据阿纳多卢新闻8月1日消息称,英澳跨国矿业公司力拓(Rio Tinto)承诺斥资1.5亿美元创建一个“未来材料中心”项目,寻找为能源转型提供材料的途径。
由伦敦帝国理工学院领导的“力拓未来材料中心”将资助研究项目,以改变重要材料的生产、使用和回收方式。它还旨在使这些材料在环境、经济和社会方面更具可持续性。
根据合作关系,力拓和帝国理工学院将确定一系列需要解决的重大全球挑战。这些将成为该项目与一些国际学术机构合作开展的首批研究项目的基础。
该项目的第一批研究项目将于2024年获得资助,并于2023年下半年创建。力拓将在10年内向该中心投资1.5亿美元。
“为了让世界实现净零排放,我们必须找到更好的方法来提供所需的材料。”力拓首席执行官Jakob Stausholm在一份声明中说。

Rio Tinto invests $150 million in search for green energy resources
Anglo-Australian multinational mining company Rio Tinto has committed $150 million to create a 'Center for Future Materials' project to find ways to provide materials for the energy transition.
The 'Rio Tinto Centre for Future Materials,' led by Imperial College London, will fund research programs to transform the way vital materials are produced, used and recycled. It also aims to make these materials more environmentally, economically and socially sustainable.
Under the partnership, Rio Tinto and Imperial College will define a set of major global challenges that need to be addressed. These will form the basis of the first research programs the project pursues in partnership with a selection of international academic institutions.
The project's first research programs will be funded in 2024, once it is created in the second half of 2023. Rio Tinto will invest $150 million in the center over a 10-year period.
'For the world to reach net zero, we must find better ways to provide the materials it needs,' Rio Tinto Chief Executive Officer Jakob Stausholm was quoted as saying in a statement.
