Our specialisation

The recycling of Molybdenum and/or Nickel grindings, powders, cakes, dust, sweeps, basically any shape or form that we can use for our recycling process. Both in metallic and oxide form. Focussing on Molybdenum and Nickel but also eager to receive other metals like Vanadium, Tungsten, Cobalt, Copper and Zinc.

Become part of the best solution!

We are specialized in recycling Nickel and Molybdenum waste streams originated from thermal/plasma spraying, plasma welding, metal casting and forging, stainless steel 304/316 and electroplating industry.

From waste

From waste
to product

We are passionate about our product: We enable the production of green steel by recycling Molybdenum bearing waste streams and spent catalysts. We transform metal containing waste streams into a first class FeMoNi alloy, so (stainless)steel manufacturers can save on natural resources and lower their CO₂-footprint. Read all about it below:

What’s FeMoNi?

FeMoNi is an alloy from a fully recycled background. Our alloy contains Iron (Fe), Molybdenum (Mo) and Nickel (Ni) which makes it an ideal additive for producers of Stainless-steel grades like 316, 316L, 321 and 329 (Duplex and Super Duplex). The waste materials we recycle to create our FeMoNi alloy come from the (petro) chemical industry and surface treatment industries. Our alloy is fully REACH registrated for our customers on the European market.

Turning scrap into steel

Firstly, waste materials are collected from the disposers of spent catalyst and metal containing waste streams. Most of the spent catalysts that we collect are coming from oil refineries or chemical plants. After being collected, we recycle these spent materials via thermal treatment by calcining (Phosphor and Sulphur removal) and melting it afterward to an alloy. The metals Molybdenum and Nickel are being recovered in this process. These are also important ingredients for stainless steel.

We recycle these metals into a variety of high-quality and sustainable alloys. We offer these ‘new’ secondary materials which contain a combination of elements Fe, Mo and Ni directly to end user (Stainless-steel producers), who are using them to replace materials from mining and consume less energy in their production process by using our combination alloy.

Why choose us?

Because we recycle in the most sustainable way possible, leading to the lowest carbon footprint in the industry. Sustainability is our keyword, not only in recycling, but also in our partnerships. We take care of everything for you. From logistics to compliance and recycling. Let us handle it.

Our vision: no more waste

Generally, these used materials are seen as waste, but at Moxba, we see the potential of these used materials to convert them to first class alloys. Our goal is to recycle as much metal waste as possible into usable material. With 50 years of experience in this business, we know how to do that. And this way, we make sure there is more green steel produced.

We are your reliable partner in sustainable metal recycling!
