Major Objective of Coming Drive for Cans in Bath
Bath aims to collect tin cans in early August while stressing steel recovery. John Parker, chair of the Bath Salvage Committee, notes less than 2 percent of a can is tin and the rest is No. 2 steel. Tin poisons steel, so detinning separates metals before reuse. Cans from the area are usually sent to detinning plants in Pennsylvania or New Jersey.
