Phoenix Services is dedicated to helping metals producers minimize the impact their production processes have on the environment. For example, we employ state-of-the–art processing plants to reduce any environmental impact while providing for the maximum recovery of metal produced to your specification. Phoenix Services also endeavors to provide ways to reduce, re-use, recycle or market all by-products generated by your processes.

We custom design each operation to assure for maximum efficiency with minimum environmental impact. Prior to start-up, an in-depth study determines the best operating design and plan for our customer, whether they operate as an integrated, specialty or mini-mill producer. Environment, safety, operational and engineering best practice are all coordinated at each operating site for overall efficiency and to assure we work with you as a good business partner.

Operations are only part of the environmental story. Slag sales also impact the environment in unique ways. With Phoenix Service’s skilled staff in slag sales, steel slag is sold to many applications that enhance the local plant and animal environment. Steel Slag can be used to remediate waste water by removing pollutants such as phosphorus from water through a filtering process. Steel slag will also remediate acid mine discharge simply by causing heavy metals to drop from solution in local streams where water seeps from abandoned mines. Phoenix has patented a unique use of BOF steel slag blended with harbor dredge material to make embankment fill for DOT and commercial applications. It is Phoenix Services talented sales force that can identify these unique opportunities for slag sales thereby ensuring slag is sold and does not accumulate on the steel mill property.
