Towards a circular economy for platinum in Europe
Résumé
Around 40% of the platinum used in EU catalytic converters is not recovered for recycling and is therefore 'lost' forever, indicates a new study. A more circular economy for platinum is essential to reduce imports of this critical raw material to the EU and minimise its damaging effects on the environment, the researchers argue. Better collection systems for end-of-life catalytic converters and tighter regulation of waste exports could help close the loop on platinum.
