DrossZero™ by Hydrova
Pioneering the cutting edge of zero-waste dross recycling.
Hydrova’s Technology
DrossZero™ utilizes Hydrova’s patent-pending innovations in dross valorization and hydrogen production technology, while incorporating the latest advancements in materials science and automation.
Case Study
Enabling California’s largest aluminum producer to recycle black dross with zero waste.
In Hydrova’s DrossZero™ pilot with TST Inc., California’s largest aluminum producer, Hydrova is enabling TST to recycle its black dross with zero waste. Aluminum and salt flux are recovered from the dross for direct reuse in the furnaces from which they came. Oxide products recovered from the dross provide a high-quality source of aluminum oxide to innovative cement producers like CTS Cement, the inventors of Rapid Set® cement. Finally, green hydrogen provides a source of clean fuel to help decarbonize the aluminum production process.

“The process of melting aluminum scrap creates dross and salt cake that is difficult to recycle without having waste end up in a landfill. Hydrova’s technology solves that problem by utilizing 100% of this co-product into valuable products.”
Andrew Stein, CEO of TST Inc.

"Decarbonizing the production of cement is one of the biggest opportunities for reducing our CO2 emissions and further greening of the built environment. Hydrova technology is a big step forward towards the full utilization of raw materials and continuity of the circular materials economy"
Ken Vallens, President and CEO of CTS Cement
