When sent for recycling using Tetronics' plasma arc technology the catalyst is first de-canned and the honeycomb ceramic part is crushed into a powder to be fed into the furnace. Tetronics claims to recover in excess of 98% of the PGMs present in the catalyst, which it traps in a 'collector metal'. The process can be equally applied to the ...
