Sustainable Mining and Metallurgy

With the rapid development of China’s economy, China has become the world’s first county in terms of car consumption increment and ownership, while the number of cars to be scrapped is also increasing. Non-ferrous metals, tires, glass and other materials and components in end-of-life vehicles can be recycled. So the dismantling industry of end-of-life vehicles has broad market prospects. This paper investigated the current situation of the dismantling industry of end-of-life vehicles at home and abroad, and took a dismantling project as an example for economic and technical analysis. Finally, it analyzed the current shortcomings of the domestic dismantling industry of end-of-life vehicles, and put forward corresponding suggestions. The dismantling of waste automobiles has good comprehensive economic, social and environmental benefits, which can promote the development of circular economy and achieve energy conservation and emission reduction. Although there are many shortcomings, with the gradual formulation and implementation of policies, the future automobile dismantling and recycling industry will gradually be standardized, clear and green.
