BEnEfIts Of In-hOusE ZInc REcOvERy Skimming Top Dross Processing Dross with the MZR Tapping the MZR Reusing Recovered Zinc Applied waste management studies indicate that few hot dip galvanizers are aware of the true value of the skimmings created during production. Traditional recycling practices involve direct resale to specialist recovery companies or involve limited in-house recovery by sieving/puddling followed by a devalued sale of the fines to a trader. One option is to increase the value of the galvanizing skimmings by recovering the free zinc available in them and selling the remaining ZnO powder residues to the zinc chemical industry. Data collected over several years indicates that recoverable zinc from galvanizing skimmings varies between 60-80% with an average of about 70% by weight. Spin galvanizing and tube galvanizing recoveries average about 80%. Continuous galvanizing line dross averages 75-85% recoverable zinc. In-house Zinc Recovery technology Referred to as the Metaullics Zinkoff Recovery System (MZR), the unit is the continuation of technology introduced over 10 years ago. At the heart of the MZR is a thermo-mechanical device able to separate free zinc from material mixtures and top drosses. The MZR is a highly efficient in-house industrial system able to recover non-ferrous metal from industrial process wastes and top drosses including, hot dip skimmings and dust, continuous galvanizing top dross, primary and secondary zinc refining operations.
MEtAullIcs ZInkOff REcOvERy systEM MZR-750 Representing proven technology for in-house zinc recovery, the MZR-750 has a waste processing capacity of 750 kg (1650 lbs.) for each batch process to yield about 400- 500 kg of technically re-usable metal or alloy. The unit is simple to operate and does not need special, dedicated staff recruitment to man it. Operating costs are dependent on the costs applicable to the country of operation but the main cost factors involved are: Gas: Approximately 25 m³ (800 ft3 max) per burn (optional oil with approximately 25 litres [6.6 gallons] per burn) Labor: About 60 minutes per burn Barrel: Life depends on conditions and usage MZR Recovered Metal Analyses The analyses of reclaimed metal from the MZR reflects the analyses of the process metal the type of galvanizing being carried out (batch, continuous, wire, tube, etc). Experience built over many years of MZR use and operation in partnership with a wide range of customers indicates that reclaimed metal is both technically and commercially acceptable for re-use and re-introduction into the process kettles and baths from which it originally came. MZR-1500 The MZR-1500 is the latest development with in-house zinc recovery. It has been designed and built to specifications requested by large top dross volume producers such as primary and secondary metal refiners and alloy producers, continuous galvanizers and large general hot dip galvanizing groups. The MZR-1500 has an increased waste processing capacity of 1500 kg (3300 lbs.). Heating chamber efficiency is upgraded with a 100 mm thickness of low thermal mass insulation in the walls and the heating source is a system of high efficiency burners. The MZR-1500 is more user friendly, with greater ease in loading the drum.
