From waste!! Gram‐negative bacteria from the genus Cupriavidus can serve as a scaffold for the absorption and reduction of palladium(II) contained in industrial waste solutions. The resulting cell‐supported palladium(0) nanoparticles were active for catalysis of CC bond formation. This method offers an economically competitive source of palladium(0) via recovery from metal‐containing waste.
