What Is Paper Recycling?

That product is sold and transported to paper mills worldwide for reprocessing and production into new packaging, office paper, tissue, newsprint, and a multitude of other paper products.While all countries must strive to improve their procedures, there are some encouraging paper recycling facts: Forty-five percent (45%) of the world’s total paper production is produced using recovered paper and board, also known as recovered fiber or paper. In the U.S., roughly 80% of America’s paper mills rely on paper recycling to make some or all of their products. One hundred and forty mills use only recovered paper to manufacture new products.

The United States recovered 51.8 million tons of paper in 2008. Of this total, 57.4% of the paper was consumed in the U.S. (enough paper to fill more than 100 Empire State Buildings). 20.1million tons of recovered paper was exported in 2008, including 2.8 million tons of printed news, 6.3 million tons of corrugated cardboard, 7.2 million tons of mixed paper, 600,000 tons of hi-grade paper, 1.3 million tons of pulp subs, and 1.7 million tons of other forms of recovered paper.

Due to modern paper recycling procedures, more than 70% of the corrugated containers and newspapers consumed are recovered. Each percentage point of recovery represents roughly 1 million tons of fiber – enough fiber to fill 14,000 railroad cars.

Paper recycling presents significant environmental and energy benefits. Recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees, cheap replica watches 79 gallons of oil, 7,000 gallons of water, 4000 KWH of electricity (enough to power the average U.S. home for five months), and 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space. Using recycled materials vs. virgin requires on 60% of the energy. Paper recycling prevents more than 115 million metric tons of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere.*

Plastic recycling

Plastic recycling affects a range of products, from drink containers to shopping bags to pipes. The use of plastic in the majority of our products makes recycling very important.Curbside programs often make recycling plastic containers and products easy. While there may be some plastics that are not accepted in a curbside program, many of these materials are recyclable at a qualified center.

To know the best way to recycle these products, it’s best to learn more about their life cycles, including what types of plastics are used for different products.First, why are most plastics marked with a number inside a recycling symbol? The simple answer is that each number represents the type of resin made to cheap replica watches produce the plastic. These numbers are plastic #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6 and #7. Because each resin is different, these numbers affect how and where you can recycle plastics.

• According to the Beverage Marketing Corp, the average American consumed 1.6 gallons of bottled water in 1976. In 2006, that number jumped to 28.3 gallons.
• Today, 80 percent of Americans have access to a plastics recycling program.
• More than 2.4 billion pounds of plastic bottles were recycled in 2008. Although the amount of plastic bottles recycled in the U.S. has grown every year since 1990, the actual recycling rate remains steady at around 27 percent.
• In 2007, more than 325 million pounds of wide-mouth plastic containers were recovered for recycling. (This included deli containers, yogurt cups, etc.)
• In recent years, the number of U.S. plastics recycling business has nearly tripled. More than 1,600 businesses are involved in recycling post-consumer plastics.
• Plastics in the U.S. are made primarily (70 percent) from domestic natural gas.
• Plastic bags and product wraps (known collectively as “plastic film”) are commonly recycled at the many collection programs offered through major grocery stores.
• Recycling 1 ton of plastic saves 7.4 cubic yards of landfill space.
• During Keep America Beautiful’s 2008 Great American Cleanup, volunteers recovered and recycled 189,000,000 PET (plastic) bottles that littered highways, waterways and parks.*

About Iron & Steel

The element iron (Fe) is one of the most abundant on earth, but it does not occur in nature in useful metallic form. Metallic iron, from which steel is derived, must be extracted from iron ore. By definition, steel is a  combination of iron with a small amount of carbon.  Iron and steel comprise about 95 percent of all the tonnage of metal produced annually in the United States and the world. According to the USGS, the nationÂ’s iron and steel industry and ferrous foundries produced goods in 2007 that were valued at about $150 billion. The industry consisted of about 57 companies that produced raw steel at about 116 plants, with combined production capability of about 113 million tons.

Non-ferrous Metals

Aluminum, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, titanium, cobalt, chromium and precious metals are the most commonly used non-ferrous metals. Millions of tones of nonferrous scrap are recovered annually and used by smelters, refiners, ingot makers, foundries, and other manufacturers in the U.S. and in more than 90 countries worldwide. According to ISRI, more than 9 million metric tons of nonferrous scrap was processed in the U.S. last year from a wide array of consumer, commercial and industrial sources. In terms of volume, ISRI estimates that nonferrous scrap made up less than 10% of the total quantity of material recycled in the U.S. last year, while by value, cheap replica watches nonferrous metal scrap and precious metal scrap together accounted for more than half of total U.S. scrap recycling industry earnings in 2012. The secondary materials in scrap are vital to the metallurgy industry, as the production of new metals often needs them. Non ferrous metals recycling processes include bailing, shearing, sorting, melting and media separation. At present, BIR estimates that approximately 30% of global zinc production comes from secondary zinc and over 80% of the zinc for recycling is eventually recycled. As for copper, almost 40% of the world’s demand is met using recycled material.

JC Horizon mainly focus on trading and exporting nonferrous scrap to metal scrap purchasers. Below are some examples of materials we are actively dealing. To get a current price for the materials you want to sell, please call or email us.
