Metal Recycling: a simple step towards a Cleaner Environment
Iron products, such as metal cans, structures or industrial scrap, can become a significant source of waste if not properly recycled. Unreused iron can persist in the environment and contribute to soil and water pollution.
Benefits of Iron Recycling
- Reducing pollution: Iron recycling limits the amount of scrap metal going into nature, protecting soil, water and ecosystems.
- Conserving natural resources: Recycled iron can be reused over and over again, reducing the need to mine natural ores.
- Energy efficiency: Making products from recycled iron consumes much less energy than producing from raw ore, saving resources and reducing emissions.
Stages of Iron Packaging Recycling
- Collection: Iron waste, including metal packaging, is collected through municipal recycling programs, specialized centres or collection points.
- Sorting: Materials are graded to separate iron from other metals and impurities, preparing them for processing.
- Cleaning: Scrap metal is cleaned to remove dirt, food residues or other contaminants.
- Shredding and compression: Iron and packaging is cut or pressed into bales to facilitate transportation and further processing.
- Melting and transformation: The materials are melted in special furnaces and turned into ingots, bars or other recycled metal products ready for reuse.
