BMW 6 Series Convertible

Let's look closer at a worn catalyst and its possible alternative applications. Catalysts play a key role in reducing air pollution by converting harmful vehicle gas emissions into safe elements. They have become mandatory components of Euro standards due to the growth of the automobile fleet. However, they are prone to wear and tear and usually fail after traveling approximately 70,000 to 100,000 miles in a car. Poor maintenance and the use of low-quality fuel can accelerate this process. However, should you immediately get rid of a faulty BMW 6 Series Convertible catalytic converter (catalyst) once it has reached the end of its useful life? Can it still be useful despite the fact that it does not fulfill its primary function? Let's analyze this question and consider the potential value of a used catalytic converter.

Catalytic converter value

The catalytic converter is a piece of technical magic located right next to the exhaust manifold inside a vehicle. Its primary job is to convert harmful gases from the exhaust system into safer compounds such as water and nitrogen when exposed to high temperatures. Gasses go through ceramic honeycomb cells coated with a catalytic layer inside a metal jacket. The layer contains valuable catalyst metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium that act as redox enhancement ingredients, speeding up chemical reactions and turning harmful components into harmless ones. These metals give even used catalysts a second life and value that is presented mainly on metal exchange markets.

Catalytic converter price

The pricing policy in the catalytic converter recycling market does not take into account the car brand or its power, as car manufacturers often purchase exhaust systems from third-party manufacturers. That is why the regulation of the catalytic converter recycling market does not depend on the vehicle brand. The power output of the vehicle also does not affect the catalytic price as the content of precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and rhodium can vary significantly for each given “cat”. Therefore, the price of a BMW 6 Series Convertible catalyst is only affected by the presence of precious metals in the catalyst. To find out the cost of your catalyst, you need to enter its serial number on AutoCatalystMarket and find information about the Manufacturer as well as potential Buyers company near you.

Catalytic converter scrap price

To start the catalyst recycling process, we must scrap catalytic converter honeycomb into powder. Potential Buyers are also interested in purchasing this raw material. If you would like to learn more about pricing, visit AutoCatalystMarket where you can find contact information to get in touch with a Buyer who will walk you through the entire catalytic recycling process and provide pricing.

Catalytic converter recycling

A complex of technological measures to perform catalytic recycle includes three main stages. At first, catalysts are subjected to grinding at specialized yards. The resulting material is then compressed into convenient forms for spectral analysis, which determines the percentage content of platinum, palladium, and rhodium. Based on the analysis results, the value of the material is determined with catalytic converter price per kg and the entire batch is sent for extraction and purification of precious metals from the feedstock.
