melting furnaces for scrap metal
They refer to it as the "so-called" calo-forno, but I fail to see who else calls it that. Can't find it anywhere, for love nor money. We are talking about the classification of scrap metal.
Alle caratteristiche geometriche del rottame si integrano due caratteristiche di purezza, quest’ultima avendo effetto sul cosiddetto “calo-forno”.
Dal punto di vista dimensionale il rottame è suddivisibile in quattro categorie ciascuna di esse utile per bilanciare le ceste con cui vengono alimentati i forni fusori.

melt loss
For the purposes of this article, melt loss is defined as how much metal is lost during the melting process due to oxidation of the aluminum.

È opportuno specificare che nel passaggio dallo stato solido a quello liquido i materiali subiscono un calo di fusione tra il 20 ed il 25% a seconda della quantità dello stato fisico e delle caratteristiche chimiche.

The only specific reference I can find online is a pdf. Here's a link to the PDF: https://tinyurl.com/y8h2opll
"scaglia" is swarf (of that I'm sure because in my line of business, it's a common term)

At the link, note that it says "diminuzione del calo forno (quantità di scaglia prodotta"

the purity of the scrap, as the text says, as an effect on the swarf. It says nothing about melting the metal. So what's your suggested answer?
