Navigating the Modern Scrap Metal Jungle

January 18, 2016 by Reporter Leave a Comment

There was a time when businesses and people consumed materials and moved onto new resources as necessary. There was so much supply available, nobody worried about shortages, production schedules, market competition for supplies and sustainable strategies. Those days are long gone now.

Changing Times

Today’s business in production is as much about locating sufficient material supplies for manufacturing need as well as squeezing the most out of every component, even used materials. Scrap metal is one such resource that many businesses find themselves dealing with. In the past, this would just be considered garbage, and fees would be paid to clean it up and haul the material to a local dump. However, today, scrap metal can be easily remelted and formed to make new, functional metal material as well as product. So not only does it have value for a new commercial user, it has value for the person holding the scrap metal and needing to recycle it timely.

Comprehensive Re-use Demand

Metal type doesn’t matter anymore; it’s all recyclable. And there’s a scrap metal price for almost all metal. And some metal types are worth more than ever. Copper, for example, is in high demand for electrical wiring applications. Scrap copper easily sells for premium prices, and it has high demand internationally. Platinum and palladium are also both in shorter supply and sell for healthy pricing as well. Both are needed for automotive construction, particularly exhaust systems.

Sydney Copper Scraps has been in the business of helping partners utilize and liquidate their scrap metal in the most effective ways possible. No two cases are exactly alike, and scrap metal deposits are often comprised of different mixtures and materials. An expert like Sydney Copper Scraps staff can evaluate and determine the best removal and liquidation for a given situation quickly, efficiently, and with the best value return.

Recycling Has Gotten Complex

The connections involved with multiple material liquidations in fluctuating scrap metal price markets typically involve coordination with multiple players. Smelters, transport, sorters, buyers and sellers all make up important links in the re-use chain that scrap metal enters. Sydney Copper Scraps is connected at every phase, making them a one-stop solution for any business that has a load of scrap metal waste to deal with and no idea how to go about it.

Don’t Get Stuck in the Government Quicksand

Additionally, working with a licensed and professional scrap metal processor helps avoid multiple regulations and rule pitfalls that can easily capture a well-meaning company that isn’t familiar with applicable bureaucracy. Rules and regulations cover everything from waste removal to environmental impact and necessary licensing, and reporting it all correctly represents potential pitfalls. Violations in this area can quickly result in expensive and damaging financial penalties as well as criminal sanctions for key managers involved.

A Working Solution

So when your business is facing a major plant deconstruction or facility change or your business regularly builds up a large supply of scrap metal, connect with Sydney Copper Scraps to make the process far easier with better scrap metal price returns. Don’t stumble blind into the recycling arena. The penalties and possible sanctions are entirely avoidable, but one needs an expert to navigate them.

The Worlds Biggest Marine Diesel Engines

April 12, 2015 by Reporter Leave a Comment

Marine technology has taken some highly innovative steps over the years. Diesel marine engines are by no means an exception to this fact. With the demand for internationally shipped goods and marine luxury travel increasing every day, the need for powerful marine engines to power these grandiose ships has become more and more imperative.

Here we illustrate some of the world’s biggest engines available. Although you may never need one this size, it’s interesting to note the developments in diesel engines, and you can clearly see how far technology has developed within the field.

Rudolf Diesel (1858-1913)

Born in Paris in 1858, Rudolf Diesel was an engineer best known for the invention of the diesel engine that he first successfully operated in 1897.

In 1900, Diesel first ran his engine (AKA the compression-ignition internal combustion engine) at the World Exhibition in Paris. The engine was, back then, run entirely on peanut oil, an accomplishment that to this day is highly praised by technicians and engineers across the globe. Rudolf Diesel officially patented the engine design on February 28, 1892.

Diesel died tragically on Sept 29th, 1913 when he disappeared from the Steamship Dresden while travelling from Antwerp, Belgium to Harwick, England. On October 10th 1913 his body was recovered from the English Channel. To this day, his death is considered one of history’s great mysteries. Although Diesel’s death was deemed a suicide, many believed and still believe that he was a victim of foul play.

Since then modern technology and engineering have substantially improved his original design into the massive marine diesel engines used in today’s cargo ships, submarines and locomotives (to name a few).

Wartsila-Sulzer RT-flex 96C

This two-stroke, turbocharged, low-speed diesel engine was designed by Finnish manufacturer Wartsila, specifically for large container ships that run on heavy fuel. The Wartsila- Sulzer RTA96C is currently the world’s largest reciprocating engine in the world.

Put into service in September 2006 aboard the Emma Maersk, it’s common-rail technology along with a traditional camshaft, chain gear, fuel pumps and hydraulic actuators provides incredible performance at impressively low resolutions per minute, as well as low fuel consumption and much lower harmful emissions.

The Wartsila-Sulzer TF -flex 96C weighs in at a whopping 2300 tons and is 44 feet tall and 90 feet long.

M32CV

Introduced in 2000 the M32CV engine is available in both 12 and 16 cylinder versions. The engine boasts both a bore of 320 mm and a 460m stroke able to cover a power range of 6000-8000KW in the 750 and 750-rpm ranges.

MAN 48/60

The MAN 48/60 medium speed turbo diesel engine is a technologically advanced engine. It is typically used as a propulsion or power generation unit in large marine vessels. This engine is close to 10 meters long, weighs in at approximately 120 tons and holds an impressive 8400-kilowatt rating.

One of the many innovative features of this mammoth sized diesel engine is that one the 48/60’s seven cylinders have the ability to be converted to handle natural gas.

Choosing the right diesel engine/motor

Choosing the best possible diesel engine or diesel motors depends entirely on the size and weight of your vessel. Whether you are planning to haul large cargo via marine vessel, building a large cruise ship or simply want to add the best in marine diesel engines to your vessel, then it is important that you research an engine that will provide you the longest possible life.

Luckily, in today’s Internet-based world there are many options and reviews available to assist you in your purchase. Find a reputable supplier who can give you good advice and you’ll soon settle on the right engine for you.
