If you throw them in a waste basket, they will eventually get into a landfill.
But if you are smart, you will take the scrap metal to a scrap metal recycling center (find one near you with Google maps). These recycling centers will pay you CASH MONEY for your scrap metal. In other words, you can make money from what would otherwise be garbage.
Once you recycle the scrap, it will get remelted into industrial grade materials. (aka copper, aluminum, lead, nickel, cobalt, iron, molybdenum, gold, platinum, silver ect)
Bonus grade scrap refers to scrap materials that exceed standard quality requirements and can be sold for a higher price than typical scrap. This type of scrap is often generated from manufacturing processes and includes higher purity metals or materials that are more easily recyclable. Due to its quality, bonus grade scrap is sought after by recyclers and manufacturers looking to minimize costs and improve the quality of their products.
Scrap metal price starts at .07 USD per pound and goes up from there. Bright copper can be sold for over $3.30 per pound near me! Scrap metal price is another way of saying what is the price of scrap metal? One needs to be specific when asking this quetion as there are many different types and grades of scrap metal. Scrap metal encompasses ferrous (iron, steel, HMS) and non ferrous (copper, aluminum, zinc, base metals, etc.) metals. There are also different grades of scrap metal, for example there s prepared steel, unprepared steel, copper #1, HMS #1 etc. Each commands a different price. There are many sites on line that post prices or check with your local recycler.
FE Aluminum scrap metal refers to scrap materials that contain both ferrous (iron-based) and aluminum metals. This type of scrap can come from various sources, including old machinery, construction materials, and consumer products. The presence of ferrous materials can affect the recycling process, as aluminum must be separated from iron to ensure quality recycling. In recycling, such mixed metal scraps are typically processed to recover the valuable aluminum and ferrous metals for reuse.
HMS1 and HMS2 typically refer to two grades of high melting scrap metal, often used in recycling and metallurgy. HMS1 (Heavy Melting Steel 1) consists of heavier and thicker scrap, such as large industrial items, while HMS2 (Heavy Melting Steel 2) includes lighter scrap like thinner sheets and miscellaneous scrap metals. These classifications help in determining the quality and price of scrap metal in the recycling market.
Steel is separated from other metals in scrap yards using a combination of physical and magnetic methods. Since steel is ferromagnetic, powerful magnets can attract and isolate it from non-magnetic metals like aluminum and copper. Additionally, processes such as shredding and screening can further sort materials based on size and density. Advanced techniques, like eddy current separators, may also be employed to enhance the separation efficiency.
I have never found anyplace where you actually "get scrap metals and get paid for it."On the other hand I TAKE my scrap metals to local metal merchants and get paid for that.
Scrap metal prices are different for nonferrous and ferrous scrap metals. Ferrous scrap metals (iron, steel) are typically in dollars per ton whereas non ferrous scrap metals are in dollars per pound.
There are many types of scrap metals. There are ferrous scrap metals and there are non ferrous scrap metals as well as precious metal scrap and exotic metal scrap. Each type of scrap metal sells for a different price per pound. Also depending on the grade of the scrap metal (prepared, unprepared, stripped, etc.) and your location in the world, the price of scrap metal will vary. Supply and demand also dictates the price of scrap.
This depends on their location, the types and quality of scrap metals they receive, and the market demand/price for those metals.
The current price of scrap metal depends on the type of scrap metal. There are different prices for non ferrous and ferrous scrap metal prices depending on your location in the world. Prices also fluctuate on a daily basis Some average prices for the United States, as of April 15 2011 are: No. 1 Copper $3.30 per pound No. 2 Copper $3.20 per pound No. 3 Copper $3.10 per pound Steel Scrap $380 - 400 per ton
no, scrap and other metals are created by smelting weapons that you have.
There are many different types of scrap metals (ferrous and non ferrous) - meaning scrap metals encompass steel, copper, brass, aluminum, HMS, zinc, lead, etc.. You need to be more specific on what type of scrap metal prices you are seeking.
They use electromagnets to separate magnetic metals from non-magnetic metals/materials in scrapyards.
Steel, iron and nickel.

A magnet is attracted by metals containing iron in their makeup, primarily steel.
The price of brass, like other metals or scrap metals, changes on a daily basis.
