As spent catalyst recycling specialists, RTS buy and ship hazardous wastes containing precious metals such as rhodium, platinum, palladium, chromium, molybdenum, nickel, vanadium, and more to Hongjing Resource Company, Ltd. in the Republic of Korea for spent catalyst recycling. These precious metals are rare and valuable, which means that they need to be handled by experienced professionals like the teams at RTS and Hongjing.
Why it is vital to recycle spent catalysts
Spent catalyst recycling is essential in today’s environmentally conscious world. Industrial catalysts are designed to reduce CO2 emissions through a process known as “desulfurization”. The metals present in the catalyst are precious because they are rare natural resources that are also finite in quantity. Recycling these precious metals recovered saves energy and prevents them from otherwise being wasted. Therefore, the recovery of these metals via spent catalyst recycling operations is fundamental to the continuation of oil refineries and other industrial facilities. Most importantly of all, the spent catalyst recycling process is essential to the protection of the environment.
RTS always aims to use the most environmentally friendly techniques possible when it comes to their recycling processes. The team behind RTS, including CEO Sarah Gautier and President Kevin Berry, would like to urge more companies to adopt an eco-minded approach to handling waste like spent catalysts, especially given the recent global focus on sustainability and environmental protection.
The spent catalyst recycling process
The catalyst to be recycled is generally bought back from oil refineries. During recycling, the various precious metals contained in the catalyst are separated and treated to remove any polluting components. The recycled parts of the catalyst can be resold, reused, or passed on to professionals, depending on the type of metal.
As part of this recycling process, RTS provides accurate sampling services that are fully documented. They have also invested heavily in cutting-edge sampling equipment. They believe this precision, transparency and financial investment is crucial to their work, because sampling is such a critical step in the overall recycling process. It allows them to accurately determine the residual amount of the three precious metals in a batch of spent catalyst, making the whole operation more efficient, eco-friendly and economically sustainable.
