Abstract

Foundries produce metal castings from ferrous or non-ferrous alloys and they operate in various locations around the world. A typical foundry workplace is composed of furnace area, pouring area, core making area, shaking out area and fettling area. The manufacturing process involves the melting of metal into a liquid, the pouring of molten metal into a cast, the removing of casting and the cleaning / finishing of the cast piece. Dusts arise almost in every of these steps of foundry processes. Solid waste streams from foundries are primarily used foundry sand, foundry dust (collected by dry or wet electrostatic precipitators) or fabric filters, slag, scrap metal and various other types of waste arising. The main aim of this paper was to determine foundry dusts recyclability rate by their addition into the sand mixtures.
