Description
This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) alloying purchased nonferrous metals and/or (2) recovering nonferrous metals from scrap. Establishments in this industry make primary forms (e.g., bar, billet, bloom, cake, ingot, slab, slug, wire) using smelting or refining processes.
Establishments primarily engaged in-
· Recovering aluminum and aluminum alloys from scrap and/or alloying purchased aluminum-are classified in U.S. Industry 331314, Secondary Smelting and Alloying of Aluminum; · Merchant wholesalers sorting and breaking up scrap metal without also smelting or refining-are classified in Industry 423930, Recyclable Material Merchant Wholesalers; · Recovering nonferrous metals from scrap and rolling, drawing, or extruding shapes in integrated facilities-are classified in U.S. Industry 331491, Nonferrous Metal (except Copper and Aluminum) Rolling, Drawing, and Extruding; · Operating facilities where commingled recyclable materials, such as paper, plastics, used beverage cans, and metals, are sorted into distinct categories without also smelting or refining-are classified in Industry 562920, Materials Recovery Facilities; and · Recovering copper and copper alloys from scrap and making primary forms; and/or alloying purchased copper-are classified in U.S. Industry 331423, Secondary Smelting, Refining, and Alloying of Copper.
