Abstract: A method of recycling hazardous and non-hazardous industrial wastes to reclaim valuable metals, metal alloys, and metal oxides, and to produce mineral wool. Wastes including hazardous wastes of USEPA Series D, F, P, K, and U are pulverized and blended with liquids such as water or wastewater to produce a homogeneous mass. Calcium from calcium-stabilized wastes is used to enhance the quality of the mineral wool, lower the sulfur content, remove phosphorous, and raise pH to facilitate metal reduction. The mass is formed into briquettes and melted in a cupola or shaft furnace in the presence of carbon or aluminum to reduce metals. Other types of furnaces such as an electric arc furnace may be used to avoid the steps of forming and curing briquettes. Reduction is carried out at temperatures between 1660 and 3100 degrees Fahrenheit. Reducible metals are reduced and drawn off into molds. Substantial purity is obtained in the recovered reducible metals.

Abstract: New iron rich metal alloys containing aluminum and copper along with specific amounts of boron are disclosed. The alloys are subjected to rapid solidification processing (RSP) technique which produces cooling rates between .about.10.sup.5 to 10.sup.7 .degree.C./sec. The as-quenched ribbon, powder etc. consists primarily of a metastable crystalline solid solution phase. The metastable crystalline phases are subjected to suitable heat treatments so as to produce a transformation to a stable multiphase microstructure which includes borides; this heat treated alloy exhibits superior mechanical properties with good corrosion and/or oxidation resistance for numerous engineering applications.
