METAL CATALYST RECYCLING
A RECYCLING NETWORK FOR TOTAL FLEXIBILITY
A wide range of catalysts is used in the oil refining, petrochemical and chemical industries today, with more types and levels of poisons.
GREENCO has been working for many years to develop processes and routes that provide the flexibility to cope with these variations.
We can provide you with economically viable routes for the recycling of all metals from molybdenum to cobalt, nickel, arsenic and beyond.
GREENCO offers spent hydrotreating catalyst treatment and recycling. New technology has been developed to maximize metal recovery from spent refining hydrotreating catalysts used to remove sulfur and other contaminants from products like gasoline and diesel fuel. Our services are comprehensive and will include:
- Collection of the spent catalysts from your facility
- Providing all regulatory required paperwork
- Transporting the spent catalysts in sealed UN/DOT-approved hazardous material transportation containers
- Drive off the organics and change the metals from sulfides to oxides through calciner roasting technology
- Providing the treated catalysts to companies who will extract the valuable metals in their production processes
- Potentially sending a portion of the proceeds to your company
With GREENCO, spent catalysts are processed efficiently. No liquid discharges are produced, eliminating steps to clean excess liquid waste, and the use of water is minimized throughout the process.
The Recycling Process
GREENCO recycling process begins with sampling, analyses, and evaluation, in order to determine the most suitable route for recycling the metals on your catalyst.
