Steven Fischer World's Largest Recycler and Manufacturer of Aluminium at Novelis

1. Steven Fischer: World's Largest Recycler and Manufacturer of Aluminium at Novelis Aluminium or Al as it is known from The Periodic Table during our school days, is the third most abundant element present on the Earth’s surface. This pure chemical element is obtained from the ore of Bauxite through a careful process of extraction and is an integral part of our daily lives, because of its uniquely featured characteristics. It is malleable, ductile, durable, non-magnetic, non-corrosive, and showcases the ability to be a highly conductive material. Apart from its scientific background, we can easily find Aluminium playing an essential part in the objects around us. We can find Aluminium to be made of Cans, Bottles, Foils, Wraps, Tins, Utensils, Frames, Auto Parts, Aviation Parts, Furniture, Electrical Appliances, Fixtures, etcetera. Be it in the various industries of Construction, Aerospace, Automotive, Packaging, Distribution, Storage, Transportation, Manufacturing, and many more, the use of Aluminium is widely used and known. Aluminium in our daily lives simply makes up an enormous quantity of production because of its uses and needs. Making up almost 8% of the Earth’s crust, this metal which is used widely can also be seen to be disposed of quickly and can hence comprise a rapid and enormous amount of waste production. Numbers show that in 2018, there were around 2.7 million tons of Aluminium waste produced in The United States of America alone. Although the quantity of the consumption and use of the metal on a global scale was said to be 64.2 million tons in 2021, 75% of the Aluminium produced is still recycled here, but unfortunately, it holds a staggering number and quantity that is dumped in landfills and in public spaces which invariably pollutes and harms the environment’s ecosystem and biodiversity. We can say that the maximum recycling of Aluminium possible is a good sustainable initiative which is then re-used in so many objects that become a part of lives once again. Therefore in this article, we will cover the fascinating journey of one such enterprise that has been recognized as the World's largest producer of flat-rolled Aluminium industry metal that is manufactured and recycled from the wastes produced.
