What Are The Benefits Of Aluminium Recycling?
Undeniably, the most significant benefit of recycling aluminium is that it can be recycled an infinite number of times, making it the ideal metal for meeting the demand in industries and those wanting to preserve the wider environment. Aluminium is wholly recyclable, with all the metal being melted and reformed infinitely without losing material strengths or qualities. Since the production of aluminium in the 19th century, it’s believed that around three-quarters of all material produced is still in use today!
Aluminium recycling is also energy efficient.
Recycling just a tonne of aluminium saves up to nine tons of CO2 emissions that would otherwise be released into the wider environment. Also, recycling aluminium uses considerably less energy than is required to manufacture primary aluminium. Recycling existing aluminium uses only 5% of its power to produce primary aluminium. Shockingly, that’s the greenhouse gas equivalent of removing almost one million vehicles off the road for an entire year!
Recycling aluminium can also help avoid the need to mine new Bauxite ore to produce new aluminium.
Eight billion aluminium cans are sold in the UK annually, containing fizzy drinks, fruit juices, and food cupboard products. If you remember that all eight billion cans could be recycled repeatedly, you can quickly acknowledge how much energy and raw materials can be saved. The aluminium recycling process for a beverage can take two months, from recycled to ready for sale in shops and supermarkets. Each aluminium can be recycled seven or eight times yearly, saving enough energy to manufacture 160 new aluminium cans.
The impressive structural integrity of aluminium
Aluminium is highly suitable for high-end applications regardless of how often it is recycled. For example, it’s possible to recycle aluminium previously used as an aesthetically pleasing façade on a building for use in a vehicle engine without declining quality. At Reclamet, we now recycle thousands of tonnes of aluminium, helping to limit the amount of CO2 entering our atmosphere.
