New Cost-Saving Option for Reclaiming Bonded Sand

Typical thermal and combined mechanical-thermal reclamation processes consume 22-30 m³ of gas per metric ton of sand reclaimed, the FSP technology reduces gas consumption to 13-16 m³ of gas/mt. Accordingly, foundries with sand processing rates of about 6 mt/hour may achieve annual gas savings estimated at € 240,000 euros (about $256,000.)

Inside the heart of Texas at Metroplex Sand & Gravel

Operating as Metroplex Sand & Gravel, Keith describes the Newells' sand and gravel mining company at that time as "the principal economic engine to reclaim and improve [the] floodplain property.

Technology Would Alter Foundries' Sand Calculations

In general, green sand consists of 75-85% sand (silica, chromite, zircon, olivine, or graphite), 5-11% bentonite (clay), 2-4% water, 3-5% other inert material, and 0-1% carbon (e.g., anthracite, or "sea coal.") The specific formulations are determined by many factors, including the metal that is being poured, as well as the cost and ...

Oil sands reclaim land through Faster Forests

The idea for Faster Forests sprang from a planting consortium that started in 2005. Back then, Alberta-Pacific Forest Industries supplied approximately 80,000 surplus trees to oil sands companies ConocoPhillips, JACOS and Nexen (now CNOOC). As Jeremy Reid, Environmental Coordinator for Canadian Natural Resources Limited recalls, "This ...

Superfund Sites in Reuse in Colorado | US EPA

Sand Creek Industrial. The 300-acre Sand Creek Industrial Superfund site is in Denver and Commerce City, Colorado. An oil refinery, a pesticide manufacturing facility, an herbicide chemical plant and a landfill contributed to contamination of soil and groundwater. EPA added the site to the National Priorities List (NPL) in 1983.

University of Northern Iowa UNI ScholarWorks

The reclamation process used is a combination of mechanical and wet reclamation. The focus was on the production of foundry cold box cores and if using this reclamation process could create a core with a similar quality performance compared to new sand. Research in reclamation could pave the way for a closed loop sand system, where only

Reclaiming Sand, Metal is a Strategy for Reclaiming Costs

For foundries generating five tons/hour of disposal sand, sand reclamation should be considered as a viable cost-saving project. And, for operations generating 10 tons/hour or more disposal sand, the savings or payback may be expected in less than one year. Foundries realize the value of on-site spent-sand and metal recovery Tracking tramp ...
