PPRC supported an investigation for a metal product manufacturer, to determine if briquetting system could achieve cost and environmental savings for them by reusing coolant and getting a higher price for the recovered metal from their swarf. At the time, the interested metal product manufacturer was collecting their swarf and shipping it to a local recycler. The recycler drained the coolant, disposed of it as hazardous waste, and then recycled the residual metal fines. The investigation confirmed potential savings for the company should they install a briquetting press to manage their swarf.
