Rotary dross cleaning systems are gaining traction in India’s metal recycling and sand/aggregate production industries. These systems efficiently separate metallic residues from slag or dross, enabling the recovery of valuable metals and the production of high-quality sand/aggregate for construction.
A typical sand/aggregate production line integrates rotary dross cleaners with crushers, screens, and classifiers. Core equipment includes:
1. Rotary Dross Cleaner: Processes 5–20 TPH (tonnes per hour), with a drum diameter of 1.5–3 meters.
2. Jaw Crusher: Primary crushing, capacity 50–500 TPH, feed size up to 1200 mm.
3. VSI Crusher: For shaping sand, output 30–400 TPH.
4. Vibrating Screen: Multi-deck design, screening efficiency >90%.
| Equipment | Key Parameters |
|---|---|
| Rotary Dross Cleaner | 5–20 TPH, 15–30 kW power |
| Jaw Crusher | 50–500 TPH, 75–200 kW |
| VSI Crusher | 30–400 TPH, 90–400 kW |
| Vibrating Screen | 10–300 TPH, 5.5–37 kW |
A project in Maharashtra processed aluminum dross to recover metal and produce construction sand. The line included a rotary cleaner (10 TPH), jaw crusher (200 TPH), and VSI crusher (150 TPH), achieving 95% metal recovery and ISO-compliant sand output.
Q1: What is the lifespan of rotary dross cleaners?
A: Typically 8–12 years with proper maintenance.
Q2: Can the system handle wet slag?
A: Yes, but pre
