“Steel is 100 per cent recyclable. It can be reused over and over again without any loss of quality. Scrap is therefore a valuable raw material for steel production.”

Scrap was always part of the charge loaded into steel furnaces, years ago I spent time in Sheffield steelworks laboratories testing samples from open-hearth and electric furnaces, quality was checked with care,whatever the feed to the furnace consisted of.
