Abstract
Non-ferrous metals offer several benefits over ferrous metals and are essential in many sectors. They are perfect for use in the electrical, automotive, aerospace, construction, and packaging sectors because they have desired qualities including high electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and lightweight. Non-ferrous metals are a group of metals that don't primarily consist of iron. Due to their distinctive qualities and diverse applications, these metals have a substantial industrial significance. An overview of non-ferrous metals' characteristics, applications, and environmental implications is given in this chapter.
