In this episode of Supply Chain Dialogues, host Daniel Helmig explores an innovative solution to a pressing environmental challenge with Don Weatherbee, CEO of Regenx Tech. The company has developed a groundbreaking process for recycling precious metals from diesel catalytic converters – a material that traditional smelters typically avoid. Using a unique hydrometallurgical approach rather than conventional smelting, Regenx Tech achieves high metal recovery rates while producing virtually zero emissions compared to the 1,500kg of CO2 generated per ton through traditional methods. Located strategically in Tennessee, the company is positioned to revolutionize the circular economy of precious metals, particularly platinum and palladium, addressing critical supply chain shortages while significantly reducing the environmental impact of recycling these valuable materials. Perfect for anyone interested in sustainable innovation, automotive manufacturing, or the future of precious metal recycling.
