Why not offer the whole thing to a scrap-metal dealer? When they melt
it down they'll recover the different metals...

So... How do I take it apart? It was assembled from steel plates, can
it be therefore disassembled?


Yeah, remove any bolts, and start splitting the iron core segments
apart (they are probably alternating meshed E and I pieces). Once you
get the first few out the rest will come easier. I'd use an
appropriately sized screwdriver and hammer...
