Full Scrap Metal Plant 07 09 2017

[@totalrecone]

Props to the videographer. Great shots that clearly show the process and no droning commentary means one can hear what is going on. An awesome vid that is clear and very well made.

[@JaakkoF]

Indeed great video, but some subtitles would have been nice to explain what is being done. I work in the metal industry, so for me it is obvious, but many more would benefit from seeing these. Also, this video could be shortened to 4 minutes as there is a lot of the same, like showing the palleting robot over and over.

[@totalrecone]

@@JaakkoF Very good point. Subs would be a valuable addition.

Ya really no need for commentary as it is obvious what is going on. A very satisfying video to watch!

Impressive. Kudos to the people responsible for setting up that plant.

It's looks so clean and beautifully organized. Fantastic.

[@felixcat9318]

What a fascinating insight into the operation of an efficient, modern aluminium recycling facility! The entire process was a balletic interaction of streamlined efficiency and workplace safety. By recycling on this scale the benefits over extracting virgin ores are huge.

[@CuriousEarthMan]

Thanks for posting that! And for letting us hear actual productions sounds. So many good parts to it. Very noticeable is no dross skimming from the molds once the bars are poured. I have to check again and see if dross is ever skimmed in that system. Thanks again!

When managed and processed properly Recycled Metals is just as good as metals made from freshly mined material. Recycling keep the metal business balanced as the Recycling and Ore industries work hand and hand... Also shoutout to the gatherers/sellers of the metals as without them this nor any products derived from this is not possible

[@ravibele]

Very nice working 👍🏻

[@SaravanaKumar-ty6pq]

It's a brand new line and many drives have been used for automation. A strong maintenance team has to be deployed to minimise the downtime since the ambience will be dusty and fine ashes will bound to damage the drives.

[@sydneyshinshi]

I don't think there would be much dust at all Saravana. There is no milling, grinding or anything really to produce dust. Hence no dust masks.

[@andrewevanoff1192]

The drives are designed to be installed in dusty/dirty environments, if installed without an enclosure. All automation PLCs, electronics and wiring are also protected as per electrical codes. Some sensors will require periodic cleaning but it's no big deal. Modern automation is very reliable and, in most cases, easier to troubleshoot than old relay logic. A plant like this requires less maintenance personnel than an old plant. Obviously they need an engineer level person to maintain, troubleshoot and modify the process control equipment.

[@wartfodious1477]

Oh my God, stirring material with an exterior gas powered vehicle with door open. 1900's Brah! Just think how many BTU's escaped with that furnace door being sllloowwly opened and slooowwlly closed. I recycle all of my old plumbing materials and am so glad to see a plant like this. But I cannot believe that it is new and has so many discrepancies in energy conservation.

[@michaelchadwick3497]

More efficient than you think. Ther is 24/32 inches of refractory on the wall and door. The nozzles with the flame in them are on low when the door is open. When the door shuts they kick on high and sound almost as loud as an airliner taking off. Where i worked we would drain them , open the doors and the next day would set up industrial fans . Would be 6/7 days before anyone could go inside to work.

[@anthonyjohn8339]

Probably porosity picked up by the yellow X-ray(?) m/c

[@haroldsmith45302]

Anthony John Or the mass was out-of-tolerance. I speculate that since they are ingots which will be remelted, porosity might not be a reject-able defect.

Could be misshaped, ingot needs to be able to stack nicely

Recycling aluminium is very profitable. Aluminium from raw ore is very expensive and takes a lot of energy to refine and produce pure Aluminium. It only takes 5% of the energy to recycle vs from ore - "The price of virtue". The Economist. 7 June 2007.

[@foxsoul7899]

Like UltraNoob said it is much more cost efficient to recycle and you dont need those extremely enviroment harming chemicals you need for the raw ore refinery. There are some documentaries here on youtube, where you can see the huge mess they have with the seperation of the aluminium minearls from the bauxit ore. And you can also see what happens if they do it wrong.

[@77gravity]

They have kept the smelting separate from the pouring, including that big intermediate molten tank. A wall in between, and just a continuous flow of molten metal going through, almost no slag except new oxide. Dirty side, clean side. Many industries and businesses could learn from this. And house designers too. Keep the place you sh*t separate from the place you get clean. (and a hand basin with the toilet). Same for food safety - clean and prep one side, ready to eat on the other - no mixing, one-way traffic.
