Don’t know where you got your information but when copper is too expensive for large scale electrical applications, generally it’s aluminum that’s used not steel. It conducts electricity far better than steel and steel actually has far worse corrosion resistance than copper
A lot of Aluminum Wire is what is known as ACSR which is Aluminum Conductor, Steel Reinforced which is where there is a steel core of the aluminum cable, to provide more strength for long spans of cable across poles or towers.

Since glass fiber cables don't need repeater equipment anymore when crossing oceans, undersea data cables contain little to no copper at all. I also have never heard of under sea cable recycling. Sending out a ship to collect it would cost more than the value of the recycled copper, and all new cables are on top of the oldest cables, so dragging up the old cables would damage the new cables. Recycling is good but this video makes no sense at all.
@@jwstolk Glass fibre (fibreoptic) cables that cross oceans very much DO need repeaters every 60m to 400m depending on cable design. They require a copper conductor as a path to power those repeaters.
My prediction is that eventually old rubbish dumps will be mined for their resources. Up until quite modern times everything went to land fill, cars, machinery, factory waist, not much at all was recycled. By the time metal prices become high enough to make it worthwhile all the biodegradable stuff will have been broken down into dirt leaving mainly glass, rubber, plastic and the valuable metals. Not much iron of course but a lot of the non ferrous metals including gold, silver and copper. Thousands of car batteries were dumped. Gold? Tons of old furniture was dumped and a lot from deceased estates some of which would have had gold jewellery hidden in them. I’m old enough to remember seeing these things being tossed. There were no gates or fences people were free to scavenge the dumps and it was amazing the stuff that would turn up. That certainly was a different era.
Landfill ming has been going on since the 1990's. I had a client who owned a landfill and he began mining. It accomplished 2 things: The value of the material being mined, and the air space being recovered.
I remember going to the dump and finding anything and everything, my dad found a wedding ring and I scored a bunch of bike we would fix up. Those were the days, indeed the saying ‘one mans trash is another mans treasure’ lives on🤠
Wym great depression to ww2 people recycled. Just that now its plastic and you need a lot to make something. Back then take in a good piece of heavy metal and come out with a day or 2 worth of pay back then.
During the Cold War, we put listening devices under the Soviet cables in the North Sea. The Soviets would lift the cable to inspect it, see no damage or tampering, then lay it back on the listening device. We had ears on their northern fleet for like 15 years!
@@rosewhite--- IDK if they heard it but the Glomar Explorer is the ship Hughes built for the CIA to recover the sub. The sub broke in half during the recovery. We pulled up a few sailors and gave them proper burials at sea.

Every item of manufacture that Humans make should be recyclable & there should be no waste, what is this Planet going to be like for our Children & Grand Children etc unless People face up to the problem of WASTE.
As people continue to regress and more immigration from the 3rd world low iq nations continues to flood the west ,pollution will only continue to get worse.
There's already vast armies of the unemployable picking up scrap metal. If only glass and plastic and paper were worth money then those would be diverted from the landfills as well.
I see some who make living picking glass and beer cans. And working in automotive industry we recycle almost everything, especially electrical components that contain copper, platinum.
In around 1890 s the British empire had cable from lands end to every continent tens of thousands of miles ,and you can go down to sea and see them still going into the surf ,why don't they recycle those 🤔
All metals, cardboard and glass recycle as well. Been a decline in recycling on those. Got bring em up. Even if prices are low. Take that money out for the cheap recycling and save it. Will add up after a few trips
This is what comes of using a $5 word without knowing how to use it, when a 10-cent one would do better. Did you notice all the spelling mistakes in the chapter headings?
yes, because it provides cheaper, faster (both latency and throughput wise) solution. not to mention it connects starlink ground stations it's also true on land where it provides backbone for mobile networks. even wifi uses almost always cables for access points inside buildings
A whole lot of wrong information, filler that has nothing to do with underwater cables. So I give this video a thumbs down for accuracy and content. Try again!
Copper can be recycled indefinitely as it does not degrade when processed. Recycling scrap copper can reduce emissions and energy output compared to production from virgin materials as well as protect our natural resources.
Yes, especially those audiophile cables with price tag of a few thou of $ from 6N, or better, copper which supposedly enhance the listening quality of music, or so they say
@@rosewhite--- come to my ranch Lol copper so old feels like its bout dissolve in hand when picked up. Falls pieces. Old old copper wires. From old home that no long exist
Copper does corrode - it all depends on environment it is in. A bit it acid, salt or their fumes and it will disappear in a while. And how about car wiring failing, for eg. when wrong type of coolant is used - also type of copper corrosion. In general everywhere where there's current flow and wire is exposed to chemicals there's corrosion.

AMAZING
cable are life time materials need of people in this world.
Did not catch how underwater cable recycling turned into review of steel products, but... for God's sake - it is CONCRETE not CEMENT
Authors don't care. They don't even care that underwater internet cables aren't made or copper, of course. They just don't give a sh*t.
I hate it when people say that. They sound so ignorant. Cement is an ingredient in concrete only the powder.
There's your satellites communication. It's all cables under the ocean 😂😂😂😂😂
Satellites hang on balloons, there not what people think. And 95 percent of communication go through under sea cables

So what’s your solution? Besides crying about it on YT.
get the homeless and those who dont ever want to work, drug addicts and criminals, to the landfills and start separating waste.

I thought I was going to watch the process of recycling underwater cables, not a infomercial on the different companies that work copper
Recycle your stainless too ...
Recycle everything but plastic. You're not helping the earth at all by doing so.

I recycle beer all the time!
The background sound makes the documentry impossible to watch for people with hearing impairment.
This is like a book report using stock clips and inaccurate information. However I did click.. so they got paid....
Hey jest remember the man or woman you see picking up junk they are do so to make money or extra money . Be kind to them
And this is why off shore "green energy" is not so green.....!!!!!!!
Now the sea gypsies will go out and steal all the cables from the bottom of the sea
Hey Provider, the narrator is terrible. The sign songy voice of the girl reading is like nails on a chalk board. Cannot bare to listen.

What a load of rubbish..
The cost of retrieving cables from the bottom of the ocean would outweigh it's value
Years ago. But as prices go up and mines are harder open. Its worth it if enough in an area but spread out not worth it
Just burn it. ;-) Saves time on copper recovery.
You can just throw everything in a shredder and have it separated threw electromagnetic
A bit like how this video was made.
So almost zero content of actual underwater cables being recycled. Thanks for wasting my time.
Hypnotic my ass.
