An "alloy" is the combination of two or more elements (usually metals). As such, they have no direct impact on the environment, other than how they were obtained (e.g., mining) and how they were produced (e.g., smelting). Since the question does not specify which alloy, if any, is of interest, it is virtually impossible to give a more detailed answer.

How are classification non ferrous alloys?

Classification of non-ferrous alloys is typically based on their primary alloying elements. Common categories include aluminum alloys, copper alloys, magnesium alloys, and titanium alloys, each with specific properties and applications. Non-ferrous alloys are distinguished from ferrous alloys by the absence of iron as the primary constituent in the alloy composition.
