Abstract: Nowadays, most of production industries (also casting industry) strive to implement properly functioning organizational structures, the activities of which must ensure the increased level and quality of manufactured elements while eliminating unnecessary wastefulness - generated during the manufacturing process. The implementation of tools comprising Lean Manufacturing methodology and the application of many qualitative methods make it possible to create properly functioning technical-organizational structure aimed at avoiding defects, or if they occur - to identify them quickly.The article presents the impact of selected production system tools organized according to the principles complied with Lean Manufacturing concept (LM) on the product's quality of the enterprise specializing in casting production.

Abstract: Circular Economy is a current priority of the European Commission's economic policy. In production processes, also in the metallurgical industry, this involves application of the Best Available Techniques (BAT) and support of innovative industrial processes and practices that enable Industrial Symbiosis - waste or by-products from one industry become raw material for another, which is particularly important in the case of critical raw materials.An example of a Metallurgical Industrial Ecosystem is provided by ZGH Bolesław Group, the main producer of Zinc and Lead in Europe.

Abstract: The complexity of metallurgical companies' operations in the 21st century means that the assessment of the social and economic effects of metallurgical production must also refer to the rational development of degraded brownfield sites and attempts to reconstruct their environmental status before the economic period of exploitation. Revitalization is to be understood as the repair of degraded areas through total projects (integrating activities for the local community, space and local economy) territorially focused and coordinated in cooperation with the local community in a planned and integrated way by identifying and implementing revitalization programs.
