Abstract

Recycling of metals from secondary sources is a growing industry. Metals are a renewable resource. Most metals are used in industry in a fairly massive elemental form, which greatly facilitates recycling. In the field of metallurgy Czech Republic belongs to typical processing countries without their own resources of raw materials. The use of metallurgical and other metal containing waste is therefore of significant economic importance. The overall concept of metallurgical production affects not only the economic aspects of production, but also quantity, properties and possibilities of recycling of the waste generated within the metallurgical company. Briquetting processes become at the iron- and steelmaking, an increasingly important factor also in the central European conditions.

Keywords: metallurgical waste, recycling, economic utilization, briquetting processes
