Bel Air Finishing offers a comprehensive precious metal refining service tailored to meet the unique needs of your business. This service ensures that precious metal-bearing materials are processed with precision, transparency, and efficiency. From thermal reduction to chemical processing, it delivers exceptional value for recycling programs by recovering maximum precious metal content.

We use advanced techniques such as Thermal Reduction to prepare materials for further refining through processes like induction melting, sweeps processing, or chemical digestion. Materials such as semiconductor tooling, electroplated substrates, and cyanide or acid-based solutions are chemically processed to recover valuable metals. Every step is managed with care, from transport and inspection to refining and settlement.

What to Expect:

• Customized Recycling Plans: Work with a dedicated representative to determine the most effective refining solutions for your materials.
• Secure Material Transport: Logistics support ensures seamless freight arrangements and accurate documentation upon arrival.
• State-of-the-Art Refining: Processes include thermal reduction, milling, chemical digestion, and sampling, ensuring uniform materials ready for analysis.
• Precise Laboratory Analysis: In-house testing determines the total precious metal content using industry-standard techniques like fire assay, XRF, and wet chemical analysis.
• Transparent Settlements: Access detailed reports of your materials’ precious metal content, with flexible settlement options including checks, wire transfers, or physical metal returns.

Typical Applications:

• Recycling catalytic converters
• Recycling mother boards/circuit
• Strip stock blanking scrap
• Recycling sludge waste

Precious Metals We Can Refine:

From start to finish, this service combines expertise, advanced refining methods, and unparalleled transparency, helping you recover more value from your precious metal materials.

Aquasafe is a fast, efficient, economical and easy to use wastewater treatment technology for a variety of industrial wastewaters. It provides a dense, non leachable sludge and clear water usually suitable for recycling or discharge.

What works and what does not work:
Aqua Safe’s unique chemistry provides a rapid and efficient encapsulation and separation in a wide spectrum of wastewaters. In most cases, it is only necessary to indentify the appropriate blend, dosage and equipment, perhaps with simple pre­treatment chemistry. However, Aqua Safe will not remove certain soluble organic chemicals, sugars, starches or alcohols (including glycols.)

How it Works:
Aqua Safe causes a series of chemical and physical reactions which result in contaminants being encapsulated in a developing floc, which then sinks to the bottom of the vessel.

The Aqua Safe wastewater treatment results in a mass that both encapsulates and removes contaminants. The clarified liquid is decanted and filtered, sludge is then filtered and collected. Drying can be accomplished with any appropriate dewatering technology. Clarified water, coolant or cleaner is recycled, dried sludge is sent to a landfill according to local regulations.
