Overcoming Obstacles to find Opportunities in Climate Change

Climate change is one of the world’s toughest problems. On one side is how the drivers of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions – whether they’re policy changes, technological advancements, or shifting access to capital – will affect our economic performance. The second is that, if these drivers aren’t successful in delivering the required level of emission reductions, we’re going to have increasingly erratic weather, which can also negatively affect the economy.

H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders develops new Technology to recycle Cobalt


Innovation project subsidized by the German state of Lower Saxony

H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders, a subsidiary of Masan High-Tech Materials, is researching a new process for recycling cobalt from scrap metal at its site in in Goslar. Within two years, the development project is intended to lead to a pilot process that can then be scaled up. The German state of Lower Saxony has contributed €800,000 of funding to this innovation.

For decades, H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders has recycled tungsten – primarily from scrap carbide – using its own processes, thereby meeting a significant portion of the raw material needs of the company’s largest production site in Goslar. This scrap also generally contains between five and 20 percent cobalt.

H.C. Starck has expertise in recovering cobalt, as for many years until 2003, the Goslar site processed a three-digit annual tonnage of secondary raw materials into high-purity cobalt oxide and cobalt metal powders. The aim of the current innovation project is to replace the traditional process – which is made up of several different dissolution, electrolysis, precipitation, extraction and cleaning steps – with a considerably more efficient process comprising fewer production steps. The project also aims to reduce environmental impact, such as by lowering energy consumption.

“Our market positioning is based particularly on our innovative power and technological expertise,” says Dr. Julia Meese-Marktscheffel, head of global research and development at H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders. “Our comprehensive experience in metal recycling is now helping us create an innovative approach that allows us to sustainably recover another technology metal from secondary raw materials available on the market. This differentiation also reflects the strategy of our parent group Masan High-Tech Materials, which aims to develop into a leading global supplier of high-tech advanced materials critical to global innovation.”

The EU classes cobalt as a “critical raw material”. As well as acting as a ductile binding matrix in carbides, it is also used in lithium-ion/polymer batteries, meaning it plays an important role in electric vehicles, a key industry of the future. The most important source country for the primary raw material is the Democratic Republic of Congo, responsible for around 65 percent of cobalt mined worldwide.

Fugro’s Vulnerability Assessment informs Port of San Francisco’s safe and sustainable Future

Fugro has completed a geotechnical site characterisation, earthquake hazard and geotechnical vulnerability assessment for the Port of San Francisco’s multi-year, multi-billion dollar Waterfront Resilience Program. The work was conducted over a period of 3 years as part of a multi-hazard risk assessment (MHRA) to identify immediate and long-term hazards, such as those associated with earthquakes, flooding and sea-level rise. As the port’s lead geotechnical engineer for future programme phases, Fugro will use the MHRA inputs to develop and design optimal retrofit solutions for the port’s ageing seawall.
