MZR-750

Overview

The Pyrotek MZR-750 zinc recovery system has a capacity for 750 kilograms (1650 pounds) of skimmings. The system makes it viable for galvanizers and zinc processors to do in-house recovery of zinc. It uses a thermomechanical process to separate free zinc from material mixtures and top drosses. The recovered zinc is both technically and commercially acceptable for direct reuse into processes.    

Benefits

  • Approximate 6-month return on investment when calculating for 180 tonnes of dross per year
  • Low operational cost; does not require dedicated staff
  • No London Metal Exchange (LME) premium on recovered zinc
  • Reduces the volume of residual skimmings for disposal
  • Reduces the volume of virgin zinc purchased at LME rates
  • Value in residual skimmings after zinc removal
