Description of Copper Scrap
Copper scrap refers to discarded copper materials that can be recycled and reused. This material is a significant source of copper for manufacturing new products, conserving natural resources, and reducing environmental impact. Copper scrap is available in various grades, each differing in purity and physical characteristics. Recycling copper scrap is energy-efficient compared to producing new copper from ore. The recycling process includes collecting, sorting, cleaning, and melting the scrap to produce reusable copper.
