What it does, and why it matters

DrossLoop treats aluminium black dross, one of the smelting industry's most stubborn hazardous wastes, entirely by chemistry: no furnace, no landfill. Dross is received, conditioned, and converted into saleable mineral products, recovered salts, and clean water. What enters the gate as a disposal liability leaves as product margin, ≈$237–250 net per tonne at reference scale*.
