D2O Recovery

The Silantes D₂O Return Program

Deuterium oxide is a valuable and rare raw material, the production of which is very complex and resource intensive. Do the environment a favor and do not discard your depleted D₂O but return it to the cycle!

Silantes has recently started offering a D₂O return program. You can send your depleted D₂O back to Silantes to receive a credit. Since Silantes is based in Munich, Germany, this will also avoid long shipping distances within Europe.

The credit you receive for recycling your depleted D₂O can be applied to your next order. This way you conserve resources and turn your D₂O waste into cash.

To be eligible for Silantes’ D₂O return program, the depleted D₂O should be free of pathogens and other living cells.

The credit is calculated as follows:

Credit = amount of depleted D₂O [kg] x isotopic enrichment [atom % D] * 150 €.

Example: By returning 5kg D₂O of 92 atom % D, you will receive a credit of 690€.

If you do not know the exact isotopic enrichment of your depleted water, your credit will be calculated based on a reasonable estimate by you. Once we receive your depleted D₂O, we will measure the actual isotope enrichment with a Fourier Transformation Infrared Spectrometer and account for the difference from the estimated value.
