Metal briquettes present several benefits: They streamline storage and transportation by reducing volume, facilitating cost-effective subsequent processing. Additionally, the briquetting of metals enables the retrieval of valuable cooling lubricants, residual oils, and emulsions, which can be reintroduced into the cooling or lubrication system. These metal briquettes, when melted down directly, sink in the melting process, leading to reduced slag formation and burn-off.
