Copper Wire Scrap 

Copper WireScrap refers to the scrap of copper wires which are junk and dysfunctionalwires sold as scrap for recycling and reprocessing works. The sources of suchscrap wires could be different. When a short circuit occurs in wiring system inbuildings it leads to total damage to wires because the insulation materialsget damaged and the wire is no more useful. In places, where there is overground laying of copper wires they remain at risk of damage due to climaticconditions or sudden fires which burn the insulation material leaving the bareand unfit for further. And in other conditions when the wire becomes damaged orunfit for further use due to some or other factor, they go as scrap.

Metal scrap isbig and ever expanding industry where junk metal goods are collected andrecycled to make them suitable for use again. Junk metal of one type arecollected and put into furnace for melting. The process result in removal ofthe impurities and pure molten metal is obtained in the end. The molten metalis then shaped and moulded into different products depending on specific metalscrap industry. Some use scrap metals for making automobiles, bikes, automotiveparts while others use for making different types of machinery.

For meltingdifferent types of metal, different type of furnace is used. The furnacecapacity depends on the property of the metal. Some require high melting thanothers. Copper is a hard metal; its melting point is 1085^oC.Therefore, for melting of copper scrap a furnace with such high temperaturemelting capacity is used. The molten copper is then moulded into differentshapes for making copper-based products.

Useof Recycled Copper

The use ofrecycled copper depends on the purity of the obtained copper. In someapplications, copper of high purity is needed. If the copper is finely recycledand attributed with good purity, it can be used for:

• Electronics
• Wiring
• Transportation vehicles
• Power generation
• Industrial machinery
• Telecommunications
• Roofing
• Motors
• Appliances
• Plumbing
• Heat exchangers

Less pure coppercan be used in roof sheeting and plumbing tubes. In electrical and electronicgoods good electrical conduction is needed. For that high purity copper is usedthat will ensure optimum conductivity.
