SGM SCRAP CLEANING LINE FOR HMS - SCL MODEL
European Patent: EP2908955 A1
US Patent: US9,475,063 B2
Typically HMS contains between 6-12% of contaminants which negatively impacts on:
- Furnace yield and electricity cost per ton of ferrous produced
- Production of slag
- Consumption of Lime
The SGM Scrap Cleaning Line for HMS allows to reduce the contaminants in HMS to less than 1%.
The saving on electricity and higher furnace yield can alone result in a pay-back of less than 18 months based on a minimum of 300.000 tons of HMS processed per year.
The 6 to 12% non-ferrous removed from the HMS can be sold to metal recyclers for their typical valuable non-ferrous metal content.
