No 6 in the List of Environmental Issues – Metals smelting and processing

Closer to home is the need to recycle Heavy Metals such as chromium, cadmium, nickel, copper, and zinc!

Facilities that carry out smelting and processing of these Metals are often associated with the emission of high quantities of air pollutants such as hydrogen fluoride, sulfur dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, offensive and noxious smoke fumes, vapors, gases, and other toxins.  Of course, it does not end with gases.  Heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, chromium, cadmium, nickel, copper, and zinc are also added to the list .
