Located in Wabash, Indiana, the facility will utilise ALTEK's advanced AluSalt™ technology to recycle metallic materials and salts while also recovering other valuable non-metallic products. Enviri acquired ALTEK in 2018 to enhance the Harsco Environmental division's expertise in metal recovery and byproduct reuse, extending its reach into the aluminium industry.
With equipment operating at over 600 locations globally, ALTEK partners with customers to deliver innovative solutions that boost operational efficiency and productivity, minimise waste generation, and maximise value extraction from waste streams.
"ALTEK is very excited to work with REAL ALLOY on this first-of-its-kind, milestone project for the U.S. aluminium industry as they work toward achieving aggressive sustainability goals. Our AluSalt technology is designed to reduce carbon emissions, eliminate landfill associated with salt slag recycling, and generate byproducts that can be reused back in REAL ALLOY'S recycling process, as well as within the cement and steel industries," said James Herbert, managing director of ALTEK.
