Catalytic converter recycling is the process of recovering precious metals from used catalytic converters. The process involves removing the catalytic converter from the vehicle, disassembling it into its core components, and extracting valuable metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium. These metals are then melted for use in new catalytic converters and other industries. This recycling process minimizes waste and promotes environmental sustainability.
Catalytic converters are collected from end-of-life vehicles or from scrap yards. They are then transported to a recycling facility.
The catalytic converters are disassembled to remove the ceramic substrate, which contains the valuable metals.
The ceramic substrate is then processed to extract the valuable metals, such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium.
