abstract = "With the recently increased use of magnesium alloys, especially in the automotive industry, a large quantity of generated waste, based on magnesium alloys, is expected. Such a waste often contains many impurities such as oil, paint, moisture, non-metallic fractions, oxides, Cu, Fe, etc. In this paper, two different methods for extracting magnesium from a highly contaminated waste are presented: the recycling of magnesium with flux and with the vacuum-distillation process. In addition, we present the process of pre-treating the contaminated magnesium waste that has proved to be a very important step in the recycling process for both economic and environmental reasons. The processing of post-consumer and contaminated magnesium scrap is described with a diagram, providing a sustainable and environmentally friendly procedure for the treatment of such wastes.",
