Small ferrous and pulverous waste are resulted from the industry and can be processed through agglomeration, briquetting or pelleting based on the granulometric features of the waste. For the current paper, the agglomeration/briquetting method has been used and it has been made for waste resulting from the iron production industry. The laboratory experiments are pressed, together with the qualitative and quantitative tests of the experimental agglomerate/briquette. The achievement of by-products can be used as raw material in the making cast iron or steel and it permits an efficient optimizing of resources in the context of durable development, also bringing along economical and ecological advantages.
