MAHWAH, N.J., April 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Drosrite International LLC, a private waste management technologies company based in New Jersey, USA, (the “Company”, the “Corporation” or “Drosrite International”), is pleased to announce today that, the first three DROSRITE™ dross recovery systems of seven ordered from Radian Oil & Gas Services Company (“Radian” or the “Client”) have officially passed their site acceptance test and are fully operational at the Ma’aden aluminum facility (“Ma’aden” or the “Smelter”).
The final commissioning of these three DROSRITE™ systems has followed a client-specified implementation and operational period, during which the technology was used at full capacity and exhibited exceptional results.
The Company is also pleased to announce that the remaining four systems have already been manufactured and have successfully passed factory acceptance testing. Drosrite International is currently awaiting final shipment to the Smelter’s facility.
“The recent site acceptance testing, and full commissioning represents a significant milestone for DROSRITE™ technology. After years of use by downstream aluminum producers, this is the first implementation of DROSRITE™ at a major primary aluminum smelter,” said Mr. Alex Pascali, President of Drosrite International. “The fact that two such reputable and demanding companies, Radian and Ma’aden, the end-user facility of significant size and scope, have invested in the DROSRITE™ system clearly shows the strength of this technology.”
“It is very important to note that this is, as far as we know, among the first salt-free dross recovery systems implemented in a primary smelter at scale,” added Mr. Pascali. “The absence of salt eliminates hazardous salt cakes that are commonly produced by other legacy technologies, such as rotary salt furnaces, and would have to be stored or landfilled. The salt-free DROSRITE™ technology also reduces the risk of salt contamination within the plant, as well as significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the commissioning of these systems generates recurring revenue, from ongoing maintenance and spare parts. With these first three systems now fully operational, we look forward to installing the remaining four DROSRITE™ systems for these clients.”
