Solid state processing of scrap metal cuttings. The cuttings are compacted, conveniently at room temperature, and then jacketed in a substantially air tight jacket. Matter, such as graphite, which gives off a reducing gas is also introduced in the jacket which is then heated so that the reducing gas reduces the surface oxides present in the scrap. The jacketed mass is then hot worked, e.g., by rolling to form a homogeneous mass.
