Recycling : A self‐contained procedure for the recycling of BNH‐waste, based on the three major steps: polymer break‐up, amine supported catalytic hydrodehalogenation of boron halogens, and the base exchange in borane amine adducts, is developed (see picture). Beyond the original task of recycling spent ammonia borane, the process provides a new means to produce borohydride species efficiently, by the direct use of molecular hydrogen.
