How many aluminium cans could be recycled for the same amount of energy to make one alunium can?
800 kj
What else can I help you with?
Why is it economic to recycle aluminium cans but less so for steel cans?
Because the amount of energy needed to reduce metallic aluminium from its ores is much larger than the amount of energy required to reduce iron from its ores. Reprocessing aluminium is therefore cheaper than smelting new aluminium by a larger margin than that for reprocessed iron. Also, but to a much smaller extent, because recycled aluminium is a much more uniform product, which melts directly to a material that can be used, whereas recycled steel tends to consist of a great mixture of different alloys, and melts to a material with all sorts of admixtures that is not suitable for many uses without further refining.
Why is aluminium recycled even though it is the most abundant metal in the earths crust?
because it requires expensive electrolysis to convert aluminium ore into aluminium, and there are few places where its ore is concentrated enough to be economically viable.
Can aluminum can be recycled?
Yes, aluminum cans can be recycled. In fact, they are one of the most recyclable items, as they can be melted down and reused multiple times without losing quality. Recycling aluminum cans also helps in conserving energy and reducing carbon emissions.
What is one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled?
energy
Can energy be recycled through an ecosystem explain why or why not?
no it can not be recyled because matter can not be recycled so it cant be either

Why does recycling glass and aluminium reduce the amount of energy used by industry to make these materials?

Is an aluminum can an energy resource?
No, but an aluminum can can be recycled using much less energy than it takes to separate an equivalent amount of aluminum from its ore.
When was Recycled Energy Development created?
Recycled Energy Development was created in 2006.
Can aluminum can be recycled?
Yes, aluminum cans can be recycled. In fact, they are one of the most recyclable items, as they can be melted down and reused multiple times without losing quality. Recycling aluminum cans also helps in conserving energy and reducing carbon emissions.
What is called energy bank because of the energy saved in it's recycling?
Aluminium is called ''Energy Bank'' because the energy saved in recycling.
Which component of a stable ecosystem can not be recycled?
Energy cannot be recycled in an ecosystem. While matter like nutrients and water can be recycled within ecosystems, energy flows through the system and is eventually lost as heat.
Is energy recycled and nutrients flow in one direction only?
energy flows in one direction and nutrients are recycled.
Can both matter and energy be recycled?
no
What is one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled?
energy
Why is it important to use energy?
It's not energy can be recycled and reused
