This project aims to improve the recovery of metals from slag, a by-product of metal smelting, using a novel implosion technology. By separating non-metallic components from metallic particles, the process seeks to reduce costs and environmental impact while increasing metal recovery efficiency.
Slag is a by-product of metal smelting, and ~3.5 million tpa are produced globally in refining Non Ferrous Metals (NFM) and making alloys.
Slag contains impurities and forms a protective crust of non-metallic & metallic oxides, and contains significant ‘free’ & alloyed metal (from 10 to 70% by weight).
While slag can be used as aggregate, there are increasing concerns over ‘leaching’ of heavy metals into water courses from using these materials in civil engineering.
While some metal can be recov…
