The capabilities of medium- and high-frequency induction furnaces developed by RÉ company for converting nonferrous-metal wastes into a standard product were discussed. The use of two-frequency electromagnetic fields in refining and casting helps to recycle a wide range of metallic wastes in various states of aggregation. It also improves the chemical composition and homogeneity of the melt. The results show that the equipping the induction refining furnaces with casting modules gives maximum flexibility to obtained shaped castings and also makes them highly cost-effective means of recycling nonferrous-metal wastes and scrap.
