## Posts

- [Aluminium Dross Technologies: Five Routes Compared](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/mainstream-dross-technologies-comparison/): Aluminium dross is not one material and there is no single best route.
- [Oxy-Fuel Firing in Tilting Rotary Furnaces: What Holds](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/dross-salt-slag-oxy-fuel-rotary-furnaces/): Oxy-fuel firing is widely credited with two numbers: a 70% reduction in flue gas volume and a 40% gain in thermal efficiency.

## Pages

- [Mission & Independence](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/about/mission-independence/): AluminiumRecycling exists to produce technical documentation that a metallurgical engineer, an environmental compliance officer or a procurement team can act on without first asking who paid for it.
- [Contact](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/contact/): This is a small institute with a specific remit. We read everything that arrives through this form, but we can only act on part of it.
- [Terms of Use](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/terms-of-use/): These terms govern your use of this website. By accessing it you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
- [Resources & Data](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/resources/): This is the site's single reference table.
- [Editorial Standards & Citation Policy](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/about/editorial-standards-citation-policy-aluminiumrecycling/): This page exists so that a reader can check our work without trusting us first.
- [About Us](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/about/): AluminiumRecycling functions as an independent technical research institute for aluminium recycling technology.
- [Patents & Pioneers](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/patents-pioneers/): The shift from open-floor dross cooling to controlled-atmosphere handling, and from manual skimming to mechanical pressing, is documented in patent texts.
- [Insights & Trends](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/insights/): Technical choices in the casthouse are made under external constraints.
- [Casthouse Equipment](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/casthouse-equipment/): Recovery performance is bounded by hardware and by time.
- [Technologies & Processes](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/technologies/): Aluminium dross is a mixture of oxide and entrained metallic aluminium — reported metallic content spans 30–70% by weight, reaching up to 80% in some primary-production skims.
- [Home](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/): We document what happens between the melting furnace and the landfill — dross formation, metal recovery, salt slag treatment, and the residue that remains.
- [Privacy Policy](https://mediumpurple-finch-674456.hostingersite.com/privacy-policy/): This policy explains what personal data this website collects, why, how long it is kept, and what rights you have.
