Abstract

Shanghai is the largest industrial and commercial city of China, where in-use stocks of metals are likely to be significant. The in-use stocks of copper in this city are thus established by an extensive “bottom-up” study. Spatial distribution of copper stocks within Shanghai has further been characterized for better understanding of copper utilization pattern of this city. For the year 2012, the results are a total stock of 914.6Gg Cu, and 38.4–64.1kg Cu per capita. Nearly 94% of copper stocks distribute in subcategories of electric power transmission and distribution, water transmission and distribution, buildings, and household durable. Features of spatial distribution show that three central districts of Jing An, Hong Kou and Huang Pu have the spatial density of more than 1Gg/km2. And Chong Ming county and Jin Shan District have the lowest spatial density of about 0.01Gg/km2. It has been found that the copper stock density within Shanghai is largely determined by population density and economic development level.
