Specialist Metal Recovery

Augean possesses deep expertise in understanding the chemical and physical interactions of waste materials, enabling us to apply the Waste Hierarchy effectively – prioritising re-use, recycling, recovery, and responsible disposal.

Our approach aligns fully with the principles outlined in the Waste Framework Directive and is recognised as Best Available Techniques (BAT) in the Waste Treatment BREF, notably through the innovative use of one waste stream to treat another, exemplifying substitution principles.

Our infrastructure is designed to maximise resource efficiency and minimise waste. By treating waste efficiently, we transform it into valuable resources that can be reused back into the industry, significantly reducing environmental impacts.

This process is vital for sustainable waste management, helping to conserve finite resources and lower the negative effects of waste on the environment.
