Destructive recovery
of lost PGM
100% Recovery
For the retrieval of 100% of the PGM from scrap components or decommissioned plant, destructive PGM recovery is the most viable option. When plants or individual components have reached their life expectancy and are scheduled for decommissioning or removal, they can be treated by more aggressive means for full PGM and scrap metal value.
Using aggressive chemical solutions under controlled and agreed methods, this process provides 100% PGM recovery.
RSBruce have undertaken more destructive PGM recoveries than anyone else in this industry, we were the first company offering destructive recovery of PGM materials over 35+ years ago!
Safe handling and size
reduction
Resizing in a controlled purpose-built environment. It is important to ensure that resizing of plant and equipment is done is in a correct way and environment.
Incorrect cutting could lead to substantial losses of PGM’s
Continuous improvement
As we are an ISO registered company you can be assured that we have externally audited quality control procedures in place covering our operations.
Chemical Processing
After destructive processing to recover the PGM materials the steel from the boiler shell and coils are totally clean. Nothing can recover as much as destructive cleaning where everything is recovered from every surface. BEWARE: Some operators that do not have the destructive capabilities or experience and facilities that we have may state that on-site jetting can recover more than destructive cleaning. This is simply not correct!
Decommissioned
plant purchase
Decommissioned nitric acid plants are a major asset and valuable commodity to be realised.
RSBruce works in conjunction with Johnson Matthey, a partnership that has spanned over thirty years, and together we have a major network of field agents and offices worldwide.
We are constantly in talks with all the major nitric acid producers and as such, hold a global portfolio of potential buyers for plant and equipment. Following a no obligation consultation.
RSBruce can liaise with both the plant owners and potential buyer – playing a vital role throughout the negotiation, dismantle and relocation.
