SALEMA: Substituting Critical Raw Materials in Aluminium Alloys for Electrical Vehicles

Launched in May 2021, the EU-funded SALEMA project aims to create brand new, high-performance aluminium alloys and demonstrate their suitability in automotive applications.SALEMA will implement a circular economy model to reintegrate scrap aluminium materials into the primary aluminium manufacturing process of car parts. This circular economy will lead to a more sustainable industry and less dependence on non-EU imports. The project consortium spans 6 European countries and involves 16 partners. It is expected to run until May 2024.
