Zinc Recovery Material
High-grade Zinc Dross produced from hot-dip galvanizing operations. 85–95% zinc content. Consistent quality, lab-verified analysis, available for domestic and international buyers.
Product Overview
Zinc Dross is a zinc-rich by-product generated during hot-dip galvanizing, where small amounts of iron from the steel substrate react with molten zinc to form intermetallic compounds that sink to the bottom of the galvanizing bath. With 85–95% zinc content, Zinc Dross is a high-value secondary zinc material.
Bhatti Chemicals Industry supplies high-grade Zinc Dross with consistent zinc content, making it a reliable feedstock for zinc smelters, refineries, and secondary zinc producers. Full laboratory analysis is available with every batch, and the product is supplied with proper documentation.

Industrial Uses
The primary use of Zinc Dross — processed in secondary zinc smelters to recover high-purity metallic zinc through pyrometallurgical or hydrometallurgical refining methods.
Used as a zinc source in the production of zinc-based alloys for die casting, brass production, and other metallurgical applications where precise zinc composition is required.
Processed into zinc sulfate, zinc chloride, and other chemical compounds used in agriculture, water treatment, and industrial chemical applications.
Re-introduced into galvanizing operations as zinc feedstock after refining, supporting efficient zinc resource utilisation in corrosion-protection coating processes.
Processed into zinc micronutrient products for agricultural use, correcting soil zinc deficiency and improving crop yields in zinc-depleted soils.
A key material in circular economy zinc recycling chains, reducing the need for primary zinc mining by recovering high-purity zinc from production by-products.
