Magnet matters: Why recycling permanent magnets is crucial for our future
Permanent magnets are the silent workhorses of the clean-tech revolution. They are embedded in wind-turbine generators, electric-vehicle (EV) motors, pumps, robots, sensors and most household appliances. Europe’s demand for high-performance magnets is rising quickly, yet most of these components still depend on rare-earth elements such as neodymium and dysprosium. These materials are largely mined and […]
