Aluminum Recycling

Aluminum Recycling in the aerospace and automotive industries is aided greatly by briquetting.

Using a briquetter for your aluminum recycling needs can be profitable to your company in that your aluminum metal scrap increases in value once briquetted. This increase is realized because of several factors:

The yield of aluminum recycling is increased because the coolants have been removed from the metal.
The yield of aluminum recycling is further increased because the dense briquettes submerge in the melt bath and are converted into new aluminum while a high percentage of aluminum chips are oxidized into slag or drawn into the baghouse.
The material handling of the aluminum recycling process is aided by the briquettes.

Cleaner material, higher aluminum recycling yields and easier handling rates all translate into higher value aluminum scrap.
