Recycling is very important for the sustainable development of resources It allows to be saved and waste reduction.
aluminum used can be recycled indefinitely with no loss of quality.
Only 5 percent of the energy required to produce primary aluminum is necessary to reflow the aluminum for new uses.
Emissions are reduced and changes in the landscape due to mining and refining are avoided.
Compared to the production of new aluminum, recycling of post-consumer aluminum as aluminum cans saves a lot of energy and CO2.
The global aluminum stock is used as a resource bank About 75 percent aluminum produced is still in use, and some of it has been through numerous recycling loops.
With the energy required to make aluminum for a new box, we can make enough for 20 recycled Thus, aluminum more time gets reused, more energy efficient it becomes.
Many aluminum products have a long life, such as in cars or buildings, and because of this recycled aluminum can provide 20-25 of the current demand aluminum The rest must be produced from the primary aluminum.
The recycling industry plays an important role aluminum lifecycle The amount of recycled metal increases, and recyclers have new and better ways to reduce emissions from smelting.
Annual output of metal and old exchanged quadrupled from 5 to 20 million tonnes.
first annual processing metal production increased from 15 to 44 million tonnes.
Refiners, with equipment which enables them to produce alloys from customer specifications.
Remelters, which mainly products of the same type as their sources such as beverage cans used in new boxes.
The recycling industry also involves collectors, dismantlers, metal merchants and scrap processing, dealing with collection and treatment of waste.
Europe and North America has a recycling industry economically strong and technically advanced aluminum, generated in the last 70 years, Japan has stopped production of domestic primary aluminum passes aluminum recycling in the years 1980 China, India and Russia began to increase their recycling activities.
In many countries, the authorities encourage more recycling Hydro Aluminum has also established strategic objectives to increase our production of recycled metal.
In the future, there will be more post-consumer scrap returned to the recycling industry, and we must be prepared.
Hydro is part of an ongoing project with the Norwegian University of Technology and Science and SINTEF, which focuses on.
How to maintain the high quality expected with most recycled metal in products.
How to recover energy from organic coating materials.
How to avoid harmful emissions and better throughout the production cycle.
How to develop new alloys that are easier to recycle.
Airplanes, automobiles, bicycles, boats, computers, household appliances, son and boxes are all sources for recycling.
At the end of their useful life, the recycled product can be the same as the original product, as can box.
But usually a completely different product is made from recycling, as a car wheel which is recycled in a gearbox.
About 25 of the aluminum produced annually is made to the transport sector.
From 1990-2012, the aluminum used in Europe for cars has increased from 50 to 140 kilograms.
By 2020, this amount may go to 160 kg or 180 kg if even small cars follow the same development as the most expensive cars.
Aluminum parts, such as wheels and cylinder heads are removed.
aluminum alloy mixed waste as it is then usually used to make casting alloys for engines and gearboxes.
In Europe, 95 of the aluminum scrap cars are currently recycled.
Each year about 13 million tons of aluminum is used in construction as we speak, 220 million tons of aluminum is currently used in buildings worldwide.
After the demolition of a building, aluminum unlike other building materials can be recycled in a way that is economically and environmentally sustainable In 2004, a study found that the recovery rate for aluminum in European buildings are between 92 and 98.
There are basically two different types of packaging.
Food and Drink, aerosol cans and menu trays, also called rigid packaging and semi-rigid.
The flexible package; where an aluminum foil is laminated as a barrier material to plastics or cardboard.
Aluminum beverage cans are the largest part of the rigid and semi-rigid packaging globally thanks to techniques developed, it is possible to recycle old waste ingots that can manufacture forged products such as can stock scrap like -ci has a high aluminum content and also a high market value.
flexible packaging waste has a low aluminum content, because the package is very thin and often laminated with paper and plastic.
Aluminum can still be extracted from stratified by special techniques.
How much packaging material that is collected in each country depends on many things, government initiatives, deposit systems, the costs of recycling and even advertising.
In Europe, 30-90 boxes are collected; the average number of European countries is 70 for all rigid packaging in place, the European recycling rate is 50.
Some authorities and environmental organizations want to have green labels on products that contain a lot of recycled materials Because the availability of aluminum scrap is limited, labels like this could lead to discrimination of aluminum compared to other material or in other words; to increase the recycled content in an aluminum product, we should reduce the recycled content in another product.
high value of the aluminum market means that almost all waste will still be used for recycling, instead of being wasted or stored.
Hydro is a great remelter aluminum, with nearly 30 installations worldwide reflow process waste at a time or from our own production and other companies.
To grow faster than the recycling market and to take a leading position also in the recycle part of the value of aluminum chain.
To get 1 million tons of contaminated and post-consumer waste each year by 2020.
Develop recycling plants that serve the internal and external customers with metal products.
To achieve our goals, we first need to exploit our current capacity next step is to invest in the recycling process for waste volumes in our factories and our partner factories.
Recycling a Japanese car, recycling, million tons of aluminum recycling industry, the high value of the market.
