AISTECH in the US and Future Aluminum Forum

A Peek Into the North American Steel and Aluminum Industries

25 May 2023, Sustainability, Technology, Production

In recent years, metals producers are actively working towards decarbonizing the industry. This has led to breakthroughs in the use of hydrogen, renewable energy and digital transformation in producing green steel.This brings about numerous questions like, how can green steel and aluminum produced in the US be protected against imported ones with high CO₂ footprint? How can producers leverage renewable energy for cheaper and optimized production? Furthermore, how can aluminum producers achieve the net zero target? These are some of the issues discussed at AISTECH in the US and Future Aluminum Forum, Canada in May 2023.

Digital Railway Atlas: Process Networking – The Basis for a Digital Railway

01 Feb 2023, Transport, Technology, Sustainability

Most transport companies have not had to deal with paper mountains for some time now. When we talk about digitalization today we mean the step-by-step networking of formerly autonomous and now digitalized processes into an integrated and highly efficient overall system. To be successful, transport companies need, among other things, detailed and complete route data from all their consumers – a kind of digital railway atlas.

The Bigger Picture: Global Metals Market Trends and Outlook, 2023

15 Dec 2022, Artificial Intelligence, Technology, Sustainability, Energy

The metals industry has witnessed a rollercoaster year in 2022 with sudden increases and declines in prices and product demand. This was owing to several factors like inflation in the global economy, high-energy prices, increased interest rates, the US monetary tightening, China’s economic deceleration, the ripple effect of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, supply chain constraint and low demand of metals products. These effects have continued towards the end of 2022. But what would the trend look like for the industry in 2023?
