Heavy Industrial Waste Recycling & Beneficial Reuse

From slag and spent sand to baghouse dust and refractory brick, we provide dedicated and specialized support to foundries, steel mills, and cement plants in effectively managing their most challenging and complex waste streams via recycling and beneficial reuse. Our comprehensive landfill diversion strategies are carefully and meticulously designed to ensure full compliance with stringent, ever-changing, and evolving regulatory environments, all while simultaneously driving significant cost savings, enhancing operational efficiencies, and promoting sustainable waste management practices.

Types of Materials

How It Works

  1. Waste audit & goals — volumes, physical form, chemistry/COA, handling & loading

  2. Sampling & qualification — spec review, trial load(s), outlet QA and acceptance

  3. Approvals & compliance — beneficial-use determinations where required; documentation set-up

  4. Logistics & execution — bulk, roll-off, dump, super-sack, railcar; scheduling and routing

  5. Reporting & optimization — diversion reports, cost/quality feedback, continuous improvement

FAQs

Which heavy-industry materials do you recycle or reuse?
Foundry sand, slag/clinker, refractory brick, baghouse dust, spent abrasives/filter media, aggregate fines, scrap metal, and mill scale—matched to qualified outlets.

What are the most common beneficial-reuse outlets?
Cement/raw mix, aggregate & engineered fill, soil stabilization, mineral fillers, and metal recovery—depending on chemistry, moisture, and approvals.

How do you qualify an outlet for my material?
We review your COA and photos, arrange sampling and (if needed) a trial load, confirm outlet QA, secure any required state beneficial-use approvals, then lock in the logistics and reporting flow.

Minimum volumes and packaging?
Best economics at bulk or full-truckload/rail volumes; we also handle roll-offs, covered bins, super sacks, or dump trucks—material-dependent.

Do you support national, multi-site programs?
Yes—nationwide sourcing, hauling, and centralized reporting for multi-plant networks.

What documentation do you need to start?
Current COA/specs, photos, volumes, storage/loading method, and any regulatory constraints or prior approvals.

How is pricing determined?
By material value and outlet, contamination/moisture, distance/logistics, and handling requirements. Our aim is a higher net-back than landfill alternatives.

Can you handle baghouse dust and filter cake?
Yes—solution depends on chemistry and moisture; some outlets require drying or blending before reuse.
