Why the same magnets are not used for separating both aluminium and steel cans?

Aluminium and steel have different magnetic properties. Steel is ferromagnetic, meaning it is attracted to magnets, while aluminium is non-magnetic and does not respond to magnetic fields. Therefore, magnets can effectively separate steel cans from other materials, but they cannot be used to separate aluminium cans, which require different methods, such as air classifiers or eddy current separators.
