Nowadays, the use of waste materials from various technologies is increasingly discussed, not only in terms of environmental impact, but especially in terms of reducing primary raw materials wherever appropriate. One such use appears to be the reuse of material by recycling and subsequent processing of selected multi-metallic high temperature materials (in this case, for example, tungsten-based alloys/composites). It is this reuse of waste as a substitute for original, relatively expensive raw materials supplied by external suppliers and the application of selected recycling technologies that will serve as a suitable alternative compared to the use of original raw materials. Selected high-temperature composite materials are, for example, part of transport containers (together with steel elements) or radiation shielding elements. These materials have specific material properties (e.g. high material density) that can be clearly exploited in the design and construction of energy components. These material properties, as well as the recycling technology of multi-metallic materials will be discussed in this presentation. Furthermore, the use of such prepared and manufactured components in a defined energy system, which is part of alternative energy sources, will be described.
