Techemet is a smelter and recycler of platinum group metal scrap. Headquartered in Pasadena, Texas, our main function is the
recovery of Pt, Pd and Rh from scrap automobile catalytic converters. Initial work on our smelter was started in 1987 and
full scale production at our original facility began in 1989. We have grown in capacity and expertise to the point where
we have become one of the foremost recyclers of automobile catalysts in the world.
Innovation is the key to success. Along with developing our own refining process we have completed the commissioning of a rotary kiln.
This kiln enables us to roast petro-chemical catalysts. We can now accept manifested PGM bearing catalysts.
Techemet purchases material worldwide. For a more in depth view of our operations please enter the web site.
