Scrap metal recycling in Alberta continues to be very successful. The overall recycling rate for all sources of ferrous and non-ferrous metals is approximately 75% and 45% respectively.Only a portion (30%) of scrap metals are considered part of the municipal solid waste (MSW) stream, and the recycling of these metals is much less successful.Most sources of scrap metal are not considered part of MSW, as they have traditionally been recycled for their high end value and are unlikely to end up in landfills.
