Impact Of Iron Scrap Recycling On Sustainable Development In Sudan period (2005 -2019) (Case Study Of Giad Steal Industries And Omdurman Industrial District)

Abstract

Abstract Recycling is the process of convening waste materials into new materials and objects. In general, iron and steel scrap recycling involves collection, sorting, baling, packaging, cutting, shearing, shredding and/or sizing, possibly also cryogenic processes, and final melting at the steel-works Due to that the study aimed to examine the impact of iron scrap recycling on sustainable development in Sudan in a period between (2005-2019) by taking the case study of Giad Steal Industries and Omdurman Industrial District, most importantly the study depends on the primary data source such as the questioner for iron scrap workers in the Omdurrnan Industrial District and interviewing the workers of iron scrap in addition to the secondary data source such as the annual reports of Giad Steal Industries and the books. The main question of the study is that, does iron scrap recycling have influence on sustainable development in Sudan?. The study assumed that there is a significant relationship between iron scrap recycling and sustainable development in Sudan by taking the SDGs as measurements. The theoretical importance of the study comes to support the researchers in modem science and the empirical importance to a evaluate the sustainable development goals in Sudan and to enable decision takers to make and to take accurate and rational decisions.The study processed the data theoretically through the analyzing the literature review and analytically through the (SPSS,EVIEWS).Finally the important findings of the study firstly, Giad Steel Industries sustains the natural resources by recovering 180000 tons annually . Secondly Giad Steel Industries applies the environmental impact assessment through ISO ( I400l)which reduces the negative impact of the manufacturing process on the environment. Thirdly based on findings of field study that, iron scrap sector is a random sector without a legal framework, in addition the govemment policies are the main blocks toward achieving the SDGs Due to that the study is highly recommending to adapt the intemational models like the Japanese and the Gennan models of recycling in order to support this green industry and that will result in economical likewise environmental benefits. The key words : Recycling ,Iron waste , Environment ,Sustainable development , Giad Steel Industries.
