    Optical sorters are amazing. Have 2 at my Facility and they are flawless capturing materials, ridiculously accurate and have so many options, 100 or so of materials you pin point specifically.

    Fascinating how they sort the different alloys. I'd always assumed it all ended up melted into a lower grade muddy mix allow or was added at smaller percentage to economise use of raw materials. Our local scrap yard separates wheel rims ( about 20% magnesium ) but all the rest goes into the same bin.

    Billions? A billion is 1,000 million. You do realise that ? The current production of aluminium globally is about 70 million, so a billion is around 14 years of production at current levels. Less than half of the production rate is recycled globally, so around 30 million tons. Nothing like a billion or billions.

    There’s no such thing as a “Circular Flow” economy.
    For those unfamiliar with the term, a “Circular Flow” economy is the idea that governments all over the world must subscribe to a centralized trading-platform which ensures that the people in every country receive the same amount of food.
    So if Nigeria’s rapidly expanding population “needs” more food, then the circular flow economy is legally obligated to buy their oil, even if nobody wants it. And America is legally obligated to pay for the unwanted Nigerian oil with Kentucky Corn.
    This preposterous arrangement which rewards global population growth is euphemistically called “Circular Flow Managed Trade”. That’s why America is forced to buy coffee from South America. We can grow all the coffee we want in Florida. It’s “managed trade” which has bankrupted our country.
    We need to be honest: Billions of excess people are going to starve to death, so the sooner that we get the communists out of Washington, the sooner that we can save the Earth.
    Without a “circular-flow” economy that rewards evil.
    During the great die-off, we’ll have to disconnect the mobile phones, the cable T.V. and the internet. It’s the only way.

    If you are going to use metric measurements, can you at least convert them as well? I have no concept as to 1300 cm, but 511 inches means something.

    • @DarkVoidIII

      Google shows that 1 inch equals 2.54 cm. Any search engine could tell you that.

      1300cm is not a metric expression, because it is like saying 1,300 x 0.1 metres. 1,300cm is thus 13,000mm or 13m. 511 inches means nothing to me even though I grew up with imperial. But as you converted the 13m to inches, it seems it was not so difficult. If you think of a metre as just over a yard, you cannot go too wrong, but maybe you only think in inches ? Then I wonder how the speedometer of your car looks !

    [ huh-moj-uh-nuhs]... It's difficult to be scientifically credible when you can't pronounce relevant words, adding an extra syllable and letter takes you into "ignorant". This video appears to make the recycling process more difficult than processing raw ore and then alloying it to the desired grade of aluminum. If that is the goal, then the pretense of being environmentally better is evident. I love the business of taking processed material and reusing it, pretending that it's "green" is a deception. There is nothing about the manufacturing of the equipment used to recycle aluminum that can be considered safer than any other process. Kinda like EV's, once you educate yourself on the incredible toxicity of building, disposing them, plus the illusion of electricity being "clean" energy (relative to the power plant) you find yourself going from ignorant to educated, then pretending you didn't see any of that, going directly to stupid. Your choice, until they throw the power switch.

      Making aluminium from ore uses electricity and carbon electrodes. Thus giving off carbondioxide just by burning down the electrodes in the process. One can't just smelt Bauxit and get aluminium. It is as involved as the recycling. Have you even processed the given video and understood what is really going on in the sorting/recycling of the alloy mixture.
