TMAC

Refine

 

Platinum, Palladium, Rhodium and Iridium

using the same technology.

Closed 
System.

Zero Loss

 

TMAC is the first technology ever to recover and refine Pt, Pd, Rh, and Ir using the same technology for all four elements. As a result, all refining residues from each of the metals can be recombined with fresh incoming feed thereby closing the system entirely.

Technology 
Characteristics.

   Separation

 

  • Rhotec resin is used to produce a base metal free PGM stream

  • TMAC technology uses the Rhotec stream to achieve separation of Pt, Pd, Rh, and Ir

  • Purity of each element exceeds 99.95%

  • Closed refining system allows 100% recovery of all PGM

  • OPEX is about 1/3 the cost of conventional technologies

  • CAPEX is about 1/3 the cost of conventional technologies

  • No flammable solvents are used

Fewer 
Steps.

Simple

 

Current commercial PGM refiners use a different refining technique for each element, creating 4 separate waste streams that are not compatible, leading to complexity and losses.
