Overview
Oxygen (O2) sensors contain a ceramic element loaded with platinum — and most scrapyries completely ignore them. This course teaches you how to identify, value, source and recycle O2 sensors profitably.
At Stratton, we treat O2 sensors as a complementary stream that runs alongside our converter and battery operations. The margins are excellent because most competitors don't know the value is there. We'll show you exactly how to tap into this under-explored market.
The best recyclers don't just recycle one thing — they recycle everything. This course is your guide to the next stream.
