Catalytic converter recycling

Did you know that catalytic converters contain platinum, palladium and rhodium which are extremely valuable precious metals that can be recycled?

Catalytic converters are emission control devices found in automobiles, motorcycles, electrical generators, mining equipment and other exhaust systems. They work to reduce toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas into less toxic pollutants. It is coated with chemical catalyst and a combination of platinum, rhodium and/or palladium which then converts the vehicle harmful emissions into non-harmful or less-harmful gases.

A clogged catalytic converter leads to reduced engine performance and thereby emitting more harmful and toxic gases in the environment.
