Hello All,
I'm new to the forum but I've been working in scrap metal for a long time.



We have been handing an stamping plant for years that generates steel busheling as well as a small amount of copper clad busheling, which we take for basically no cost. I'm not sure how it's generated but it's definitely a plating of some sort and it's not able to be manually separated.

In the past we have handled this a variety of ways:
- Let it sit out for months at a time so that it rusts and "hides" the copper color to be sold in a #2 Busheling or Dealer Busheling package
- Burnt it in a small test batch with great results but not able to be done on a large scale for various (obvious) reasons
- Mixed it in with exported Tin Plated Steel (no longer an option)

I've tried to market this material by itself but have had no luck.
Any thoughts on how to handle and/or process this material?
I'm not looking to recover any copper. I just want to be able to sell the steel.
