Scope: With an increase in the amounts of materials being consumed, the quantity of secondary and recycled materials is rapidly growing. While dedicated secondary smelters exist for processing these materials, the incorporation of these feeds in a primary smelter offers a low cost and easy way to increase the amount of these materials being processed. This topic focuses on the challenges and opportunities in incorporating secondary and recycled materials in a primary smelter.
