<< Subj: Reuse of Stainless Steel Blasting Material

I am working with a facility that has over 100,000 lbs per year of
stainless steel shot from blasting operations that has become a fine
powder. It is 95% stainless steel by weight. Currently they are
stabilizing and landfilling the material. It seems that this would be
usable as a foundry feedstock given its purity, or have other beneficial
reuse. We have spoken to several foundries and have not identified much
interest. Has anyone worked with a similar
material or have any ideas for beneficial reuse? We are also aware of
several alternative blasting techniques.
Thanks!
