DESCRIPTION:Prof. Dr. Hauke Springer Sustainable Metallurgy\, Departme
 nt Mechanical and Process Engineering\, University Duisburg-Essen Sust
 ainable metallurgy &#8211\; leveraging nano-scaled understanding for b
 ulk processes Metallic materials are a key enabler for modern civiliza
 tion\, but their long\, complex and interwoven lifecycles from mining 
 raw materials to end-of-life treatments also represent an enormous imp
 act on the global energy consumption\, climate effects and environment
 al pollution. This talk presents selected insights into current challe
 nges and opportunities of research into sustainable metallurgy. Three 
 examples highlight the potential of leveraging nano-scaled understandi
 ng for improving the bulk metallurgical production processes: the chal
 lenges and solutions for the decarbonization of steel production\, new
  possibilities in lightweight design by overcoming the inherent confli
 cts between stiffness\, density\, strength and ductility\, and lastly 
 opening pathways to a longer lifespan of components by implementing se
 lf-healing capabilities into metallic material microstructures.
