Aluminum has experienced significant growth in several sectors over the last decade as a result of its properties and performance attributes. Aluminum is being recognized by different sectors such as automotive, construction, aerospace, etc. as a one of the best candidate material for various applications. Increasing demand for aluminum-based products and further globalization of the aluminum industry have contributed significantly to the higher consumption of aluminum scrap for re-production of aluminum alloys. In automotive applications, for example, the opportunities for continued growth in powertrain and suspension applications plus lightweighting of body structures offer the potential for considerable further growth. Today, a large amount of the aluminum going into new products is coming from recycled products. This represents a growing "energy bank" of aluminum that will become available for recycling at the end of vehicles' lives, and thus recycling is becoming a major issue, and it is essential to tackle this problem before it is too late. The future growth offers opportunity for new recycling technologies and practices to maximize scrap quality, improve efficiency and reduce cost. The present paper highlights some of the current development work in recycling, the challenges facing the implementation of recycling technologies and the future prospective of the idea.

El reciclaje de aluminio ha aumentado en los últimos años en un 5% anual. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la aportación en términos de energía potencial de acuerdo con el aluminio enviado a reciclaje, el cual es generado en las actividades diarias de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Ingeniería y Tecnología de la Universidad Autónoma de Baja California (FCITEC-UABC). La metodología empleada consistió en realizar una investigación documental de los registros de latas de aluminio enviadas a reciclaje durante 2018 y 2019 y con base en el Modelo Individual de Residuos de la Environmental Agency Protection (iWARM-EPA) determinar su equivalente en unidades de energía. De acuerdo con los registros de FCITEC-UABC durante el periodo de análisis, se enviaron a reciclaje 177.7 kilogramos de latas de aluminio, equivalente a 13, 600 unidades, con base en estos datos y el modelo utilizado, la facultad aporta con este material enviado a reciclaje, un potencial de ahorro de energía neta equivalente a 3960.3 kWh[1]. Éstos, por ejemplo, equivalen a 300,000 horas disponibles, para su uso en focos ahorradores de 60W o 79,000 en computadoras portátiles.[1] Kilovatio-hora
