Continuum's Recycled Nickel Material Shown to Significantly Reduce Global Warming Potential per Oregon State LCA
A Life Cycle Assessment by Oregon State University found Continuum Powders’ recycled nickel powder reduces global warming potential (GWP) by 58.8% versus virgin nickel. When the recycled feedstock is paired with green electricity and green argon, the GWP drop reaches 98.7%. The study modeled three scenarios—virgin nickel, recycled nickel, and recycled nickel with renewable utilities—highlighting the dominant emissions from feedstock production. Continuum’s Greyhound M2P System uses DC plasma to reclaim metal into high‑quality powder, positioning it as a low‑carbon alternative for aerospace, defense, and energy applications.
