Resource Management Interest Group

The Resource Management Interest Group provides a forum to identify, evaluate and disseminate methods, best practice and legislative issues in the processing of solid and liquid materials including energy associated with manufacturing.

The group's aim is to promote and facilitate industry led activities which maximise efficiency in the use and re-use of resources and to minimise the costs and the environmental impact of manufacturing operations. The promotion of transfer of knowledge between industry sectors and awareness of emerging technologies is seen as a major role of the group.
