All storage and processing of these materials is in-doors, with careful attention to protection of the environment. The following types of materials are recycled: Tin, lead, and precious metal bearing materials Oxides Filter cakes – No F wastes Sludges/slurries Drosses Bag house fume or dust Skimmings Paste, wipes, debris, filters Slags Powders, pulps, sweeps Precipitates Ashes Carbon/charcoal Resins Concentrates Glass—mirrors, CRTs ECS Process   ECS is both a smelter and refiner of tin and tin-lead alloys.  We operate a large, 60 ton rotary furnace, as well as several smaller, special purpose furnaces, and both kettle and electrolytic refining processes.  Process capabilities include: Shredding & Sampling Sample Preparations & Analysis Blending & Drying Rotary Furnace Smelting & Refining Sweat Furnace Kettle Refining Hydrometallurgical Processing Precious Metals Description We process millions of pounds of precious metal bearing materials annually.   Gold, Silver, Palladium, and Platinum are recovered from printed circuit boards, integrated circuits and other components, circuit board trim, router dust, pastes, wipes, sweeps, plated and inlaid metals, fabricated parts, ores and concentrates.   The utmost care is taken to ensure the integrity of materials during processing.   Our process schedules accommodate lots of any size. The following types of material containing precious metals are recycled:   Printed circuit boards Electronic components Manufacturing scrap and residues Telecommunication equipment CRTs and monitors Computer scrap Sweeps, powders, pulps, dust Meltables Slags Burnables Concentrates Catalysts Silver wire Plating wire Carbon Resins Acids and sludges with precious metals Plated parts Test equipment   High-Value Metals A wide variety of residues containing tantalum, indium, nickel, titanium, tungsten, and other high-value metals are processed in various ways to recover the metal value.  Processes for residues containing these, and other high value metals, are developed on a case-by-case basis to remove impurities and produce salable products.  Contact us about recovering the value from your residue. Process Capabilities ECS has broad capability to process precious and high-value metals.  We use several different types and sizes of smelting and refining furnaces, and have installed a number of hydrometallurgical and physical separation processes as well. ECS’ skilled technicians disassemble scrap commercial and military jet engines and engine components into their component high-temperature alloys, at our facility in Terrell, Texas.  These alloys are sold as high-temperature metallic scrap.  Sophisticated testing procedures are used to segregate the individual alloys to maximize their value. Description of Products   ECS produces the flowing types of alloys.  Custom alloys are routinely produced to meet specific customer specifications.
