Question:

aluminum recyclables??? [Question in details]?

Other then pop cans, what else is aluminum that can be recycled?

Answer:

all of it.
Anything made of aluminum can be recycled. Aluminum cans are just a visible item that can be used for social engineering purposes. The cans also are very pure form of the metal. You will find aluminum in many things, from parts in your computer, major parts in your family car, pots, pans, kitchen items, tools, display items, structural supports for various things, boats, canoes, airplanes, and the list is long. Fact is, it would be difficult to find many items where aluminum was NOT used. Although everything that is metal that a magnet would not stick to, is not always aluminum. ANY metal can be recycled, and most metals can be sorted for recycling when you find a recycling plant that will buy the materials. Some of the metals need to be in large quantity, or weight in order to be worthwhile sorting. Some things like batteries can be sorted by general type. Some of those are easier to break down to component metals than others. Some have hazardous substances in them so need care in storage, and some have hazardous substances that need special care in shipping them. But they are exception.
