摘要: Substance flow analysis (SFA) provides a helpful tool for the study of industrial metabolism certain substance within regional level. This paper presents SFA steel in four countries, namely Australia, Brazil, China and India. These countries are traditionally economically mineral dependent major contributors global iron ore production. For example, 2010 together these produced 81% world ore. Based on it was found that Australian Brazilian stocks will deplete rapidly while India accumulating. then discussion sustainability issues related to flows stocks. The is aimed at providing better understanding inform policy making achieving consequently leading management resources recycling under study.
