Preliminary requirements: scientific or technical advanced education in the fields of chemistry, geology, materials sciences, chemical engineering, materials engineering, environmental engineering.

The EM3 module aims at introducing to an expert audience the topics of critical raw materials by contextualizing it into the broader framework of natural resources and their scarcity. The module will present the methodology Material Flow Analysis as a quantitative tool for research management and its applicability to criticality and circularity.
Detailed insights in the methodology of the criticality assessment will be provided and mitigation measures to decrease the criticality will be discussed. The module includes case studies from several industrially relevant metals.
