AFS-FIRST
In an effort to further promote beneficial reuse of sand in the metalcasting industry, AFS is announcing a new consortium with Foundry Industry Recycling Starts Today (FIRST). The new organization, which is now called AFS-FIRST, is currently developing a plan to aid the metalcasting industry in recycling 50% of sand used in its facilities by 2015.
Beyond that goal, other organizational purposes include:
- promotion of the reduction, reuse and recycling of metalcasting industry by-products through education, research and information dissemination;
- development of educational partnerships with governmental agencies, universities, industry associations and other corporations;
- conducting and sponsoring research in cooperation with governmental agencies, universities, industry associations and other corporations.
