Substantial trade in scrap and waste is not merely an exercise in waste management, but more importantly an element in efficient materials utilization, that has significant impact on the economy. In fact, it is an environmentally desirable and friendly activity and economically worthwhile pursuing for developing countries. Secondary recycling of materials and re-integrating them into the economy is crucial in reducing the overall demand for virgin materials for the developing economies. Scrap, ash and residues generated indigenously need to be recycled. Otherwise their disposal/dispersal will undoubtedly pose greater hazard in the future. Further, recycling of scraps and residues avoids degradation of the environment. Environmental control and monitoring in lead operations will require assiduous implementation to ensure that transportation, handling and processing are managed with greater care and the entire operation is environmental friendly.
