Trade of styrene scrap has been a relatively modest part of the GPSN18 representing about 5 of both weight and value of total plastic scrap trade. While new styrene polymer ranges in price between USD 1.321.37/kg scrap styrene was traded at an average of USD 0.46/kg in 2018 second in price only to PVC scrap (ICIS 2019 Chermobis 2018).
In an interesting study by Zelmat et al. (2017) indicating the possibility of isolation of plastics from ternary mixture of PVC PVC with lower carbon content and recycled ABS (isolated from WEEE) with average size of 20 μm. They have also pointed out that obtained isolated plastics have higher purity level (>95 ) however purity and efficiency of the isolation depends upon the instrument characteristics
The consumption of metals and the resulting metal waste is a huge environmental problem. Metal waste imposes several adverse effects on our planet. Therefore it is crucial to develop processes in order to mitigate the problem. One effective measure against the problem of metal waste is metal recycling.
Electronic waste or e-waste is an emerging problem with developed nations as with developing nations. In the absence of proper collection and disposal systems awareness and proper regulations the problem is rather more acute in developing nations. These wastes are environmentally hazardous on one hand and valuable on the other. They contain substantial amount of metal value
The new technology transforms PVC waste into completely new chemical products/raw materials. The process is based on a combined thermal and chemical degradation of PVC in a reactor. In the reactor the chlorine from the PVC reacts with fillers producing calcium chloride. The metal stabilisers (lead cadmium zinc and/or barium) are converted to
Die cast metal or white metal is another ideal candidate for eddy current separation. Its light weight and high conductivity allow the formation of high current and large force. There are other nonferrous metals such as zinc titanium magnesium bronze and brass which may be separable.

Eddy current separation technique is used for separating metals from nonmetal component for example aluminum from glass which cannot be done by gravity methods as the difference in the densities of aluminum and glass is very small. Other applications will be described in Chapter 7 on Metal Recycling. A schematic representation of eddy current separation is shown in Figure 3.23.
At the same time disposal of wastes whether by the relatively expensive method of incineration or the lower-cost use of burial in landfills is less expensive than waste separation with a portion recycled and a larger portion disposed of — even when scrap revenues were factored in. For these reasons MSW recycling has been essentially funded
A major problem in the recycling of PVC is the high chlorine content in raw PVC (around 56 percent of the polymer s weight) and the high levels of hazardous additives added to the polymer to achieve the desired material quality. As a result PVC requires separation from other plastics before mechanical recycling.
PVC also known as Polyvinyl Chloride or Vinyl is one of the most widely used plastics worldwide due to its chemical stability and durability. PVC products have an average lifetime of 30 years with some reaching 50 or more years. This means that more PVC products are reaching the end-of-life and entering the waste stream and the amount is likely
The single largest source of this scrap is the obsolete automobile. The shredder industry recovers about 10--12 million ton/yr of ferrous scrap most of which is from shredded automobiles. However for each ton of steel recovered over 500 lb of fluff are produced.
This leads to the separation of REEs from the rest of the magnet and magnet scrap. Liquid metal extraction The Ames Laboratory (USA) has developed a liquid metal-extraction process to selectively recover REEs from NdFeB and other REE-bearing alloys using Mg as extractant and later the process was studied further by other researchers 16 122

At first the magnetic separation is carried out at lower magnetic field strength of 0.1 T and then at 0.8 T of 10 cm/s belt speed of rare earth roll. The metal distribution in magnetics at 0.8 T is added on the metal distribution of product at 0.1 T.
The price of oil has increased significantly in the last few years from a range of around USD 25 per barrel to a price band between USD 50–150 since 2005. Hence although higher oil prices also increase the cost of collection and reprocessing to some extent recycling has become relatively more financially attractive.

Use of scrap steel for steel production entails much lower energy consumption and GHG emissions compared to ore-based primary steel production 9 58. This
Together with metals’ excellent recyclability this creates a lot of demand and value for metal scrap. Metal recycling process not only reduces demand for ores but also uses less energy than metal extractionwith reductions of as much of 56 for steel and over 90 for

Where decanter centrifuges reach their performance limits the use of separators begins. Thanks to their high speeds they are able to optimally process liquids.
metal recovery i.e. the ratio between the aluminum present in the scrap and the secondary aluminum obtained. The energy consumption and the harmful gas emission are considered too 76 .
The estimated annual PVC world production is at present more than 22 million tonnes. In addition to the PVC homopolymer PVC products consist of metal stabilisers plasticisers and fillers. Most of the PVC production waste is recycled mechanically. In Denmark around 10–15 of the collected post-consumed PVC waste can be recycled mechanically.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) was the most expensive plastic scrap according to 2018 data with prices averaging USD 0.56 per kg. As a comparison new PVC polymer averaged USD 1.3/kg in the primary market (Plasticsinsight 2019 Prnewswire 2014 Plasticsnews 2019).

Use of different media can allow separation of PS from PET but PVC cannot be removed from PET in this manner as their density ranges overlap. Other separation techniques such as air elutriation can also be used for removing low-density films from denser ground plastics (Chandra Roy 2007) e.g. in removing labels from PET flakes.
