OGN Interview with Ruben Salagre, Development Manager, London Chemicals & Resources

In our recent interview, Ruben Salagre, Development Manager at London Chemicals and Resources, discusses how the company is advancing circular solutions in the refining and petrochemical sectors. London Chemicals and Resources provides commercially competitive recycling options for a wide range of non-ferrous by-products — including spent catalysts, residues, slags, sludges, and ashes — with a strong emphasis on environmentally sound management. Partnering with fully licensed recycling facilities in Europe and the Far East, the company works to ensure spent catalysts are recovered and transformed into high-quality metal salts used in new catalyst manufacturing, pigments, and CO₂ removal processes. A key message from Ruben: avoid disposal wherever possible and close the loop. Through customized recycling solutions and support with notification procedures, they help generators move toward full circularity while maintaining commercial viability.
