Recycling of Waste Moulding Sands with New Binders

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research which is part of studies carried out under the project POIG.01.01.02-00-015/09 “Advanced Materials and Technologies”, one of the aims of which is to introduce new, environment-friendly, inorganic binders to the production of castings from non-ferrous metals. The paper presents the results of research on the management of waste moulding sands prepared according to the new technology, including their multiple reclamation and management of post-reclamation waste. Studies of multiple reclamation are a continuation of the preliminary research described earlier. The programme of the studies described in this paper also included validation of the results under industrial conditions. © 2013, Versita. All rights reserved.
