摘要
With a global population approaching 7 billion, there simply is not enough primary aluminum available to indefinitely meet demand. Developing optimal effectiveness of aluminum recycling is critical to ensuring an adequate aluminum supply for future generations, while also contributing to a more sustainable world. This paper presents a framework for achieving substantial progress that integrates key elements of the aluminum recycling landscape: engineering, communication, public policy, and actionable sustainability strategies. © 2011 TMS.
