Nickel based high temperature alloys are premium materials composed of a nickel matrix alloyed with elements such as chromium, cobalt, and tantalum.
They exhibit outstanding high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and creep resistance, making them critical materials for manufacturing hot-end components like turbine blades and turbine disks in aircraft engines.
High-temperature alloys possess extremely high recycling value, being rich in strategic metals like nickel, cobalt, and tantalum. Recycling significantly conserves energy (40%-90%), reduces production costs, and safeguards resource security.
The core recycling technology lies in vacuum melting. Scrap undergoes rigorous sorting and coating removal pretreatment, followed by refining primarily using VIM or EBCHR. These techniques effectively remove impurities, precisely recover valuable elements, and ultimately cast high-quality precious metal alloy ingots for reuse, achieving resource circulation.
