Hi, I’m Michael.
After years as an engineer and corporate manager, I founded my own consulting firm focused on sustainability solutions. Since retiring, I’ve been tackling puzzles that align seemingly conflicting interests and discovering win-win strategies with my clients. I also support a project dedicated to ocean ecology. My wife Karin and my son Alex were the first to suggest a podcast for me. As a natural optimist and father of two wonderful kids, I tend to resist gloomy predictions about our future. We probably live in the best world we ever had, with the promise of making a meaningful life accessible for a growing part of the world population, but it is imperative to keep this spirit alive. Therefore, I’ve created an antidote to scepticism: ‘Michael’s Green World.’

#18B - vom Schmelzen zum Skalieren – Edelmetalle sauber zurückgewinnen (KI-vertont mit ElevenLabs)
In dieser Folge von Michael’s Green World treffen wir Don Weatherbee (CEO) und Kara Wood von Regenx Tech Corp. – einem kanadischen Cleantech-Startup, das den Rückgewinnungsprozess von Platingruppenmetallen aus Diesel-Katalysatoren neu denkt. Ziel ist es, unsere Abhängigkeit vom Bergbau zu verringern und die ökologischen und sozialen Schäden durch das Schmelzen dieser Metalle zu begrenzen.
Wir beleuchten den Wandel von Regenx: von früheren Bergbauprojekten auf der Iberischen Halbinsel hin zu einem hydrometallurgischen Rückgewinnungsverfahren in Tennessee, USA. Gemeinsam sprechen wir über die Herausforderungen, die Emissionsversprechen, betriebliche Risiken und die Zukunft einer zirkulären Metallwirtschaft.
Was folgt, ist ein offenes Gespräch über Resilienz, Regulierung – und die Frage, ob hydrometallurgische Verfahren eine sauberere Alternative zum klassischen Schmelzen bieten können.
