where to process cats

[scrappy2]

we have been scrapping cars for a year and we get about 80 converters a month...with the price of platnium and the other metals in them we would like to have them processed to remove the prious metals...do you know where we would have that done..

[bradyboy]

precious metals in car exhaust converters?
news to me, please explain
I'm not doubting you but never heard of such a thing
if any thing the materials are caustic

Its true that some valuable metals are used in the making of catalytic converters, which is why they're so expensive when they need replacement. Scroll down to the "Technical Details" part of this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_converter
Now, as to the value/market of used converters... I can't help on that part.
