THEIMPORTANCE OF METAL RECYCLING

Metals are materials of long durability, mechanical resistance and ease of molding, generally are chemical elements capable of conducting electricity and heat.

The rods can be used in the construction of lightened slabs of light shorts, beams, girders, dalas, castles, solid slabs of short shorts, castles, prefabricated elements, concrete poles, additional steel for joists, stirrups, horizontal reinforcement in walls Masonry (ladder type) and concrete pipe.
Different types of metals:
• Brass
• Aluminum
• Iron
• Bronze
• Galvanized metal
• Steel
• Copper

Recycling of metal is important as it is a versatile material that is used in the manufacture of a wide range of products including automobiles, appliances, railways, etc.
Steel and iron, like the rest of the metals, can be recycled once their initial use has come to a near end number of times, without asking for quality, and whatever their origin.

The main sources of iron and steel scrap come from the end use of products (appliances, containers, aerosols, machines, automobiles, etc.). They are easily identifiable in waste through magnetic separation.

Recycling of non-ferrous metals
Once the used aluminum reaches the manager, it is classified and prepared, separating it from the remains of metals and materials by various manual methods, magnetic separation or eddy current separators.
Subsequently, the scrap obtained is usually pressed and packaged to facilitate its transport, either to a scrap wholesaler or directly to the smelter for the production of secondary aluminum.

Advantage
A great advantage of recycling metals are their benefits to the environment of our planet.
Recycling the metal could drastically reduce the use of natural resources.

Disadvantages
Aluminum, steel and other metals must be manually separated from other recyclable materials such as plastic or paper.
As aluminum in particular tends to degrade after each reuse cycle, so products that use recycled metals may vary in quality, but most metals never reach a point where they are no longer recyclable.
