According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Molybdenum Scrap market size was valued at US$ 3090 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 4630 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.0% during review period.
Molybdenum scrap refers to recycled molybdenum-containing materials such as spent catalysts, alloy scrap, machining chips, sintered parts, and industrial residues, which are processed and refined to recover molybdenum metal. It is widely used in steelmaking, superalloy production, chemical catalysts, metal powders, and various metallurgical applications.In 2024, global molybdenum scrap recycling volume reached approximately 210,000 tons, with an average global market price of around US$13,500 per ton.he global molybdenum scrap industry generally maintains a gross margin of 18%–32%, depending on scrap grade, processing technology, impurity removal cost, and end-market demand.The supply chain of molybdenum scrap includes upstream suppliers of spent catalysts, alloy turnings, industrial residues, machining scrap and metal recycling yards. Midstream operators perform sorting, crushing, roasting, chemical leaching, impurity removal, moly oxide production and metal recovery. Downstream users include steel mills, superalloy manufacturers, catalyst producers, metal powder producers and chemical enterprises.
The molybdenum scrap market is expanding as circular economy initiatives accelerate and raw molybdenum prices fluctuate. High steel and superalloy demand increases scrap recovery rates, while environmental policies push industries toward secondary molybdenum sources. Technological improvements in hydrometallurgical refining and catalyst recycling enhance yield and reduce processing cost.
