Abington Reldan Metals, LLC offers its clients refining services such as thermal destruction, melting, and mechanical reduction. In their state-of-the-art LEED-certified facility, Abington Reldan Metals, LLC refines precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. They recover precious metals from a wide range of sources, including manufacturing process materials, aerospace and military scrap, plating waste, lab materials, dental production materials, post-consumer electronic waste, and scrap from jewelry.
Palladium is a part of the platinum-group metals, including rhodium, osmium, platinum, and others. Palladium can build catalytic converters for car exhaust and reduce the amount of toxic pollutants and harmful carbon dioxide emitted by cars. It is also used in the creation of jewelry and electronics.
The autocatalysts manufactured with the use of palladium perform better than platinum-based autocatalysts. Although certain technologies that can substitute palladium with platinum are developing, the demand for palladium is still increasing as technology advances towards alternative automotive vehicles for gasoline cars.
