Abstract
The shredding of waste automobiles results in a mixture of ferrous metal, non-ferrous metal and shredder waste, called automotive shredder residue(ASR). ASR often contains hazardous substances, however, currently, most of ASR is landfilled. It is very important to recycle ASR from end-of-life vehicles(ELVs) into raw materials and to recover energy from the ASR. In the present work, the physical and chemical characteristics of ASR have been investigated to promote the ASR recycling. In the present study, the test results on the apparent density, physical-chemical compositions, calorific values, and leaching properties for ASR samples will be presented. Environmental impacts are also evaluated in case of incineration of ASR.
