Zinc is essential for the modern world
Zinc is the fourth most used metal which is an essential resource in renewable energy, vehicles, and infrastructure. Its main uses are protecting steel and manufacturing bronze and brass. Recycling zinc is critical for preserving this resource for future generations.
Zincovery: The new way
Zincovery utilises a novel low temperature furnace technology to break zinc ferrite compounds into digestible zinc. The zinc dust is then leached allowing for subsequent recovery with electrowinning. The undissolved sand may be used within the cement industry.
