Australian-Developed ‘Greener’ Magnesium Production A Certainty For Automotive Use

The CSIRO and Enirgi Group have announced a new technology for the production of magnesium which uses up to 80 percent less energy and emits up to 60 percent less carbon dioxide emissions.

Cleaner, cheaper, lightweight magnesium is sure to be of interest for the automotive industry especially in this era where electric vehicles are at the forefront of new product development.

And that’s great news for Australia which has massive untapped reserves of magnesite ore.

At the heart of the CSIRO’s ‘MagSonic’ technology is a rocket-engine-like supersonic nozzle.
