Metal Recycling MAKES A REAL DIFFERENCE
ALUMINIUM
- Recycling aluminum reduces the energy needed to produce new aluminum by 95%. The energy saved is equal to the amount of electricity the average home will use over 10 years.
- Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a 100-watt bulb for 20 hours, a computer for 3 hours, or a TV for 2 hours.
- Americans throw away enough aluminum every month to rebuild our entire commercial air fleet.
- Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours or saves the equivalent of half a gallon of gasoline.
- A used aluminum can is recycled and back in use as a new can in as little as 60 days.
- Used aluminum cans are the most recycled item in the U.S. Other types of aluminum, such as siding, gutters, car components, storm window frames and lawn furniture can also be recycled.
- There is no limit to the amount of times aluminum can be recycled.
STEEL & TIN
- Recycling steel saves enough energy to power about 18 million homes a year.
- Every day Americans use enough steel to construct a pipe running from Los Angeles to New York...and back.
- If we recycled one-tenth of the tin cans we throw away, we’d be saving about 3.2 billion cans.
- A steel mill using recycled scrap reduces water pollution, air pollution, and mining waste by about 70%.
- Recycling steel and tin cans saves 74% of the energy used to make them from virgin materials.
ELECTRONICS
- One metric ton of electronic scrap from personal computers has more gold than 17 metric tons of gold ore.
- In 1998 the amount of gold recovered from electronic scrap in the U.S. was equivalent to more than 2 million metric tons of gold ore & waste.
