Development of Technology for the Complex Processing of Man-Made Waste Based on Innovative Metallurgical Processes

In the context of modern industrial development, one of the urgent tasks is the processing of man-made waste generated during the production process. Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combine JSC (Almalyk MMC) faces this problem, producing more than 30 million tons of waste annually. This waste contains valuable components such as iron, silicon and precious metals, but today the technologies for their processing are either absent or ineffective [1, p.19]. This study is aimed at developing a comprehensive waste processing technology that will not only extract valuable resources, but also solve important environmental problems. The complexity of processing man-made waste is due to their diverse chemical composition and high level of pollution. Waste from the beneficiation plants of Almalyk MMC JSC contains 30-35% of iron compounds, 25-30% silicon, 0.2 g / t gold and 1 g / t silver. Of course, the efficiency of extracting these components can significantly affect the economy of the enterprise and the ecosystem of the region [2, p.23]. At present, there is a need for innovative technologies that could ensure the efficient extraction of essential components from waste.
