PRIN Project ALICE - Aluminum Low Impact Circular Economy
The overall objective of ALICE project is to develop an innovative process to abate dramatically the energy used to reuse aluminum scraps, by adopting solid state processes to transform the scraps into new bars and rods, integrated with low energy processes to use such products to create new parts using Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies. AM allows the production of new highly personalized products with complex geometries that could be hardly produced with traditional processes.
The AM used by ALICE will be optimized to have the lowest possible energetic consumption.
Presentation of ALICE results at ESAFORM conference in Paestum. The results of ALICE project have been successfully presented at the ESAFORM conference in Paestum, generating interest from the orther conference attendees. The connection created durign the conference will be profituful both for the exploitation of teh results but also for the creation of a network to further develop the idea of recycling aluminum scraps.
