Over 5 million cars are scrapped yearly in Japan. After dismantling scrapped automobiles, they put into a shredder for differential recovery of ferrous and nonferrous metals. The residue, which is called shredder dust, runs over 1.2 million tons per year. This paper reports a entire sequence of scrapping cars in Japan with the following sections: Production and scrapped car management, material composition, dismantling, shredder plant, and differential recovery of metals including specific gravity separation and newly developed color separation.
