Market Problem: Challenges of Metal Scrap Powder in Construction and Manufacturing

The construction and manufacturing industries generate a significant amount of metal scrap powder, often considered worthless waste. As it accumulates over time, this scrap becomes an environmental burden and a costly expense for businesses to manage.

1. Environmental Impact:

• Environmental Pollution: Metal scrap powder, if not handled properly, can release toxic substances into soil, water, and air, causing severe environmental contamination.
• Land Use: Storing and landfilling metal scrap requires considerable land area, affecting natural habitats and other activities.

2. Financial Burden:

• Treatment Costs: Treating metal scrap powder can be expensive, including transportation, storage, processing, and compliance with environmental regulations.
• Lost Value: Metal scrap powder holds potential economic value if recycled, but the lack of effective recycling solutions leads to resource waste and missed revenue opportunities.
