Ferrous metal recycling to gain maximum traction during the forecast period

Ferrous metals are metals with iron and magnetic properties. Iron and steel scrap are some of the most widely recycled ferrous metals in the world. This scrap comes from end-of-life products and scrap generated through manufacturing processes. The use of scrap in steel production has formed an integral part of the steel making industry. According to the Bureau of International Recycling, 40% of the steel production is made from scrap. One ton of recycled steel saves 642 Kwh of energy, 1.8 barrels of oil, 10.9 million Btus of energy, and 4 cubic yards of landfill space.” Apart from these advantages, recycling ferrous and non-ferrous metals enables the efficient use of earth’s natural resources.
