Innovative Metallurgical Solutions Limited utilizes a patented pyro-process technology called AMRT that recovers valuable metals from mining and smelting waste streams while converting potentially hazardous waste into inert slag. The process can treat a variety of waste materials from small to medium scale mining and smelting operations, providing an efficient and sustainable solution to extract more value from resources and conduct environmental cleanup. IMS has successfully commercialized this technology through projects like treating red mud waste from alumina production.

Innovative Metallurgical Solutions Limited is an
authorised & licensed operating company utilising
the Advanced Mineral Recovery Technologies
(“AMRT”) patented process.
AMRT has a proprietary technology for treating the
waste streams from mining and smelting
operations whereby the valuable metal content is
recovered while the potentially hazardous waste is
converted to an environmentally-inert slag.

The technology is broadly applicable: virtually all
mining & smelting works creates waste in the form
of dust, fines or slag.
IMS utilising this technology provides a very highefficiency and high yield process ideal for smelting
primary ore, fines and waste streams on a small to
medium scale.
It is ideally suited for environmental and
sustainable development initiatives. It is a “clean
tech” process which can beneficiate smaller
resources at source.

Red Mud Clean Up - EU funded programme.
Utilising AMRT patented process for the clean up of the Alumina waste material –
Red Mud.
A 4 year programme i.e. ENEXAL has been successfully campaigned converting
the waste into saleable pig iron and rock wool.
Currently we have a furnace at ALSA in Greece running production on Red Mud
clean up.
Collaboration consortium includes:Aluminium de Greece (Greece).
Sirmium Steel (Serbia).
D'Appolonia SPA (Italy).
Pegaso Systems SRL (Italy).
National Technical University of Athens, School of Mining and Metallurgical
Engineering, Laboratory of Metallurgy (Athens, Greece).
