RECYCLING OF AUTOMOTIVE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS AND OXYGEN (LAMBDA) SENSORS
Efficient recycling of automotive catalytic converters – precision and trust MAIREC is your reliable partner for the recovery of precious metals from automotive catalytic converters.
With state-of-the-art technology and years of experience, we provide tailored solutions for ceramic and metallic catalytic converters, diesel particulate filters and lambda sensors. Trust our expertise for maximum yield and transparent processes.
Ceramic catalysts
The ceramic body of a catalyst (monolith) honeycomb contains thinly walled channels, coated typically with platinum, palladium, and rhodium which provide the catalytic effect in the exhaust gas stream.
Whether whole ceramic converters, semi-crushed monolith, or ground monolith – high-precision processing is standard at MAIREC.
Metal foil catalysts
The precious metals carrier of metal foil catalysts consists of a thin, corrugated, tightly wound metal foil. Recycling this material is very challenging and labor-intensive.
MAIREC has developed its own highly efficient technology for this, delivering the best results on the market.
Diesel particle filters
DPFs, also known as diesel particulate filters, reduce the harmful particles present in diesel engine exhaust. Their porous walls are usually made of silicon carbide (SiC) and also contain precious metals.
Oxygen sensors
An oxygen sensor is a device that measures the oxygen content in a vehicle’s exhaust stream, allowing the engine management system to regulate the correct fuel–air mixture.
For end-of-life oxygen sensors, MAIREC has developed an especially innovative recycling solution.
Highly effective, proprietary technology
At MAIREC you benefit from the highest standards and meticulous precision in separation, homogenizing, sampling, and value determination.
In addition to a modern and highly effective solution for ceramic materials, our unique, self-developed separation technology for metal catalysts and lambda sensors guarantees the best results on the market.
