The report states that data uncertainty was looked by some of the reports reviewed in this study. The continued increase in the use of metals over the twentieth century has led to a substantial shift from geological resource base to metal stocks in society. This report reviews the relevant literature on this topic. From a compilation of 54 studies, it is clear that a reasonably detailed picture of in-use stocks and in-use lifetimes exists for only five metals: aluminum, copper, iron, lead, and zinc. Limited data suggest that per capita in-use stocks in more developed countries typically exceed those in less-developed countries by factors of five to ten. Reliable data on metals stocks in society and their lifetimes are essential for building a global recycling infrastructure in the future. This report is a rewritten and enhanced version based on M. D. Gerst and T. E. Graedel, Environmental Science & Technology, 42, 7038 – 7045, 2008. Parts of it were developed at a workshop held August 15 – 16, 2008. The lead author of this report is T.E. Graedel and it was edited by the International Panel for Sustainable Resource Management, Working Group on the Global Metal Flows. Website: http://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/8438 To review data availability and estimate metal stocks in society. This information is used for estimating what quantities of primary materials could potentially be offset by the use of existing metals from in-use stocks and waste.
