Aluminum slag recycling line recovers aluminum scrap, purified from magnetic impurities (ferrous metal) and slag.
Problem description:
Processing of nonferrous metal slags is an actual task, which helps to return thousands tons of metal dumps into production. Introduction of the closed-loop economy principles, environmental scarcity, and aggravation of the ecological safety problem determine the need to search for sources of secondary raw materials, processing and increasing its share in the overall structure of production.
Aluminum slag is formed in the process of the production of primary aluminum, aluminum alloys and alloyed products, and after recycling of aluminum scrap and materials. The slag formed in different industries differs in the content of aluminum, aluminum oxide and flux. As a rule, slags contain from 5 to 80% aluminum in various forms, from free metal to oxides.
Based on the conducted laboratory testing, ERGA specialists developed optimum process solution for complete processing of aluminum production slag in accordance with the Customer’s requirements. A simple solution ensures production of the recyclables ready for reuse in smelting and production, which reduces the loss of non-ferrous metal.
