Abstract: Aluminum dross, a byproduct of the aluminum melting process, is a mixture of aluminum, its oxides, the oxides of alloying elements and less frequently halogenides, carbides and nitrides. Dross has some good benefits, especially considering tension strength and depending on further conditioning steps can be very useful further on.

Aluminum dross is generated during melt transfer, metal treatment, and casting process due to the reaction between the hot metal with the atmosphere [1, 2].Hot aluminum metal has high oxygen affinity to form aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3).Due to this exothermic reaction, there will always be a film of dross formed on top of hot metal …
Due to the excellent engineering property, aluminum has become an important material for processing industries. As the demand of aluminum increased, a large amount of waste aluminum dross has been generated during the aluminum smelting process. The aluminum dross contained aluminum nitride and would cause odor while …
