| Technology description including background system | Aluminum profiles are produced by an extrusion process. The starting material is aluminium billets (typically of cylindrical shape), which are pressed through a dye into the desired shape at the temperatures of 400-500 ° C. In the disposal phase, mechanical dismantling is accounted for in module C1 for steel products (excavator), for all other metals a manual dismantling is assumed (no loads). Collecting losses are neglected. It is assumed that all metals reach the end of the waste status immediately after dismantling. This means that the loads for processing and the credits for the substitution of primary material are shown in Module D. The transport in module C2 to the treatment plant takes place with a truck (50km). Module D includes loads for sorting, remelting, slag treatment, landfill, filtration of dusts and dross treatment. Credits are given for the net scrap amount (amount returned minus secondary material content, minus processing losses) for the average material mix (from different alloys). | ||
