Refining

At Pegasus, we offer refining of precious metals. Precious metals like Gold, silver, platinum and palladium are refined as by-products of the waste stream. Most of the electronics waste products or IT Assets like production scrap, off-spec parts and components, prototypes, and obsolete inventories are a mine for finding precious metals. At Pegasus, it's our job to ensure refining is done to it's full potential.

Other than precious metals, refining services also help in Mixed Metals Refining, Residue Fine Metal Refining, Mixed Plastics Refining. Refining is very important process of recycling as it enhances the scope to create something new from the recycled waste.

Maximize value recovery from refining service

• Process material to facilitate handling and sampling
• Determine precious metal content using in-house world-class assay laboratory
• Accurate precious metal calculations as a result of top notch laboratory
• Prepare material for final processing

 

Steps & Benefits of Refining

CHOPPING

Chopping helps in reducing the size of electronics products and components. Reduced size helps in collecting sample to determine material value.

ROASTING

Products which contains organics, including sludges, residues and burnables are treated in roasting process. This process is executed in high capacity natural gas-fired ovens to process large volumes of materials. Pegasus have high end ovens with afterburners and a baghouse for pollution control this also increases oven efficiency. Roasting is a process to burn off impurities. At the end of the process roasting produces dry material suitable for sampling or further processing.

MILLING

Under milling processes dry materials are crushed in a rotary dampers. milling process of refining enables us to take samples for testing presence of precious metals.

CHEMICAL PROCESSING

This process is suitable for extracting precious metals from the ewaste. Plated parts of the waste stream are treated with chemicals to recover metal positions from the parts.

MELTING

Our melting process is employed with natural gas fired furnaces to produce precious metal bullion.
