PyroGenesis Completes Seven-System Drosrite™ Deployment at World’s Largest Aluminum Complex

PyroGenesis Inc. has fulfilled its seven-system contract with Radian Oil and Gas Services by making the final four Drosrite™ aluminum dross recovery systems operational at a new purpose-built plant in Saudi Arabia.
The completed deployment includes two 5000 TPY systems and two 10000 TPY systems, with the latter representing the first 10000 TPY units deployed by PyroGenesis worldwide.
The original three 5000 TPY systems, which operated in a temporary facility since April 2022, have been relocated to the new facility to join the four newly installed units.
The combined seven Drosrite™ systems at the site can process up to 45,000 tonnes of aluminum dross annually within the world's largest vertically integrated aluminum production complex.
PyroGenesis' Drosrite™ technology recovers up to 98% of aluminum from dross without using salt, resulting in lower operating costs, a reduced carbon footprint, and the avoidance of hazardous salt cake disposal.
Global aluminum usage reached 100.8 million tonnes in 2024, driving dross generation which is expected to grow at 3–4% annually as aluminum demand rises.
Approximately 30–40% of dross generation currently ends up in landfills, highlighting the economic & environmental benefits of high-recovery processes like Drosrite™.
The systems are located in Saudi Arabia at a facility operated by Radian, a private company focused on energy conservation, efficiency, & CO2 emission reduction.
