Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus and a method for recovering good solder for re-use from dross. Dross is introduced into a chamber (108) which is heated, whilst agitation is provided by means e.g. of an impeller (116). Recovered solder is drained through a drain valve (118) which is suitably thermally activated. Waste can be collected by inversion of the vessel via a motorised pivot.
