Greek Alumil’s new investment in aluminum scrap separation equipment
Alumil, one of the largest aluminum extrusion group in Greece, has the main purpose to minimize its carbon footprint. Therefore, the firm invested 2.8 million euros in a new aluminum scrap separation equipment, which has already been installed in the facility.
The daily volume of aluminum scrap alloys that this new equipment can process is 60 tons. The separation process includes mechanical, magnetic, and X-ray technology, which could help Alumil to raise the content of recycled aluminum by 5% as well as save 95% of energy.
The firm targeted to use up to 70% of recycled aluminum scrap on production lines within three years.
