Utilizing the past corporate experience and expertise, Regenx has been successful in creating a technology the solved both the chemical and mechanical processes required to economically extract the precious metals from diesel silicon carbide catalytic converters in an eco-freindly manner.
Core materials are separated from the metal containers and ground to fine powder
Pt and Pd are extracted from the ground materials into solution through chemical processes
Pt and Pd are recovered as a concentrate from the solution utilizing precipitation
The concentrate is sent to a refinery for upgrading and sale

Diesel SiC converters present challenges for traditional smelting methods, often leading to higher processing costs or outright refusal by smelters. By specializing in Diesel SiC converter recycling, Regenx offers a cost-effective solution that fills a market niche with an innovative solution for a market segment that is growing due to increased regulations and transitioning to electrification at a slower pace that the gasoline market.
RegenX's innovative technology for processing SiC converters minimizes environmental impact by reducing the need for mining and refining raw materials. By recovering PGMs from recycled SiC converters, RegenX contributes to the circular economy, lowering carbon emissions and conserving natural resources, which aligns with global sustainability goals.

Regenx has a partnership with Davis Recycling Inc., a leading player in the automotive recycling industry on the Eastern seaboard of the United States. This partnership provides access to the required supply of feedstock at optimal pricing while diverting more product from ending up in landfills.
RegenX works closely with smelters to provide a viable outlet for SiC converters, which are often rejected by traditional processing methods. This collaboration not only helps smelters reduce operational issues but also opens up new revenue streams for both parties by making previously unusable materials valuable again.
