Abstract
SMS group is innovating and developing future solutions in the non-ferrous metals sector to enable the circular economy (CE). The recycling of valuable metals is one of the key enablers for the CE. SMS group offers numerous recycling solutions to recovery metals and other valuable substances from metal scraps, electronic wastes, batteries, catalysts, etc., which are based on a sequence of pyro- and/or hydrometallurgical process steps. This paper shares experiences on recently commissioned solutions, for example, Aurus in Russia.
