Research Summary

Iridium recycling involves the recovery and reuse of iridium metal from various sources, primarily scrap materials and end-of-life products containing iridium. Iridium is a rare and valuable metal that belongs to the platinum group metals (PGMs) and is used in a variety of high-tech applications, including electronics, automotive catalysts, medical devices, and aerospace components. Due to its scarcity and high demand, recycling iridium from scrap materials is economically and environmentally beneficial, reducing the need for new mining and conserving natural resources. Iridium recycling typically involves processes such as collection, sorting, refining, and purification of iridium-containing materials, followed by smelting or chemical extraction to recover pure iridium metal. The recovered iridium can then be reused in various industrial applications, contributing to the sustainability and circular economy principles by closing the material loop and minimizing waste generation.
