    has grease on it and can no longer be recycled

    You’re thinking of cardboard. They melt Al scraps down at like 1300°c and any organics burn off or are removed as slag. So go ahead and chuck your greasy tinfoil in the recycle bin.

      Check your county recycling. You might be surprised what has changed.
