When preparing your black mass for analysis, you must obtain a representative sample of your material. By doing so, you can be confident that you will receive accurate results that in turn will reduce errors in the valuation of your commodity. Alfred H Knight provides key sampling and sample preparation services to help you obtain representative samples of your products. By utilising material-specific standardised procedures developed over many years, our expert samplers can adapt to meet the unique nature of your black mass. This helps you get better test results and gives you the data required to understand your materials and their place within the ever-growing market.

When Simpler Recycling is introduced in 2026, councils across England will be expected to conduct weekly food waste collections for most households. In England alone, around a quarter of residual waste results from food waste. Whilst increased collections may help reduce the amount of food waste that ends up in landfills, it could also reduce the volume of general waste collected from homes. For Local Authorities, maximising the diversion of food waste in the scheme will be a priority and understanding the amounts and types of food waste will be crucial in achieving this goal. To determine the impact that weekly food waste collections may have on your local waste streams, you need the support of an expert. Alfred H Knight has a wealth of experience in sampling and analysis and has worked with Local Authorities across the UK, helping clients build an accurate and comprehensive profile of their waste streams. If you’re interested in learning more about Simpler Recycling and how our services can help you prepare for the changes, catch our team on the upcoming CIWM Webinar ‘Reviewing Simpler Recycling for LAs’, taking place on the 10th of July. As experts in waste composition, we’ll be on the panel and available to answer any questions you may have about waste composition.

Thank you to everyone who took part in our poll last week, in which we asked what you thought would be the most significant impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the mining industry over the next decade. We received some interesting feedback from this, with the most popular answer being ‘Enhanced Operations and Efficiency’ with 57% of the votes. It is worth noting that all of the options will likely have a significant impact on the mining industry in some way. However, if they are to be integrated successfully, they will need the backing of data and insights. #mining #artificialintelligence #ai
