Millions of tons of metal fines, swarf, flashing, metal chips and borings are disposed every year. The disposal costs and landfill volumes related to this waste are staggering. The lost metal volume is a drag on your profits. In the past, this waste stream could not be recovered as it would burn or oxidize before melting creating lost product and safety hazards.
Solvent Systems has a solution to this problem. We have developed a recovery program for this waste stream. Using an inorganic binder to briquette the waste material, our program offers these benefits:
- Densifying the metal achieves high level of metal recovery.

- Compatible with existing melting technology.
- Custom briquetting of metal waste.
- Top quality Pig Iron substitute.
- Prevents oxidation/rusting.
- High-temperature melting.
- Cold briquetting process.
- Low cost.
This product development provides the cast iron manufacturing industry a simple, economical way to recover the substantial value of metallic process wastes, reduce disposal costs, and reduce raw material expense. Very simply, our high-grade product is a substitute for pig iron and No. 1 heavy bundles.
