approach to aluminum recycling. Finally, TOMRA's Segment Managers Metal Recycling, Tom Jansen and Terence Keyworth, will cover recent innovations in sensor-based sorting technology, which help aluminum recyclers take advantage of increasing demand for this versatile non-ferrous material.
A closing and interactive Q&A session at the end of the webinar will provide an opportunity to explore specific topics in more detail.
