Federation for International Refractory Research and Education
ATHOR

ATHOR was project financed under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action European Training network – Innovative Training Network (ETN ITN).
Refractories are heat-resistant materials used as inner linings of high temperature furnaces, reactors and processing units. ATHOR Advanced THermomechanical multiscale mOdelling of Refractory linings was an innovative, collaborative and interdisciplinary project that briought together 7 academic beneficiaries and 8 private partners.
The ATHOR network was deeply committed to provide a combination of research and training activities which will support and enlarge the initiative of the Federation for International Refractory Research and Education (FIRE).

My journey with FIRE began in 2003, together with Prof. Michel Rigaud and other academic and industrial colleagues. In 2005, our first official meeting in Limoges, France, transformed this vision into reality. From the beginning, FIRE was founded on a strong belief in cooperation between universities and industry towards a better education. Its strength has always come from working across institutional, cultural, and national borders.

As the world navigates climate and energy transitions, strong partnerships between industry and academia are more important than ever. In the refractory field, sustainability means not only developing materials for high-temperature applications, but also ensuring the sustainable processing of these materials.
