Platinum Catalyst Recycling
Why spent catalyst is an important secondary resource.
Spent catalysts, assay, recovery accounting, supply chains, criticality, thrifting and secondary supply.
Why spent catalyst is an important secondary resource.
Inventory, classification, secure storage, ownership and recycling pathways.
Why representative sampling matters when valuing recoverable platinum.
Material accounting from spent catalyst to recovered PGM without extraction instructions.
Mining, refining, catalyst manufacture, use, collection and recycling as one material system.
Why concentrated supply and essential catalyst uses matter to resilience.
Reduce platinum requirement while preserving catalyst function.
Design, recover and remanufacture catalyst systems with material loops in mind.
Why catalyst material footprint must be compared with the process benefits the catalyst enables.
Recycled automotive, industrial and energy-system materials as sources of platinum-group metals.
Catalytic converters, chemical/petroleum catalysts and hydrogen technologies as major demand categories.
Inventory, recycling, supplier diversity and substitution as resilience tools.
