Scrap consists of recyclable materials, usually metals, left over from manufacturing and consumption, such as parts of vehicles, building supplies, and surplus materials. Unlike waste, scrap can carry monetary value, especially recovered metals, though non-metallic materials are also recovered for recycling; once collected, the materials are sorted into types, with metal scrap typically crushed, shredded, and sorted using mechanical processes.
