  • Publication number: 20230382726
    Abstract: A process for the obtention of a hydrogen-rich gas stream from aluminium waste by obtaining a process water resulting from contacting aluminium salt slag with tap water, adding the process water of the previous step to an aluminium waste in a solution, and the hydrolysis of that solution to obtain the gas stream. The process is capable to obtain a yield of reaction close to 100% in higher reaction times.

  • Patent number: 8569565
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for recycling SPL from primary aluminum production, comprising the steps of grinding the separated fractions or cuts, separating materials by means of mechanical treatment, mixing salt slags with SPL, dissolving in water the product obtained in the previous step, carrying out a chemical reaction between water and the materials to be made inert, sedimenting, removing cyanides, filtering to obtain a soluble fraction and another insoluble fraction, washing the insoluble fraction, crystallizing salts of the soluble fraction and aging or conditioning the insoluble fraction. The present invention further relates to the product obtained by means of said process and the use thereof in different fields of the art.

  • Patent number: 7867318
    Abstract: Process of treating filter dust (3) of the type produced in aluminium recycling processes in a recycling system for recycling the metal (1) of salt slag recycling (2), including at least a pyrolysis step (31) in which the filter dust (30) enter a rotating auger where it is heated to a temperature of not less than 500° C. and not more than 600° C.; and in which the organic and toxic substances breakdown in this heating and part of the carbon and other combustibles burn in the controlled presence of air, this air being mixed with the dust by the movement of the rotating auger (310); in which organic materials are oxidized due to the oxygen provided; and in which the solid result of the pyrolysis step (31) is added to the general salt slag recycling process (2).

  • Publication number: 20080141829
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of treating filter powders (3) of the type produced in aluminum recycling processes in a recycling system for recycling the metal (1) of saline slag recycling (2), comprising at least a pyrolysis step (31) in which the filter powders (30) enter a rotating auger where they are heated to a temperature of not less than 500° C. and not more than 600° C.; and in which the organic and toxic substances breakdown in this heating and part of the carbon and other combustibles burn in the controlled presence of air, this air being mixed with the powder by the movement of the rotating auger; in which organic materials are oxidized due to the oxygen provided; and in which the solid result of the pyrolysis step (31) is added to the general saline slag recycling process (2).
