Emission mitigation potential of lightweight intermetallic TiAl components

This paper was published in a special edition of Intermetallics (5-year IF 1.926, ranked 8th in Metallurgy and Metallurgical Engineering) on TiAl in 2011, and represents the summary of the life cycle assessment of two gamma titanium aluminide alloys done for the 41M Euro IMPRESS FP6 project. The work required detailed collaboration with project partners such as University of Birmingham, Doncasters, Rolls-Royce, RWTH (Aachen, Germany) and other European partners on the project. Has recently led to enquiries by Siemens on the methodology of life cycle inventory for the primary extraction of Niobium, as it is the first time this data has been published.
