What is a feeder yard in the scrap metal industry and what functions are performed there?
Feeder yards are the entry point for scrap metal to enter the 'system'. So a feeder yard would collect the metal from small vans etc. Basic feeder yards will then bale the material and send it to bigger yards to be processed (others might process it a little by shreading etc). In short, they are the mouth of the metal industry.
How are magnets used in junk yards?
Rather than "permanent" magnets, the large electromagnets used in junkyards only create a magnetic field when electric current flows through them. They are used to lift iron and steel scrap, and to separate it from non-magnetic scrap. The cranes have an electric generator connected to a wire coil in the large round lifting disc. When the power is on, its magnetic field attracts heavy iron and steel to it. When the scrap is positioned where they want it, they cut the power to the electromagnet and the scrap drops. They are attached to cranes and are used to lift up heaps of scrap metal
What does chatarra el baston mean?
My guess is that you have the words arranged incorrectly. "Chatarra" is like scrap metal, and "bastón" is a cane. Él bastón chatarra would mean "the metal cane" (implying that the metal is scrap metal.)
Why can't we use a permanent magnet in a scrap yard?
You need to use an electromagnet in a scrap yard so that you can let go of the pieces of scrap that you pick up. A permanent magnet would not allow you to let go.

How much could you earn if you were to scrap a 14x70 foot mobile home?
I don't think the readers understand my question. I want to know how much money the scrap metal I get from a 14x70 mobile would be worth. Not asking for any fees associated with or any thing that would come from the value of the scrap metal. Just the value of the scrap. I have pretty much gotten everything out that you can sell for scrap. Thank you very much Waiting for reply
How many MT scrap metal can you load in 20 ft container?
The amount of MT (metric tons) of scrap metal that can be loaded into a 20 ft container depends on the density of the specific type of scrap metal being loaded. On average, a 20 ft container can typically hold between 18-25 metric tons of scrap metal. Factors such as the size and shape of the metal pieces, as well as any regulations or weight restrictions, can also impact the maximum load capacity of the container. It is important to consult with a professional in the shipping or scrap metal industry to determine the exact weight limit for the specific type of scrap metal being loaded.

What are electromagnets used to record information on?
Electromagnets...electromagnets are magnets attract, or pull, some kinds of metal objects. Stronger magnets exert a greater pull on the objects they attract. Sometimes it would be useful if you could turn off a magnet when you did not want it to attract objects. That is what an electromagnet can do. Some electromagnets .in power plants and factories electromagnets are very large. You can make a small, simple electromagnet in school or at home.
What happens to scrap metals?
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)
Would scrap metal be attracted to electromagnet?
Yes, scrap metal can be attracted to an electromagnet because when an electric current passes through the coil of wire in the electromagnet, it creates a magnetic field that can attract ferromagnetic materials like iron and steel.
