The objective of my sabbatical is to improve my understanding of the technological challenges for making metal production processes more sustainable.I would also like to know better some scientific and technical means of innovation in this domain. Points of attention here are new process metallurgical techniques such as plasma metallurgy and vacuum metallurgy, and supporting modeling techniques (DFT, data analytics, CFD, LCA). For this I want ...
