Why Recycle Palladium?
Palladium is a critical metal for the green transition, used in catalytic converters, hydrogen purification, and renewable energy technologies. However, mining 1 ton of palladium requires processing ~10,000 tons of ore, generating massive CO₂ emissions. Recycling palladium scrap reduces this environmental burden by:
90% less energy consumption vs. primary production (Johnson Matthey Report, 2023)
Preventing 12 tons of mining waste per kilogram recovered
Cutting water pollution from acid mine drainage
