The recycling process is a procedure that supports environmental sustainability while helping businesses achieve economic gains. Various types of scrap, such as solid, turning shavings, and ingots, which are commonly used in various industrial sectors, can be reintegrated into the industry through high-quality recycling processes. This allows companies engaged in industrial production to minimize their economic expenses while also supporting environmental sustainability.
Hursan Stainless Steel is one of Turkey’s leading scrap trading companies. The company professionally handles the buying and selling of scrap types, providing significant contributions to businesses in various industrial sectors.
What Are the Types of Scrap?
Scrap types are various waste materials that are collected and processed for recycling purposes. These materials are properly separated and processed to be reused. Different scrap types processed in the recycling process hold critical importance in the metal industry. Here are the commonly used types of scrap:
- Solid Scrap
Solid scrap is generally the metal parts that result from metal cutting and shaping processes in industrial production. It typically consists of high-quality metals discarded after use, which can be metal, plastic, or other solid materials. This type of scrap is formed and can be recycled through a process to be reused in different sectors. Solid scrap is turned into reusable materials after recycling. This process plays a significant role in ensuring environmental sustainability.
- Turning Shavings (Lathe Shavings)
Turning shavings, or lathe shavings, as the name implies, are waste materials obtained from metal or other hard materials processed on lathe machines. These shavings are commonly encountered in the metalworking industry and are produced during the shaping of a workpiece. Typically, part of the material is cut away during the turning process, and the removed material is called shavings. These fine metal particles can be melted down and made reusable through appropriate recycling methods. Aluminum, copper, and stainless steel shavings have a high recycling value.
- Ingot
An ingot is a solid metal piece, generally created by melting metal and pouring it into molds to give it shape, typically in a rectangular or cylindrical form. Ingots are obtained in either pure or alloyed form and are suitable for further processing or reshaping. This form of metal is considered an intermediate product used for further processing or re-melting to create other products. Ingot recycling is one of the most important stages of the recycling process, as it allows high-quality raw materials to be reused.
