Expertise in Spent Catalyst Export License
A spent catalyst is one that has lost its efficiency in offering a catalyst for industrial processes which entails the application of services in petroleum refining, chemical manufacturing processes, and pharmaceutical industries. Although spent catalysts are less active as when they are fresh, they are laden with precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and nickel and for this reason are economically interesting for recycling and recovery. The disposal of spent catalysts from India is controlled, and anyone who wishes to export the material must first do so under the permission of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MOEF&CC). Spent catalyst export license is designed to make sure that export of potential hazardous wastes does not pollute this country’s environment in a negative way, and that exports are not dumping hazardous wastes in this country without regard for the environmental consequences. It is wise to regulate it because spent catalysts may contain poisonous agents that are dangerous when not properly disposer. Licensing also consists of environmental permits to protect the effects on the environment and support recycling influx to be eco-friendly.
At the end of the effectiveness of the catalysts, they are removed from the apparatus and cleaned. This used catalyst is termed as “spent”, they are usually regenerated, recycled or replaced depending to the type and economic viability. Used catalysts are typically reused to extract precious metal such as platinum or nickel especially in areas of petrochemical industries and manufactures.
Import Export Code (IEC):
Obtaining an IEC from the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) is mandatory for all exporters in India. This code is essential for conducting any export activities, including hazardous materials like spent catalysts.
Hazardous Waste Export Authorisation:
The export of spent catalysts, classified as hazardous waste, requires authorization from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF & CC). This is governed by the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Rules.
Exporters must submit Form 5 to the MoEF & CC along with necessary documents, including proof of prior informed consent from the importing country and a legal bond or insurance policy covering the shipment.
No Objection Certificate (NOC):
After reviewing the application, the MoEF & CC issues a No Objection Certificate if all conditions are met. This certificate is crucial for ensuring compliance with environmental regulations during transit.

The application should include:
a) Details of the waste to be exported.
b) Environmental safeguards in place for handling and disposal.
b) Insurance cover for possible damage to the environment during transport.
A copy of the application must be sent to the relevant State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) for acknowledgment.
