SUMMARY:Waste Management and Critical Raw Materials
DESCRIPTION:Learn about waste management and its key role in saving critica
 l raw materials. Gain practical knowledge of the circular economy\, recycl
 ing\, refurbishment\, and remanufacturing as a means of identifying new bu
 siness opportunities. About this course How can we ensure the continuous s
 upply of the increasingly scarce raw materials that are needed to make the
  products we use every day? In this course\, we will look at the potential
  benefits of circular procurement and how recycling technologies and more 
 efficient ways of collecting and recycling critical raw materials (CRMs) c
 an make your business and production more resource resilient. A good numbe
 r of the materials found in everyday products are now referred to as "crit
 ical". This means that there is a risk of failure in their supply and that
  they are also critical in terms of economic importance. Many metals\, for
  instance\, are already critical or could become critical in the near futu
 re due to their limited availability and the growing demand for products w
 orldwide. Think of the newest electronic products that contain critical me
 tals such as gallium\, which is used in integrated circuits\; beryllium\, 
 used in electronic and telecommunications equipment and permanent magnets 
 and germanium found in infra-red optics. Innovative product design and reu
 sing\, recycling and remanufacturing products can help to deal with a raw 
 materials shortage. But this can only provide an integrated solution if we
  keep CRMs in the loop through smarter CRM management. The starting point 
 is to identify CRMs in products. It is not always clear what materials are
  in which products. It is\, therefore\, necessary to keep all metals in th
 e loop for as long as possible. Scarcity in the supply chain can not only 
 damage businesses but also negatively impact economic development and the 
 environment. For this reason\, the course will also discuss environmental 
 issues and electric and electronic waste regulations. Length: 6 weeks\, Ef
