ferromolybdenum producer. First site to commercially convert molybdenite concentrates to technical molybdic oxide. First site to produce pure molybdic oxide by sublimation. Langeloth Metallurgical Company (“LMC”) has a long history of producing high quality metallurgical products. In 1986 LMC began processing a wide range of metal-bearing materials, such as spent catalysts, filter cakes and grindings, as ingredients to make a product without reclamation. The products are sold directly in the steel industry or as a substitute for newly mined metals in a smelter. This activity has become a core business for LMC, which now serves the chemical, food processing, metallurgical and metals finishing industry sectors as a reliable processor of recycled metal-bearing materials. LMC has six multi-hearth furnaces that can operate at various temperatures up to 1400 °F and are equipped with state-of-the-art air pollution control devices. This provides flexibility in processing various metal-bearing materials. All feedstocks report as product, resulting in no waste products. |
