Scrap metal recycling is a process that aims at diminishing the amount of scrap metal that is disposed of as solid waste. Disposing of this scrap metal in regular trash is leading to concerns about water pollution and soil contamination.Vendors in this industry are involved in the assortment, processing, and recycling of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The typical metal recycling processes include sorting and shredding of scrap, which is later sold to metal smelters for further metal recovery.
