What is Spent Catalyst Processing?

Spent catalysts are industrial materials that have reached the end of their usable life in chemical reactions but still contain valuable metals. Instead of treating these as waste, LCRL facilitates their recycling through proven recovery methods such as:

  • Roasting and leaching

  • Hydrometallurgical recovery

  • Pyrometallurgical refining

  • Thermal treatment

We offer bespoke solutions tailored to the catalyst type, metal content, and industry requirements, helping our clients turn waste into value.
