Challenge, however, exists to optimize the recycling process. In this work, size of recycled cans, flux type, and recycling temperature were investigated to achieve higher recycling and Al yield. After various flux compositions were attempted to increase the recycling and Aluminium yield, the most suitable flux material was a mixture of chloride, fluoride, and SO<sub>4<\/sub>.
