Specification Obtaining and using metals · Paper 3, Paper 4
Revise: Recycling metals and life-cycle assessmentsScrap metal can be collected, sorted, melted and recast into new shapes. This is recycling. It differs from reuse: using the same metal container again is reuse, whereas melting it to make another product is recycling.
Distinguish reuse from recycling: washing and refilling a bottle is reuse; crushing and melting it is recycling.
Check whether products are compared over the same amount of use. State how assumptions about reuse or recycling affect your conclusion.
