Description

Used Rail Scrap consists of discarded rail tracks that have been removed from service due to wear and tear, or replaced during maintenance and upgrades. Typically composed of steel, used rail scrap is a valuable resource in the recycling industry. It can come in various forms, including whole rail sections, cut pieces, or remnants from decommissioned railways.

The primary characteristic of used rail scrap is its durability and strength, as rail tracks are engineered to withstand significant stress and heavy loads. This makes the material highly desirable for recycling into new steel products. The recycling process involves melting down the scrap in electric arc furnaces, where it is purified and then used as raw material for producing new steel products.

Used rail scrap is typically sold to steel mills and recycling centers. It must be processed to remove any contaminants or non-metallic elements before being recycled. Due to its high strength and resistance to wear, rail scrap can be repurposed into high-quality steel products, making it an important component in sustainable manufacturing and infrastructure projects.
