The process for agglomerating and passivating the pulverulent used
material and/or the pulverulent fines resulting from the production of
organohalosilanes, comprises the mixing of this used material and/or
fines with a binder chosen from aluminum silicates and the production of
a solid agglomerated product by compression in a press, such as a roll
type briquette machine. The invention also relates to the agglomerated
product thus obtained and to its use in the recovery of certain metals,
such as silicon and copper.
