Metals play a crucial role in supporting the global economy and the wellbeing of humankind. Supported by the constantly increasing demand for metal-based products, the extraction of mineral resources has increased, over the last decades, at a faster rate than economic growth. This trend is forecasted to steadily increase in the near future, thus leading to concerns over the exploitation of the Earth*s natural resources and the environmental impact that the extraction of metals will have. In this scenario, finding new ways to recycle metals and metal alloys, even those of low purity, is mandatory.
To reduce the carbon footprint and environmental impact that the mining of metals for hydrogen storage purposes entails and to reduce their cost, at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon we pursue the possibility of obtaining high-quality hydride-based materials from industrial metal waste. A complete overview of recent scientific breakthroughs in the synthesis and characterization of hydrogen storage materials made from recovered metal wastes will be presented.
