Modern methods of recycling spent automotive catalysts and their main disadvantages in industrial practice are considered. The electrochlorination method is proposed as the basis of the platinum-group metals (PGM) recycling technology. As the test of proposed technology a few tons of spent automotive catalysts were processed. The results of the work on the extraction of platinum, palladium, rhodium are analyzed. The extraction rates during experiments were reached for Pt - 97%, Pd - 97% and Rh - 80%.

Since 1998 demand for the platinum group metals (PGM) has exceeded supply resulting in large price increases. Undersupply, combined with rising costs prompts environmentally friendly recycling technologies. Leachates containing PGM were produced from secondary waste sources using microwave leaching technology with the aim of recovering precious metals using bacterial biomass. Previous studies showed that metallised biomass exhibits catalytic activity; hence metal is not only recovered but can be converted into a valuable product. Cells of Escherichia coli MC4100 that had been pre-metallised with Pt were more effective at reducing PGM from the leachates. The solid recovered from the leachate onto the bacteria was characterised using X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Microanalysis (EDX). Metallised biomass was tested for catalytic activity (reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III)) to compare the ‘quality’ of polymetallic bacterial-based catalysts versus counterparts made from single and mixed metal model solutions.
