What
are the benefits of recycling steel?
Recycling
steel helps save landfill space while providing a valuable scrap
resource to the steel industry.
Using
old steel to make new steel also preserves natural resources and
energy. For every ton of steel recycled, 2500 pounds of iron ore,
1400 pounds of coal and 120 pounds of limestone are conserved.
And
in a year, the steel industry conserves the equivalent energy to
power about 18 million homes for 12 months. |
