Foundry Baghouse Waste Treatment

Foundry Waste Stabilization with Bantox®

Bantox® is added to foundry baghouse waste to stabilize leachable heavy metals before the collected dust and waste material move through handling, testing, and disposal.

The calcium silicate formulation supports foundry waste stabilization through pH adjustment, chemical reactions, and encapsulation.

Foundry Baghouse Application

Stabilizing Heavy Metals in Foundry Baghouse Waste

Foundry baghouse systems collect dust and waste material generated during foundry operations. When that waste contains leachable heavy metals, Bantox® can be added at an optimal point in the process to support stabilization before the material is handled or disposed.

Bantox® is a proprietary formulation of calcium silicates. It has served as our base chemical platform, allowing us to develop multiple product lines and patents for industrial waste stabilization across a wide range of industries.

Baghouse Waste Treatment

Bantox® can be introduced into the foundry baghouse waste stream to support consistent heavy metal stabilization.

Leachable Metal Control

The treatment chemistry helps stabilize heavy metals that may otherwise affect waste testing and disposal requirements.

Metered Process Integration

Bantox® is typically applied through a metering device or dispenser for accurate delivery into the foundry waste stream.

Foundry Waste Treatment Technology

Stabilization for Lead and Difficult Foundry Waste Streams

Bantox® meets the definition of the US EPA’s Best Demonstrated Available Technology, or BDAT, for the industrial waste stabilization of lead wastes.

Other chemical enhancements can be added to treat difficult industrial waste streams or foundry wastes containing chromium, selenium, and arsenic.

Proven Foundry Waste Performance

More Than 1,000,000 Tons of Hazardous Waste Stabilized

Bantox® has successfully stabilized more than 1,000,000 tons of hazardous waste in the ferrous and non-ferrous industries.

These applications include foundry, smelter, and scrap processing operations. Lead and cadmium tend to be hazardous elements of concern in these waste streams.

Bantox® can also stabilize waste containing chromium, selenium, and arsenic.

Baghouse Process Integration

Adding Bantox® to the Foundry Baghouse Waste Stream

Bantox® is added at an optimal location in the foundry process so the treatment chemistry can be incorporated into the collected baghouse waste.

Bantox® is typically applied through a metering device or dispenser that supports consistent and accurate delivery into the waste stream.

Adding Bantox® to the process at an optimal location can eliminate the need for a regulatory treatment permit and the record keeping, reporting, and training typically required to operate a hazardous waste treatment operation.

Optimal Addition Point

Bantox® is added at an appropriate location in the foundry baghouse waste handling process.

Metered Delivery

A metering device or dispenser provides consistent and accurate delivery into the foundry waste stream.

Integrated Treatment

The chemistry is incorporated directly into the baghouse waste treatment process before downstream handling and disposal.
