Enviri’s ALTEK to Join REAL ALLOY’s US Department of Energy Zero-Waste Recycling Project
Enviri 's subsidiary ALTEK has partnered with REAL ALLOY to develop a zero-waste aluminum salt slag recycling facility in Wabash, Indiana, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy. The project will utilize ALTEK's AluSalt™ technology to recycle metallics and salts while recovering non-metallic products. The technology aims to reduce carbon emissions, eliminate landfill waste, and generate reusable byproducts for the cement and steel industries. ALTEK, acquired by Enviri in 2018, currently operates in over 600 locations worldwide, focusing on improving operating efficiencies and waste management in the aluminum industry.
ALTEK, filiale di Enviri, ha collaborato con REAL ALLOY per sviluppare un impianto di riciclo di scarti di alluminio a zero rifiuti a Wabash, Indiana, in collaborazione con il Dipartimento dell'Energia degli Stati Uniti. Il progetto utilizzerà la tecnologia AluSalt™ di ALTEK per riciclare materiali metallici e sali, recuperando prodotti non metallici. Questa tecnologia mira a ridurre le emissioni di carbonio, eliminare i rifiuti in discarica e generare sottoprodotti riutilizzabili per le industrie del cemento e dell'acciaio. ALTEK, acquisita da Enviri nel 2018, opera attualmente in oltre 600 località in tutto il mondo, concentrandosi sul miglioramento dell'efficienza operativa e sulla gestione dei rifiuti nell'industria dell'alluminio.
