What is it about?

Sustainable closed loop supply chain between vehicles industry and construction materials industry through exploiting of sections of end-of-life vehicles frames as steel cores of honeycomb sandwich panels. Such sections are attributed by high value-added because they are made of hot stamped steel sheets with good thicknesses by using matured manufacturing technology. Reclamation of steel sections can help reduce energy and material consumption and Co2 emissions.

Why is it important?

nd-of-life sections can be successfully reclaimed into honeycomb to substitute current consumption of paper, aluminium and stainless steel in field of construction materials which delivered with a reduction in energy consumption and Co2 emission. By using these high value-added sections, mechanical properties of honeycomb can be enhanced to be more than enough for construction application. High levels of cut in both of energy and Co2 emissions are obtained.

Perspectives

Reliable steel cores honeycomb sandwich panels can be produced to be used as construction material by exploiting of manufacturing technology and assembly techniques for reclamation. End-of-life sections are of high value-added and also can reduce using of new materials for making honeycomb as a sustainable manufacturing contribution.
