Every sector faces unique challenges in the transition to sustainability. Across each, materials will play a key role. That will depend on novel materials and processes, but these will only be effective with a solid understanding of the trends in the market. For each respective sector, the papers in this collection will explore the trends and drivers toward sustainability, the enabling materials technologies and challenges, and the tools to evaluate their implications. Major sections in REWAS 2019 include:Disruptive Material Manufacturing: Scaling and Systems ChallengesEducation and Workforce DevelopmentRethinking ProductionSecondary and Byproduct Sources of Materials, Minerals, and Metals

The 7th installment of the REWAS conference series held at the TMS Annual Meeting& Exhibition focuses on developing tomorrow’s technical cycles.

Carbon intensive industries are at a crossroads. Long-term manufacturing plans using pyrometallurgical processes all include decarbonization levers: we must solve the problem of fossil-based reduction and fossil-based power generation processes for metals production. This collection explores innovative and diverse strategies for the enablement of low carbon industries in the high-temperature metals and materials processing fields. In particular, the following processes are investigated:·       Electrolysis and electrification of metallurgical processes ·       High-temperature electrolytic routes for metal and alloy production ·       Use of hydrogen and other alternative non-carbonaceous reducing agents ·       Biofuels and other non-fossil reagents for metallurgical applications ·       Direct andindirect use of solar energy in high-temperature processing ·       Energy efficiency and waste heat recovery concepts applied to pyrometallurgical operations

This collection explores the methods and challenges of containing corrosive and abrasive materials at extreme temperatures, whether they are used across commodities or technology specific. There is much to be learned from cross-commodity and cross-technology perspectives and this collection creates a platform for the exchange of ideas on the challenges, solutions, failures, and successes in furnace containment designs and applications while bringing together perspectives from industry, design houses, and research institutions. Topics include, but are not limited to: ·       Advances in furnace lining design philosophies·       Advances in furnace design configurations and other design considerations·       Problems experienced and their solutions implemented during construction and commissioning·       Integration of new concepts into old smelters·       Back to basics: refractory materials, shells, and cooling systems·       Maintaining and monitoring·       Process control and slag design·       Lessons learned
