Industrial Scrap Metal Recycling: Top Industries Producing Scrap Metal

Industrial scrap metal recycling can positively affect businesses. Here’s how.

All metals have value, and that’s particularly true for scrap metal – which is far too often treated as “junk” to be disposed of. Far too many consumers and businesses don’t realize that metals can be easily recycled without losing value.

They might be surprised to learn just how many metals are commonly recycled today, and how valuable they are to manufacturers, including aluminum, steel and copper.

The global recycled metal market has expanded considerably in the past few decades, and industrial scrap recycling has emerged as a key component for major businesses looking to hold down costs by using recycled metals.

Today, there are a lot of industries that tend to produce scrap metal, from auto manufacturers to aluminum siding to ship and airplane building. And as scrap gets generated, it’s become more important than ever to raise our recycling rates for these used metals, in part to assist industries like steelmaking that are highly dependent on recycled scrap to maintain high and cost-effective production levels.

If you’re interested in becoming a scrapper who collects and sells metals, it’s important to know where scrap steel, aluminum and copper are easy to come by.

You might be surprised at how many options you have.

Scrap material can come from:

Old buildings

Bridges

Automobiles

Airplanes

Appliances

Home furnishings

Construction sites

And a lot of businesses in your local Yellow Pages.

Global Sustainability with Scrap Metal: How Businesses Can Help Meet Global Sustainability Goals

Globals sustainability with scrap metal starts simply. It starts with your car.

What does your car have to do with energy and sustainability? A lot actually.

The car you drive today will inevitably end up in either one of two places, a landfill or recycling facility.

And you want it to end up in the latter, not the former. You want it to be recycled.

Did you know that recycling one car can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 8,811 pounds of carbon dioxide?

Did you know that 80 percent of a car is recyclable?

Did you know that the car recycling industry saves about 85 million barrels of oil annually?

It’s easy to see from those numbers that the scrap metal of a car is essential in the reduction of greenhouse gasses and the preservation of our natural resources.

It’s important to recycle scrap metal, it’s that simple.

Think of it this way: when people take their scrap metal and opt to recycle it rather than throw it out, that enables new products to be made from what would otherwise be considered “junk.”

In 2017, for example, the U.S. made most of its steel and aluminum by recycling scrap metal. In other words, new products that consumers or businesses are purchasing today have come from what’s being discarded from demolished buildings, old cars and used cans.

In fact, the U.S. made about 82 million metric tons of steel in 2017, with more than 68 percent of it being made from scrap metal.

That’s why the United Nations has joined with so many environmental groups in promoting the recycling of scrap metal and e-waste as a tool for sustainability.

The concept is simple, logical and sensible: rather than contributing to the ecological disaster of allowing landfills to become overloaded with materials containing toxins, we recycle and effectively re-use what we already have but no longer want or need.

Expect the advocates of sustainability to continue promoting recycling this year, and to keep educating the public about why it’s so important. https://glescrap.com/global-sustainability-with-scrap-metal

Myths About Recycling: Is Recycling a Waste of Time?  

There’s been a debate raging for a number of years: is there a benefit to recycling? Some consumers are firmly committed to the concept and see obvious benefits, while others have excuses for why they don’t bother. Here are the myths about recycling.

There’s been a major push in recent years to increase recycling rates, particularly for items like scrap metal and used electronics. Even the United Nations has urged a stronger and more vigorous effort to recycle materials that contain toxins and pose significant environmental hazards when put into landfills.

And that’s one of the major concerns about tossing scrap metal into the trash, and why there’s a concerted effort to increase recycling rates, which remain far too low.

And one way to help increase the amount of scrap metal recycling is to spread the word about the persistent, stubborn myths about recycling – and there are many myths out there.

In fact, some of those myths may still be discouraging people from recycling items like unwanted scrap metal – or giving them a handy excuse for why they don’t bother with recycling at all.

Understanding what those myths are is key to not only enlightening people about the benefits of recycling but getting our recycling rates to increase. https://glescrap.com/blog/myths-about-recycling-is-recycling-a-waste-of-time/

Discovery of New Seafloor Metals Prompts Problematic Deep Sea Mining Conquest

When we think of the bottom of the ocean, we submerge ourselves in total darkness and surround ourselves with thoughts of bioluminescent marine creatures, hydrothermal vents, and the magnificent trenches.

But, just when we thought our oceans couldn’t become even more mysterious, scientists and researchers have discovered something even more fascinating: expansive deposits of rare earth minerals.

Thousands upon thousands of rich mineral fields full of polymetallic balls, known as manganese nodules, dot the ocean floor. This revolutionary discovery has led to a new kind of space race among countries around the world: deep sea mining.

So, why are manganese nodules so valuable? And what are the possible negative implications of mining at 8,000-12,000 feet under the water’s surface?

Keep reading to learn why these operations raise major concerns for marine biologists and discover how YOU can help protect our oceans.
