The present paper describes a method for predicting the imminence (hereafter referred to as 'quality') of the chemical composition of a recycled alloy to that of a standard alloy of aluminum recycled alloy made from aluminum scrap (used automotive components). The method has been validated experimentally, and the results obtained showed that the composition of the recycled alloy was close to that of the predicted one. These findings indicate that the present method can be effectively used for any other recycled alloys to predict the alloy composition based on the in-coming scrap alloys. A deviation factor has been defined in order to understand the composition of the recycled alloy obtained with reference to the ASTM alloy.
