Recycling catalysts with electrochemistry

Researchers have found a way to improve recovery of same state, or homogeneous, catalysts that are important to industry. The process uses electrochemistry to separate out the precious metal catalysts and uses less energy than current methods, reducing the carbon footprint of separating out the catalyst once a reaction is done. Download this story and the accompanying summary slide with questions to add a new context when teaching ways to reclaim catalysts to your 14–16 learners.
