Raw Materials case histories.
PDA journal of pharmaceutical science and technology, 2010Co-Authors: Michael J. RubinoAbstract:This paper describes three case studies involving the handling of Raw Materials. One case study deals with animal-derived Materials. The other two case studies demonstrate the need to also focus on Raw Materials with regard to recombinant bacterial–derived products.

How much does recycling reduce imports? Evidence from metallic Raw Materials
Journal of Environmental Economics and Policy, 2018Co-Authors: Damien Dussaux, Matthieu GlachantAbstract:In countries with limited exhaustible natural resources, reducing imports of Raw Materials is increasingly viewed as a significant side benefit of waste recycling. Using a panel of 21 developed and developing countries from 1994 to 2008, we seek to measure the size of this benefit by estimating the impact of metal scrap recovery on imports of metallic Raw Materials. We address the endogeneity of metal recovery with exogenous country characteristics including population density and the level of education. We also develop a strategy for controlling for the price volatility in Raw material markets. We find that domestic metal recovery is substituted for imports of secondary Raw Materials while leaving imports of primary Raw Materials unaffected. The overall effect is a 3.3% decrease in imports of metallic Raw Materials when metal recovery grows by 10%. Thus, waste recycling policies may have a sizeable impact on trade balance and on security of Raw material supply.

Supply planning for processors of agricultural Raw Materials
European Journal of Operational Research, 2015Co-Authors: Susanne Wiedenmann, Jutta GeldermannAbstract:Material use of agricultural Raw Materials as renewable resources is gaining increasing importance in industrial production. Seasonal availability as well as variations in Raw material quantity and quality and of market prices need to be considered in supply planning. This research depicts the planning problem of a processor of agricultural Raw Materials and illustrates it with data on the industrial use of linseed oil, which is a promising Raw material for the production of new polymers. A two-stage stochastic program provides decision support and is applied to the example. The approach can be used for a variety of planning problems concerning the supply of agricultural Raw Materials.

Raw Materials associated with extractive industry: An overview
Resources Policy, 2018Co-Authors: Nicola Careddu, Giovanna Antonella Dino, Svein Willy Danielsen, Richard PřikrylAbstract:Abstract Globalization, growth in consumption levels and emerging economies such as China and India has led to increasing concerns about the availability of specific mineral Raw Materials. These resources are finite and rapidly depleting; in the meantime, demand continues to increase. This results in the overall increase in the value of mineral Raw material and in the subsequent dramatic price spikes and fluctuations. Therefore, resource security is now a priority for governments of developed countries. The security of supply of the so-called ‘critical’ Raw Materials (CRM), with rare earths (REE) has attracted the greatest attention in the press. The “criticality” concept is based on the combination of economic importance and supply risk for the Mineral Raw Materials (MRM). The EU relies on extra European countries for the vast majority of their critical Raw Materials (CRM) supply, putting manufacturing and industrial activities within the EU at risk and causing high economic dependence on non-EU countries. On the other hand, these factors drive a need for new sources of mineral Raw Materials, and, on the other, a need for the EU to reduce its reliance on global imports of such Materials and to become more independent.
