In a bid to address the energy-intensive nature of primary aluminum production, this study explores the solid-state recycling of aluminum alloy 6082 chips through direct hot extrusion. Compacted at room temperature, chips were extruded at temperatures (350, 425, and 500 °C) and reduction ratios (6,...
