‘There are there obvious methods of conversing the world's methal resources (1). substitution, (2). reycyling, (3). utilizing lower-grade ores. Substitions involves replacing some of the metals currently used for consturction with more abundant resources, such as glass, granite, wood and perhaps plastics, (Ada metode yang jelas untuk mengkomunikasikan sumber daya metal dunia: (1). substitusi, (2). daur ulang, (3). memanfaatkan bijih bermutu rendah. Substansi melibatkan penggantian beberapa logam yang ‘saat ini digunakan untuk konstruksi dengan sumber daya yang lebih melimpah, seperti kaca, granit, kayu, dan mungkin plastik) Reycyling is possible now only for some metal products, such as aluminium cans and leads storage battries. Unfortunately, the steel in automobiles cannot be recycled economically because it is present in so many different alloy , all of which have different properties. Melting down mixtures of the alloys does not produce useful uniform materials. The presence of so many elements in the mixture results in very week steel. It is not possible to separate the components pf the alloys economically. Theese is way of three are so many junkyards in which old automobiles are allowed to rust away. ( Reyeyling sekarang hanya mungkin untuk beberapa produk logam, seperti Kaleng aluminium dan reng penyimpanan timah. Sayangnya, baja pada mobil tidak dapat didaur ulang secara ekonomis karena ‘erdapat dalam banyak paduan yang berbeda, yang kesemuanya memiliki sifat yang berbeda. Campuran yang meleleh dari paduan tidak menghasilkan bahan seragam yang berguna. Kehadiran begitu banyak elemen dalam hasil campuran baja sangat minggu. Tidak mungkin memisahkan komponen-komponen paduan secara ekonomis. Ini adalah cara ketiga yaitu begitu banyak tempat barang rongsokan di mana ‘mobil mobil tua dibiarkan berkarat ) The supply of copper, one of the most important metals, is running low. Copper from the writing in generators, starting motors, and elsewhere in automobiles could be easily recycled if most of the wiring ‘were not wound into the frame during assembly. If the assembly process were modified, the recycling of copper wire could become economically feasible. ( Pasokan tembaga, salah satu logam terpenting, semakin menipis. Tembaga dari tulisan di generator, motor starter, dan tempat lain di mobil dapat dengan mudah didaur ulang jika sebagian besar kabel tidak ‘tergulung ke dalam rangka selama perakitan. Jika proses perakitan diubah, daur ulang kawat tembaga dapat dilakukan secara ekonomis.) As the sources of ores of a particular metal dwindle, the cost of the metal rises. Consequently, it becomes profitiable to extract the metal from lower- grade ores Practically al the know ellement can be found in the sea, although most are present in very low concentrations. As the technology of extraction is improved and the prices of the element rise, more elements will be obtained from the sea. The seas are 0 vast that they can be considered to countain a virtually inexhaustible supply of many elements. Eventually it could become economically fleasible to do such things as mine the sea for many elements, separate elements from alloys, and obtain aluminium from the very abundant but intractable aluminosilicates that cover the surface of the earth, (Karena sumber bijih logam tertentu berkurang, harga logam tersebut meningkat. Akibatnya, menjadi ‘menguntungkan untuk mengekstraksi logam dari bh berkader rendah Praktis semua elemen tahu dapat ditemukan di laut, meskipun sebagian besar hadir dalam konsentrasi yang sangat rendah, Seiring dengan. peningkatan teknologi ekstraksi dan harga elemen meningkat, lebih banyak elemen akan diperoleh dari faut. Lautan sangat luas sehingga mereka dapat dianggep sebagai sumber pasokan banyak elemen yang hampir tidak ada habisnya. Pada akhimya, secara ekonomis bisa menjadi cepat untuk melakukan hal-hall seperti menambang laut untuk banyak elemen, memisahkan elemen dari paduan, dan mendapatkan aluminium dari aluminosilikat yang sangat melimpah tetapi sulit dipecahkan yang menutupi permukaan. bumi.) Question 10-20 (10) (18) g 25) There are three obvious methods of | conserving the world’s metal Tesources : (1) substitution, (2) recycling, and (3) utilizing lower-grade ores.
