Production of metals stands for 40% of all industrial greenhouse gas emissions, 10% of the
global energy consumption, 3.2 billion tonnes of minerals mined, and several billion tonnes …

There are several facets of aluminum when it comes to sustainability. While it helps to save
fuel due to its low density, producing it from ores is very energy-intensive. Recycling it shifts …

Even though over 30% of the aluminum produced worldwide now comes from secondary
sources (recycled material), there are few books that cover the recycling process from …

Control of Fe in Al alloys is a severe challenge for the full metal circulation to produce the
recycled alloys with mechanical and physical performance as high as the primary alloys …

Secondary aluminum has received extensive attention due to its low energy consumption,
low emissions, and good recyclability; however, the high impurity iron content in secondary …

In order for light metals to meet the demands for critical applications in the automotive and
aerospace industries, tight control over the composition and cleanliness of the metal must be …

The effects of trace transition elements (Mn, Cr, V) on the solidification microstructure and
the thermal conductivity of Al-9Si based alloys have been investigated. It was found that the …

Computer-aided thermal analysis and phase diagram calculation using the ThermoCalc®
software were used to study the solidification path of Al7. 8Zn2. 6Mg2Cu alloy containing …

With the aim of obtaining a refining flux that is stable and provides effective refining of
aluminum melt, a new strategy of designing the flux composition has been proposed. Ten …

This article examines factors affecting the thermal conductivity of aluminium alloys. More
specifically, thermal conductivity is measured with the Hot Disk method. The work shows that …
