Waste and scrap of aluminium

CPC v2.1 Code: 39363

About waste and scrap of aluminium

cpc code 39363 covers the industry of waste and scrap of aluminium. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader aluminium supply chain, as it facilitates the recycling and reuse of aluminium materials. Aluminium is a highly versatile and valuable metal, with applications across various sectors, including construction, transportation, and consumer goods. The efficient management and processing of aluminium waste and scrap are essential for maintaining a sustainable and circular economy.

Production process

The main production techniques used in the waste and scrap of aluminium industry involve the collection, sorting, and processing of aluminium-containing materials. This typically includes the separation of aluminium from other metals or contaminants, followed by melting and refining processes to produce high-quality aluminium ingots or other intermediate products. Advanced technologies, such as shredding, sorting, and smelting, are often employed to ensure the efficient and environmentally-friendly recovery of aluminium from waste streams.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for the waste and scrap of aluminium industry include various sources of aluminium-containing materials, such as 39361 Aluminium waste and scrap, 39362 Aluminium cans, and other aluminium-based products that have reached the end of their useful life. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized equipment and machinery for the collection, sorting, and processing of these materials, as well as energy sources and skilled labor to operate the production facilities.

Production outputs

The main outputs of the waste and scrap of aluminium industry are high-quality aluminium ingots, sheets, or other intermediate products that can be used as raw materials for a wide range of industries. These outputs may be consumed by manufacturers of 25210 Aluminium products, 25220 Aluminium structures, or other sectors that require aluminium as a key component in their production processes.
