Advancing End-of-Life Automotive Aluminum Recycling

September 12, 2024

As the automotive industry increasingly shifts toward electric vehicles (EVs), the challenge of recapturing aluminum from end-of-life vehicles has become more critical. With aluminum’s lightweight, sustainable properties, the industry is searching for ways to efficiently recycle high-value alloys without downgrading their quality. Traditional methods often lead to downcycling, mixing various alloys together, and reducing their overall value.

In a new blog, Daniel Kern discusses industry-wide solutions, including innovative scrap sortation and segregation technologies that enable the recovery of specific alloys. These advancements, combined with new uni-alloy designs and collaboration across the supply chain, offer promising pathways to improve recycling processes and create a more sustainable future for automotive aluminum.
