Jake Niedling gives a safety presentation at the aluminum melting conference in October.
At the recent AFS Aluminum Melting Confer-
ence, Brian Cochran of Brian P Cochran & Associates, Wabash, Ind., presented “Te Hazards of and Regula- tions for Handling Aluminum Dross,” which highlighted aluminum dross regulations that are often overlooked in metalcasting facilities. Cochran also emphasized that although dross is
dangerous when wet, it is a recyclable byproduct and not hazardous waste. He spelled out how to store and register the dross, fill out the shipping papers, package, mark, placard and load the dross, and train employees. Te sold-out conference brought together more than 100
metalcasters to focus on the critical issues related to melting aluminum alloys on Oct. 10-12 in Dayton, Ohio.
