Recycling & recovery
Aerospace revert solutions
Services
A revert route that protects both the alloy and the part record.
- 01
Engine teardown
End-of-life engines are dismantled and separated into their constituent alloy groups so that high-value superalloy content is recovered rather than lost to mixed scrap.
- 02
Onsite destruction
Life-limited parts and rotating components are destroyed on site, giving a verifiable end to the part's service life before the material enters the recycling stream.
- 03
Sorting and grading
All superalloys are sorted and graded so that reverts return to the melt shop as a known, certified specification rather than an unidentified blend.
- 04
Precious metal recovery
Gold, platinum and rhenium are recovered from coatings and components alongside the base alloy content.
Precious metal recovery
Aerospace components carry more than their base alloy. Coatings and specialist assemblies contain metals worth recovering in their own right, and they are routinely lost when parts are treated as bulk scrap.
- Gold
- Platinum
- Rhenium
Recovered superalloy returns to the melt as either air-melt or vacuum grade product, sorted and graded so it re-enters production as a known specification. Complex nickel alloys
