Magnets will pick up steel cans, lifting them away from a solid waste stream. Additionally, rapidly changing magnetic fields can be used to "pop" other metals out of a solid waste stream, through current induced in those metals.

Why is steel not used to make electro magnets?
steel is note for an elecromagnet because once it turned magnetic it stays magnetic
How and where are magnets used in places of work?
The main use of magnets in workplaces is for the transfer of electrical waves into tools, drills, saws, etc. They make use of magnets.
Can rusty magnets attract other magnets like regular magnets and can they Repel also?
Well, rusty magnets do not work as well as a normal magnet. But they can work. And yes try can repel but if you use rusty magnets, it won't work as well. I hope this helped! :)
Do magnets work on paper?
Yes.
Will a fan rotate in vaccum?
The motor of a fan works because of electromagnets, and electromagnets do work in vaccum so the fan will also work in vaccum.But, the fan will not cause any flow of anything because there is nothing to flow.
How does a magnetic can sorter work?
well it uses magnets duhhh.... :P
How does a can sorter work?
a can sorter simply works by picking tins up with magnets and separating them from other materials i think lol HE IS LYING
How do can sorting machines work?
Basically, a can sorter is a machine that uses magnets to separate cans with different materials.
Are electromagnets used in cameras?
Camera magnets are actually electromagnets; the magnetic field on an electromagnet is only there when you need it. They work like magnets everywhere else do; they are used in place of springs.
Why do loudspeakers use magnets?
It is more energy efficient not to have both the cone and the frame have electromagnets. But it can work either way.
Are magnets waterproof?
They do not absorb water and do work under water, if that's what you mean. Electromagnets can be made for underwater applications as well.
What are the advantages of electromagnets against normal magnets?
Electromagnets' magnetism can be manipulated. Electromagnets can be magnetised and demagnetised by passing electric current. Therefore they are used in motors- which works when the coil is magnetised by passing an electric current. It is also used for cranes.
How do electromagnets work in a fridge?
To make it cold;Lxxx
How does the electromagnet train work?
Popularly called MegLev there are two different modes of operation. When the train is still at the station it can be held by magnets. In motion electromagnets are like an electric motor that has been flattened out. The stator on the ground ( the tracks ) and the rotor being the train. The train is confined with magnets and electromagnets. The linear motor can be in the train, "the tracks" or both. Preferable would be a combination with the tracks pushing and levitating the train along with permanent magnets. The train with balancing magnets and electromagnets to keep it in the track and going. There is a way of putting the magnets together with their fields at right angles to each other. This puts the magnetic force on one side.
How does the magnet work in a DVD players?
There are magnets in the motor that spins the disk, and there are magnets that move the reading head (laser) in and out on the disk as it plays. They are electromagnets - they only work if an electrical current is applied to the coil of the magnet.
Why is steel not used to make electro magnets?

How do magnets work in telephone?
Magnets are used in telephones' speakers to make vibrations of air (sounds)
